Hello dear reader, if you are new to HIVE and its vibrant ecosystem you might find this post helpful. If you are already on hive for a while you still could learn something. I will show you how engaging with other authors and your own readers can make a big difference when it comes to grow your reach on the various frontends of our network.

People like interaction

Some do not, but most of the people love it when they get into a conversation with someone else. Communication is the factor that made us humans who we are today. We learn we provide knowledge we give happiness with our human interactions. Imagine where we would be if knowledge would not have been passed on over the evolution of mankind. We would start from scratch each time a new generation grows up.

On social media platforms the most common form of interaction is a like or an upvote. Upvoting on hive helps the distribution and decentralization of the token. It is not only means of monetary value but the fact that HIVE gets spread widely accross the userbase.

A second level of interaction is to comment on someones post or thoughts. One could even say that this type of interaction is much more important then upvotes. Of course on Hive and its multiple frontends you will have monetary value connected to your upvote. But nobody will follow your account or engage with your content just because you upvoted it with a few cents. If you leave a meaningful comment or thaught on someones post or comment they might be motivated to reply to you, and guess what: INTERACTION = CONNECTION

Connecting with others is the key to grow your network. How did you get your last job? How did you get to know you partner how do you make friends? Yes, by communicating.

If you don't write the job application your future employer will not know about you, if you do nmot have the courage to talk with someone you like it will be pretty hard to get to a relationship. If you are not commenting on others posts they will simply not know that you even exist on this chain.

If all this does not convince you why you should interact with other users on hive maybe this screenshot of my pending payouts on PEAKD convinces you. After all a lot of people are here to make crypto by blogging.

You can see that a lot of my comments make a few cents and some make even more, but those are the exception of course. I simply went with the following tactics:

  • I was opening all hive posts I found in my LISTNERDS inbox
  • I went through them and read the ones that woke my interest
  • I wrote one comment on each of them

This might be too time consuming for some but be assured you will start to see the effects of your efforts pretty fast.
You are not forced to comment on every single post published on the blockchain but the more you do the more rewards you will reap. I am not only talking about crypto rewards but the reward of making new connections maybe even friends. You will see those you engage with will be happy that you commented and maybe will be checking out your last post and follow your blog.

Just go for it and give it a try! Thank you for reading and if you found this post helpful feel free to leave a comment. I will try to reply to each of them. If you think this post could help others feel free to click on that mighty REBLOG button!

cheers! Solymi
