What are comments and why are they valuable?

What are they?

  • Comments are posts and you are the author.
  • And every post you publish is eligible for author rewards, which are 50% of the total post award.
  • But what many forget is that Comments are posts.

Comments add up

  • There’s a saying about small activities people do all the time for free.
  • For example: If I had a dime for every time I commented on somebodies Facebook post I would be rich.
  • If you step back a moment and think about all the Facebook and Instagram comments you have made over the years.
  • Then imagine if you could go back in time and make even five cents on each of those thousands of comments.
  • Little things done hundreds of times, really do add up.

What value do they have beyond money?

Comments are engagement

  • While comments don’t usually earn the large rewards that regular posts do, you get paid 50% of the comment reward and you get the benefits of engaging with a potential upvoter of your next post.
  • One of the most important things you can do to increase the number of people who read and/or upvote your posts is to create good content.
  • But an equally important activity is to read and comment on others content.
  • You are building not just a reputation as a content producer, but also relationships with the people who follow you and actually read or upvote your work.
  • Hive is a Social Media Platform, so be sociable!
  • You need to interact or engage with people in a social manner to be successful on a social platform.
  • It’s really that simple and it’s really that easy.
