RE: Why can’t I get upvotes on Hive?

in LeoFinance3 years ago

It is not an easy task to add value to hive, but it is achievable. If you put in the effort you will see upvotes coming in in the long run.
Some things you can do to get more people to see your content:

  • share on social media
  • promote with listnerds
  • commenting on other authors posts
  • making guides is a great way to add value
  • genuine unique content without copy pasted shitcontent helps a lot
  • use some of your income to promote your post on the frontends
  • engagement, engagement, engagement
Sort:  

There are lots of ways to add value.

Often the best is to engage in the comment section of other people's posts. That can really enhance what is being created.

Does it pay to upvote a post that's beyond the 7-day payout window? There won't be any LEO or HIVE involved then, but should we still upvote older posts anyway for the sake of making ourselves visible?

Great list of tips!

I've actually just started using the promote function on the LeoFinance front-end.

Burn LEO, burnnnnn!

Using Ecency, a 7-day promotion costs 500 Ecency Points, which is roughly worth 1 HIVE.

Using LEO to promote the same post at LeoFinance, it's still worth whatever amount of LEO equals 1 HIVE. There's no set fee schedule for promoting a LeoFinance post, but that's the math I use.

How have your ecency promotions treated you?

I used a boost the other day and was happy to get an upvote.

Ecency promotions have been more helpful than not. Many upvotes I get are due to them, which is why I use them. However, there is minimal overlap between Ecency users and LeoFinance users; I thought the overlap would be greater. Ecency promotions are a great marketing tool, but relying on it primarily is not enough.

Of course not.

Back in the day we used to be plagued with boosts and upvoting schemes and it made things very... spammy.

We had to learn to grow beyond the bots even though it was so much easier to work with them.

If promotion is used for your own content, then is boosting for someone else's content? I hadn't boosted, so I wasn't sure what that did.
