Agree, probably the best support we can give eachother at this stage is upvotes, follows and support.I guess we need somewhere to alert eachother about our new posts. I know there are a few spin-off groups (the Isle of write etc) that work on Discord. I am on it but I am not tech savvy enough to set it up and it looks like the curators never get to sleep!

Great idea! I can try to set up a discord channel.

The first thing everyone can do in the case of "alerting each other" is turning notification for steemit on. So you get notified if someone comments on your stuff.

Although discord would be good it would be great if we could find a way to as a core thing communicate directly via steemit as it keeps our communications really open and it will attract new people to join as they will see the activity very openly :-) What you think of the tag idea? Or is there any other way to create groups on steemit?

I agree, supporting each other with follows and up votes is mega important, how about using the tag as a way that the group exists on here? Either the "getnoticed" tag or we could create a new one, as suggested above we could do a poll on it to choose a name. :-)

The only thing we have to consider if we use a unique tag for all posts is, that our post can't show up on other tags so it will be much harder to reach new users.

how do you mean?

Well, on Steemit you can get a lot of attention just because of the tag you use. Users often scroll threw the "new" or "hot" section of famous tags like: Steemit, introduceyourself, photography etc.

Using a unique tag on our post could cause problems because new user can't find our project because they don't see the post.

Ah yes I get what you mean, the thing is as you can choose different tags for your post, I think its 5 right? Then only one of them needs to be the unique one, it then means that it is a central place to go where are all of this group ones are posted, yet they can still appear in all the other 4 tags too, makes sense?
