All that is written in here are just my opinion which is based only on my understanding.

Introduction

Knowing which community to join in Hive Blogging is important. Communities play a vital role in making your blogging life successful. When you post in the right community, there is a great chance that many users will read your post.

Example:
Topic: Splinterlands
Right Community: Splinterlands
Alternative Community:
Thgaming
Hive Gaming
other gaming-related communities

If you post your Splinterlands article in the Splinterlands community, most people in that community will probably know what you are talking about.

But if you want to influence other users or encourage them to join, I think the best thing to do is to post in other gaming communities and tag splinterlands. By doing this, you are widening the range of your possible readers.

This method is ideal if you want others to click your referral link. But if you are posting for a contest or a specific topic that doesn't make sense to other readers outside splinterlands, the best thing to do is to post in the splinterlands community.

A Good Community

When looking for a community, the first thing I look at is the description of the community. If the community has a good description, there is a chance that its leader are organized and so is the community.

The next thing I look at is the post, are they being well-curated or people in this community will just upvote you if you are influential.

The last thing that I look at are the users getting the most curation, I read their posts and analyze if this community is just feeding this user's post.

Bonus points

If a community has a regular contest, about your topic, that is a bonus point because it encourages people to think about their post before posting it.

Because I am only new to blogging, I have joined so many communities so that I can evaluate each one of them and decide which community to maintain as my favorites.

I talk and write a lot so having a decent number of communities where I can post weekly is good for me.

How to Join a community?

•The first thing you need to know is your niche, what do you want to write about? If your purpose is just to know which community is giving more upvotes, then I think your idea about community is wrong.

•A community is a place where people interact with each other and gives value to each other's post. If you are joining a community, make sure that you give your part, not just by posting but by reading and commenting on other members posts as well.

My Top 3 Favorite Communities

Splinterlands

Community Type: Gaming

com-splinterlands.jpg

I've been a player of splinterlands since July last year, I am very aware of the game and I really like the game. I've been promoting this game on my youtube channel since august last year.

In this community, you will learn about the development of the game, different player strategies, and more!

The best thing about this community is the weekly challenges. They have 3 challenges per week which can make you really busy.

Community Type: Unique post or out of this world (that is not how they describe it, I only see it that way 😁 )
I am new in this community, In this community, you can post unusual arts and unusual music. Something that is really different.

I Like this community because the posts here are amazing, I learn something new from them in terms of art. If you are an artist who wants to express your art in a different way, people in this community will appreciate you.

Hive Learners

I know I am just new in this community to say that it is on my top 3. The reason is I like writing, I like telling people how to do stuffs. I Like doing guides on how to do things and I think this is the best community to post those types of articles. (correct me if I'm wrong)

I Like the description of the channel and its rules.

Remember that a good community in Hive is not only because the curation is big but because the people in the community engaged with its co-members.

I hope this post gave you a better understanding of what a blog community is. You can write your own criteria about what a good community is like and follow those criteria.

As a newbie, this is very helpful @jacksonizer! For the first three months, I was stuck thinking my community would only be one but the environment here at peakd is very warm and open in trying different communities. Some of the communities you have mentioned on your post - honestly I cannot relate but your tips and other communities that you like is a great start for me on my journey learning new communities. Thank you, awesome post!

Thank you for the great feedback! :)
There are still a lot of communities to be discovered here in Hive.
Good luck with your journey!
