How to Get Upvotes on your Post?

in #hive-1679222 years ago

I am grinning ear to ear. If you are here to find the tips and tricks on how to get upvotes on your post then I am sorry. You are scammed :)

I am not listing professional tips that you can follow to garner upvotes. What I am sharing today is the idea that why it is important to be this early on Leofinance and $HIVE and how things can change quickly for this project. There may be ideas on what to do for more recognition.

Early Investment - The @leofinance startup

I remember one of the podcasts where @taskmaster4450le said @Leofinance is a startup crypto project. Our time and resource is an early investment in that startup vision. We cannot expect mature products and services from this small project. The ideas that are being implemented by the project are never implemented before anywhere else. Taking decentralized blockchain and building a social media platform with no transaction fees sounds easy but is not.

I made peace with my expectations and my investment when it comes to Leo. My investment is still risky in terms of returns. I may make 100X gains but there is also a possibility that this project may not achieve all the success - price wise. Who knows.

I am okay with the results whichever way they go. But I am confident that the progress made are in the right direction and we will at least demonstrate how to be responsible of our content on web 3 platforms.

This is all good. We are blogging here on this platform means we know the risk and potential rewards. We are investing our valuable time and effort. That says something. Our time has value and the time we are putting in to this platform could be valued much higher than the earnings from our post. That is true specially if you are spending time on threads.

So, how do we generate income?

I have no idea but there are two points that may help you decide how to move forward in the ecosystem.

Engagement

We already know. This is the most cliche answer ever but that is the only answer. It does not matter how we say it but talking to others is the only way to generate income on social media platforms.

Leoverse is a social media platform with a financial twist to it. If we forget about blockchain part of this project then it is not very different from twitter or reddit. How do users generate responses on twitter and reddit? They talk to other people, bring likeable and genuine content and post consistently. Yes. we will get upvotes if we have genuine content and other users know what we bring.

It is all about your username coz we are semi-anonymous on the platform. The way people recognize your content is through your user name and previous posts.

Personal brand

I really like the idea that Khal floated during last AMA and many other AMAs before. It is about creating a personal brand.

Engaging with others and posting certain type of content will create a personal brand on $HIVE. People recognize the user name and the type of content you post in the ecosystem. For example, I associated Dalz with Hive data and bitcoinflood with crypto news and analysis.

It means user names have personal brand on $HIVE and $LEOverse. Creating that brand is crucial in getting upvotes.

Having said that, one should not sweat to rush and create a niche out of nothing. It is a natural process and depends on what you like to talk about and how you do it.

Many users have flourished on micro blogging. They are new accounts and climbed up the recognition ladder pretty quick on threads. They would never get that recognition of they had to go through the same hierarchical process on $HIVE.

I know I did not give you the answer you are looking for. But that is the answer. Interact and create your brand.

I totally agree with the engagement and branding part. Engagement is key and is often overseen. People just post their own stories and forget the interaction. It works the same on YT and other social sites. So here is a comment from me to engage. :D
!ALIVE !LOL

Look at me coming back to my post after a day :)
That's how busy the threads is. The word has been used so many times, it has lost its value. Regardless, we need to understand the basic principle behind social networking which is talking to people and gaining trust.

@rmsadkri, I sent you an $LOLZ on behalf of @chaosmagic23

(5/10)
Use the !LOL or !LOLZ command to share a joke and an $LOLZ

Hah! You made me laugh with your jokes again, dear friend. You really had me with the title.

But yeah, you haven't failed to make a lot of sense in your words. Engagement is the most clichè thing in the book but it really is one of the major keys to success on Hive and as for personal brand, let me just say, I can't be caught dead being a Finance expert or anything.

I tried to be funny but it looks like everyone is busy threading :P
I know users do not want to hear the word but that's the ultimate truth. what can I say? We should be glad that there are only 1.5K users in the platform. It is super easy to get recognized.

Really? We're that few? I thought we were well into our thousands?
The forces behind threads definitely doesn't want me there because it's one challenge after the other.

Why not? I thought you did not have any issues accessing threads?

Oh, I have issues alright. But I guess it's the mobile phone vs laptop ish. Really can't be helped. Leo threads is merciless to mobile phone users.

That I agree. I just stopped using threads on phone. I would rather not thread or send occasional replies.

The leo.voter vote on this was supposed to be 25% not 5%, sorry about this, we will make it up in your next post.
