This article aims to provide an easy to reference list of tags that can be added to your posts in order to maximize your earnings on Hive through Second Layer Tokens.
Credit for Inspiration For this post to @bitcoinflood for their post here. It gave a me a great springboard to think about these concepts and then really dive in and expand the list quite a bit.
I've expanded the scope of the tags/tokens covered, updated descriptions & links based on what I could find, and added direct links to related Tokens for each of the projects (with links to their Tribaldex.com pages)
Overall, I think I've put about 8-9 hours of research into creating this version. I've read through all the whitepapers I could find and really did my best to make sense of each of these communities/tags.
IMPORTANT: Did I miss something? Did I get something wrong? Please let me know in the comments, I plan to keep this post up-to-date even past the rewards payouts.
Guidelines
Understand before you tag.
Check the tag's intended usage before throwing it on your post.
Here's a few reasons why:
- For the good of the community, make sure you're not "muddying the waters" by associating tags with irrelevant content.
- Many of these tags are moderated to ensure they're being used correctly. If you step out of line you may me removed from seeing any rewards of some of the tags.
- The best way to maximize your earnings REGARDLESS of the tags you use is to put content in front of people that want to see it... the right tags for the right content will help the right people see it :) The wrong tags will just put your content in front of people who don't want to see it (so they wont vote for it)
Start With Tags/Tribes That Best Match Your Content
I've done my best to add clarity to what these tags should/can be used for based on what I could research from these communities.
When you're choosing tags for your post, I highly recommend that you start first with the tags that most closely match what you're creating content around, then expand out from there to the more general tags after.
Tip: Check Your Pending Payouts Using Hive Engine Tools
This great tool from @themarkymark lets you check your pending payouts so you can see your potential token earnings across all available tokens for your posts.
