A Few Tips For Getting The Most Out Of Veews

in The CTP Swarmlast year

About 48 hours ago, we launched Veews!

Our little piece of value to the Hive blockchain that we've been planning for years. So far, the response has been amazing and it's been awesome to see the community really embrace it.

I've spent a lot of time...Veewing! Pretty sure the only Hive member that has 'veewed' more would be @taskmaster4450 lol But I thought I'd give people a few tips that I think can really help you enjoy your experience that much more.

For both content creating as well as...Veewing!

Titles Matter

Being exposed to a lot of content over the past few days on Veews has shown me that we can all do better when it comes to giving titles to our blog posts and content.

"Day 3933 of My Blog"

Just doesn't scream...This is something I want to spend time reading.

A little shock and awe goes a lot way here but more importantly, give your readers a reason they should scan the article and spend time on it.

Speaking Of Scanning...

Try using a few elements to break up your posts....

  • Bullet points (see what I did there?)

  • Headlines within the post

  • Images

There is nothing that will scare away readers more than 7 drawn out paragraphs that are just blocks of text.

Use The Proper Tags

I know all the rage is to create posts with 20 tags, and every tribe token in them...But Veews thrives on...Content discovery. And if you want your content to be, well, discovered...Be mindful of the tags you are using.

This will help your potential reader find your content easier through the platform and focus on the content they actually want to read...Which is hopefully yours if you are using the right tags.

Use...Veews! The Whole Package!

While Veews is not a content creating platform at first glance, you can really add a ton of value to Hive, directly inside of the comment section on Veews.

Use it :)

Vote content you enjoy!

Give feedback!

Report bugs :)

Poke around and use all the features you can with Veews and help us create a much better experience for everyone!

Just a few tidbits I think can help us all get more value from Veews and our Veewing experience.

What would you suggest?

What do you think others should know to help their content stick out inside of the platform?

As always, we'd love to hear your feedback :)

Happy Veewing!

I think 5 tags can be good enough to check out on. Using veews to get the comments on content would be one of the possibility for the writers. I see some strong chance of content taking off for new authors. Keep going guys, a good project for content discovery you have got. :)

Thank you kindly :)

We'll keep updating it and get it ready for alpha launch. Should be a lot of fun!

!CTP

Thanks. My posts, hopefully, will be even better after these suggestions.

!BBH

Just always remember...Shock and awe :)

Things that grab attention, always get the most engagement.

!CTP

Another for me was paragraph after paragraph with no headings .

@jongolson! Your Content Is Awesome so I just sent 1 $BBH (Bitcoin Backed Hive) to your account on behalf of @bradleyarrow. (8/50)

Absolutely....Just break the blocks of text up, adding bullet points, headlines and or images...Helps keep attention.

Will work on it my friend. Thanks so much as always 😀

!CTP

It is a really interesting app to discover new content. I don't know if I like the idea of impacting people with eye-catching headlines or attractive photographs, I think there is already a lot of that on the web. I'm more of reading things that contribute something, but hey, maybe I'm just a weird guy.

The problem is, the majority of the people out there give content about 3 seconds to make an impression...If you don't capture their attention in that time span, they are gone.

!CTP

That sounds like a great innovation! Thank you and @taskmaster4450 for your efforts to make the Hive Blockchain bigger and with more purposes.
How can I start using Veew?

Simply go to Veews.io and sign in with Keychain. Or using the mobile app by Keychain, use their browser for full functions.

Loving the site!

Glad to hear it, thanks for testing and trying it out. We appreciate it!

!CTP

Putting the relevant tags on our post is really more important now with veews. I don't think many people will be selecting tribe tags when discovering content on the veews platform.

Hope it does help people discover relevant content too. But yup, so important to use proper tags

!CTP

I still haven't checked it and I agree that content that stands out will do better with an actual content discovery platform. I'll see if I have time to check it out over the weekend.

4 days and still haven't poked around?

Dang, we aren't doing a good job then of making something attractive to the community.

!CTP

I don't have that much free time outside of the weekend. It got dropped on Monday so I haven't really had time because I am busy enough at night trying to keep up my usual commenting for my feed.
