RE: The Updated Steemit Etiquette Guide - New Additions and Your Help Needed

in #steemit • 8 years ago

Awesome list! One suggestion is to clarify "Don't engage in tag spamming". A lot of people I have introduced to Steemit do it without knowing what 'tag spamming' is. I have to explain that you need to make sure your post is relevant to whatever tags you are using, for example only use "steemit" if your post is actually about something related to Steemit.

    Thanks.

    Yes it is clarified in the original post. For reasons of brevity I just put the main points from the original list. Once I have the new list finalised I can put them all together but it will be another massive post!

    Here is the excerpt:

    If your post does not directly relate to a particular tag you shouldn't be using it. A post about trumpets that just happens to have a photo of a trumpet in it should not be tagged with "photography", similarly a post discussing DASH is fine in "cryptocurrency" but should not be tagged with "ethereum". Tag spamming annoys people and rather than getting you extra upvotes is likely to get you a flag.
