It's the weekend & I am still occupied with my personal commitments. Usually get a little time off in between when my son sleeps so I jump back to Hive & Leo Finance to see @whatsup with everyone :'D It has become an important part of my life & I can't help but spend more time on it. I value my time a lot, it's a scarce resource hence very important to utilize every second. ON Hive, you can monetize your time, skills & knowledge. Social media is so fun but I never thought finance & crypto would be so fun when you club them together. #SocialFi is the real deal folks. 🦁
Today seems like a good day to share some Hive Success growth hacks. It's tough if you do not have a decent amount of stake. You will take time to make a name for yourself because the no. of creators is growing each year and the level is going up too. It's a competitive world out there. At the same time, there are enough opportunities for everyone. There are so many great communities on Hive where you can spend your valuable time and try to succeed. Hopefully, the tips I am going to share today would help you boost your earnings and influence quickly on Hive. These are general tips that can be applicable to any other social media platform as well.
Write Comments That Matter
In a room full of people, you behave like a 5-year-old kid asking stupid questions from everyone. Ask relevant questions on others' posts. It will help you get your answers quickly and directly from the experts. When I started my journey, I used to comment a lot. Even to this day I consistently engage with other community members who post frequently and publish content that I find interesting. I have built some good relationships over time and had some amazing conversations with folks on Leo Finance & Hive. It made me learn a lot of things from their experiences. I also interact with other comments on a post and try to help other people whenever I can. In the process, I have gained upvotes and followers as added bonus. Engagement is the most significant growth hack on Hive. There's no success without it. Even the most powerful witnesses are the ones who publish frequently and interact with the other community members. Comment section is your communication tool on Hive that pays. ;) Right now there's an engagement contest going on Leo Finance - Comment via LeoFinance.io, Beat Khal (@khaleelkazi) in the Leo Finance Engagment League by @abh12345 and earn 100 $LEO. Do participate! 🚀
Publish Posts That Matter
The best performing posts on my profile are the ones which are helping my readers with a piece of information they didn't know about earlier. Such posts attract engagement, upvotes and lots of reblogs. That is why I write lots of guides and tutorials whenever I can. Since they are mostly evergreen, it's great for SEO as well. For example, when CUB Finance was launched last year, I wrote a tutorial on how to see track your CUB investments on one single page. It was one of my first successful posts, got so many upvotes on HIVE & LEO and 31 comments in total.
Contests
Trust me, these work the best. Newbies on Hive are looking to take part in contests and win some rewards. Just host one or take part in a few of them. Even if you don't win, there is a good chance that some people would notice your work. You can learn from others and see where you are lacking and why their content is better than yours. If you win, you can go home with some cool rewards and whales might notice! If you host a contest, then you can benefit the community by rewarding some cool people for their hard work. You can also gain some followers in the process and there is a good chance some cool whales would support you with sponsorships if your contest is adding enough value. For reference, you can checkout the PolyCUB SEO contest I launched a few days ago.
Follow #HIVE Community On Twitter
Hive community is quite active on Twitter. If you are not there, you are missing on a lot of great stuff. I share all of my blogs on my Twitter Profile I made specifically for the Crypto Stuff. A lot of people will start supporting you on Hive once they find your blogs on Twitter and find them interesting enough. You can even get outside views to Hive boosting your page ranking on Google. I often get retweeted and like by the official accounts of the crypto projects I write about. That's invaluable to me. And who knows, someone might join Hive because of your tweets. If this is not enough, you can earn $POSH tokens for doing the same. Earning $POSH will also make you eligible for @poshtoken upvotes which is crazy!
Discord Servers
All Hive communities and projects (most of them) have their discord servers to communicate directly with the community. They also have a channel where you can share your posts related to the niche of a particular community. It generally named as #Post-Promotion. If you follow the rules and basic tag requirements, there is a good chance to get picked by their curators. Also, all these servers will have a "General" channel to chat with other community members. Again, you can also help others and add value in different ways to make your presence felt. Don't be spammy though! 😂

I think it's awesome that you share things like this. It's important and proves that anyone can be successful. You don't have to be a heavily-invested users or have a 5 year old account. You can work your way up!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
100%. Just keep adding value man and help as many people as you can. :)) That's the hack!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Consistency is key. Being patience is also important, especially in terms of long haul results. Such as with rankings for instance. You've been proving for quite some time that you have what it takes. Keep it up! :)

One of the culture differences between Hive and Leo is the desire to onboard new people and see them be successful!
We are having fun, we are supporting each other and we are looking to educate and bring success to the newer accounts as well.
The more people who feel successful here the better for all of us! Glad to have you, one of my favorite young accounts!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I totally agree with you. 100%. I think that is the reason for people to feel like home, and to feel that they are actually a part of something.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Brooo. This is exactly what I feel. It's my second home. 💖
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I feel the same. Leo Finance is the biggest reason why I came back to Hive. It's safe to say that it changed my life. I used to be on Steemit but left it in between. Everyone here is so supportive and always willing to help each other. This makes me feel at home. :))
Hands down~ my favorite Hiver. I really love your tweets. They are so funny and relatable. 😂It means a lot to me @whatsup. 💖 A huge motivation booster! You are ~
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The beautiful thing about the Hive vs. Steem is Hive stepped up and outperformed Steem. I wasn't a fan of the whales insisting everyone left Steem, and I aslo took the 12 weeks of my powerdown to think about things, but 2 years later Hive has earned it's lead on Steem and then some!
Glad we are here.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I totally missed the Hive vs Steem takeover. Can't imagine how much you guys went through. You didn't want to leave STEEM for Hive? or did you want to stay on both the platforms? Can't be an easy decision when you are invested so much and don't know what the future holds.
All's well that ends well. We've Only Just Begun!

Ok. So we moved on. 🦁

Two tips I like best and that would definitely help is the contests and comments (that matters) because it's like creating awareness for yourself and being relevant.
Making posts alone without interacting won't get you anywhere, it's just you being limited.
Thanks for the tip!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You got it mate. If you want others to support you, you have to support them first. It's simple! :')
All the best. 🔥
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thank you for these hacks and they are absolutely helpful especially the engaging part. I learned recently that we don't really need to sound all too smart when giving comments, we just have to give thoughtful ones relating to what we read and ask related questions too and it goes from there.
Quality posts and comments catch attention so that's what I am working on to improve.
And I also agree in taking part in contests. I think it is one where I learned to be more comfortable engaging with others.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It was actually lengthy but and i decided to read through the lines because you made so much sense. I'm a newbie tho but posts like it can make me sure succeed on hive. Although i have started practicing some things you mentioned
Thank you very much for sharing
You get the point mate and that should be enough. Just keep the headings in your mind and start implementing as much as you can. 🔥
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea, thank you dear friend
Always great to see you here.
We are all doing our best to push Leofinance forward.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thanks Task. 🔥 I think the Kraken has been released. Suddenly the engagement level on Leo Finance is so damn high!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah it seems that when people have a financial incentive, they will get involved.
Amazing how that happens.

I think engagement is the one I like the most but I don't really bother with Twitter or post promotion. However, I guess I have been seeing the benefits from Listnerds so I may have to approach that differently.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Engagement is highly underrated and under appreciated.
Listenerds is as amazing as Twitter. Infact it is even better because the conversion rates are so high. On Twitter, the Tweet's with links do not necessarily perform great all the time.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Every thing you said is through and I think I am seriously lacking in the area of contest and I think I really need to improve on that
Bro, do take part in as many as you can. Not many people have the ability or motivation to do that. Honestly, it's one of the easiest ways to get attention and make money on Hive. 🚀
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah I will bro thanks alot.i really appreciate
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Cheers mate. Lots of love. 🔥
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Great tips for people to monetize their efforts in crypto ecosystem while engaging and having lots of fun. I'm pretty sure many people will utilize these tips to level up their earnings in Hive ecosystem ✌
Thank you for your efforts ✨
Thanks a ton, mate. Glad you liked them! As a newbie, these will help anyone to get the most out of their time on Hive.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
These are all great tips. I especially like that you mentioned engagement first because it's the most important. You have to get to know people and brand yourself. It's true, it's easier with a stake but you can build a little stake through engagement.
One thing I like to do as well is give out 100% votes to at least one new author a day. My stake is only 5000 so It may be different for larger stake accounts but I feel like it is important for me to do so.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thank you so much mate. 🔥 Engagement is the most important thing on any social media platform. On Hive it is monetized so why not. Easiest way to make money & gain followers in the process.
That's a great thing you are doing. I think we all should follow such a habit and support more talented peeps.

Yeah thank you for sharing this @finguru,you have spoken well.i am having this problem linking my Twitter account to my hive account,each time I tried it tells me transaction not successful.i have tried this severally but it keeps occuring.i don't know what to do.is there any advice or help you can give on this.
You are most welcome bro. Are you trying to link your accounts on https://hiveposh.com/ ??
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thank you so much
Thank you so much @finguru , I must admit I didn't know Hive community was on twitter, I'll follow now and also share my posts there
That's awesome mate. Go get some whale attention. xD
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The engagement part technically open up my mindset.it was so true.will do exactly that.by the way i wonder is there any chance of me posting something,but there's not even a person read it,ever.it just gonna scroll passed.i really don't have an idea whether it just my post that suck,or the post doesn't even found anyone because of none are following me.thanks.
Sorry in advance if this is one of the stupid question that shouldn't be asked.but yeah, I'm clueless person.
Not at all a stupid question mate. If no one is following you, there's a good chance that your post will be ignored at first, unless someone picks it from the Latest section as soon as they see it. There are a couple of ways you can promote your post as I mentioned in this blog:
The best thing you can do part from above is to comment as much as you can and network with people. Over time they might start following you for your great comments and maybe support your content too. Most people will simply follow you if you follow them and comment on their posts regularly. But don't expect this from everyone and you are not entitled to any upvotes.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This explains a lot more than the question,you are a great person.thank you.
You are most welcome mate. Happy to help!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Add value and get value back. The system is flawless.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's the hack. There's nothing like Hive. :')

Good post. We newbies need all the info we can get. There's a lot to learn when you're just getting started.
100%. I can totally relate to this sentiment because I had a hard time figuring out everything on my own!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
These are all great tips. Thanks for sharing. As for me, engaging has helps me more probably due to my lack of time in creating contents. Participating in Contest is a good way to earn more and grow over here
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thanks mate. Engagement is the holy grail of success on Hive. Just keep commenting and try to make a post once in a while. Whenever I feel like shit for not posting, I make like 10-20 comments and suddenly I feel great. 😁
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah. Will continue to do so. Gunning for a much improved numbers this week. I believe you know why :-)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Hahaha. Go for it mate. It's all yours. 🔥
