Proper Tag Usage On Steem
In this video I just share my experience with getting my first major flag for using the wrong tag on my posts. This is something to be aware of so you don't accidentally end up getting flagged too. Make sure you use very relevant tags. Unlike regular social, proper tag usage is somewhat community moderated and is generally one of the smallest offenses, but one nonetheless. I was unaware of this for a very long time, but know I know and so do you.
This is the blog I previously did about tags being informational: https://steemit.com/steemit/@scottcbusiness/lets-talk-about-tags
Now it's a step further in moderation of tags.
Repping my @Dtube hat!

ahhh dtube freezez on me when i comment and my comment doesnt end up posted ahhhh!
on topic, i hope this doesnt happen to me.
struggles lol, and yeah just ensure your tags are all relevant
I also read your other post, more tag allowance will certainly help me tag all the relevant tags

Lol glad you're just diving in, do, learn, repeat :) Loled at your random derp derp
Yeah lots to Learn here and I'm very new... But I'm loving it, catching on to the do's and don'ts and what is possible. Pretty amazing to be able to have the power of this platform. The community and just the freedom potential of ones own creativity. Can't wait to see where this all goes.
Yeah I'm really excited for the future too! Can't wait!
Get inspire with the way you promote and engage with he community especially the weekly give away method. I been flag before too by using the wrong tag. Tag really need different from steemit here to others social media platform
Thanks so much and so sorry to hear about that experience. Hopefully we standardize it a bit
Yeah, I take it as a learning and a chance to improve. Is good that steemit here have a standardize t&c. It will added value to the steemit community.
Yes that would help, but these rules are made up and enforced at random atm because it's community moderated
I see. @scottcbusiness as u have been here sometime, can you help me to have a look with my daily commentary post hashtag and an advise is appreciate whether im using the correct hashtag to my daily post.
Looks good to me my friend!
Great, in the case in continue to build good content in those tag :-)
Awesome, yes just be wary of proper tagging
count me in for giveaway
lol, cheers :)
have a question about that : when I write about a review of a game then you write gaming review and 3 more... what 3 more should be? there are none i think XD
the actual game name itself, the system it was on (xbox gaming, pc gaming), review, blog, vlog if you recorded a video. You know?
just write with my own hand but "xbox gaming" or "pc gaming" that tags don't exist in steemit no?
You just got to explore a little bit. So like "pcgaming" and "pcgamer" are tags that exist. Also a tag always exists, it just might not be popular or have been posted on yet in awhile or yet at all.
I check alphabetical the full list of tags and you can't find "pc" or "pcgaming" should be between "painting" and "people" but isn't...
You should be able to just navigate to the tag and see what's there and go off that
There are a few tags that don't exist - fun things happen when you try to make your first tag "new" for instance - but yes, for most the problem is in Steemit's listing, not in the tags themselves.
You're very right. We've seen busy for example use more tags
@scottcbusiness Great video post. Appreciate your effort. I supported 100% upvoted and resteemed.
Hey thanks I really appreciate the support
Very good contribution, thanks
Cheers, thanks for the gratitude :)
