I notice recently my post on hive has been under performing in terms of generating engagement, interactions or getting upvotes, i had to pause and check back what could be the problem, During the month of December 2024 i was very active and my post were performing well, i liked the flow and continued that way till the later end of January 2025, but by the end of january i was caught up in activities so i barely could pay attention to hive talkless of creating content, i realise by the time i was back by second week of February, i could barely do anything, altho i tried it was to no avail.
I then asked myself what really happened what have i been doing differently than now, i realise that during the whole of December i was more often into writing contest, community prompts response #inleo prompts and also engagements such as digesting and leaving good comments on people's blogs, the response was good and inspired me to do more, but recently i felt lost and so hard to script words together, even if i do, i got nothing which was more difficult than ever.
There is usually a direct response between your emotions, your state of mind and your over all performance, so this affected how i think, act and gaining stability, i was literally struggling to create meaningful content but then i was more confused at how things have changed over time, it now dawn on me that hive is more than just an ecosystem or a space on web3 were people just come to express their creativity in whatever ways possible which is of course the fore facts but beyond that hive thrive on the wheel of engagements, creating comnections, making friends this connections created really do have positive impact on every other thing we do on hive.
Basically which is why some communities and frontends like Leofinance, ecency, peakD have also create short form content creation platform to make it easy with generating engagements, fostering interactions, creating connections, for intance Emeka creates a #thread on inleo, these now prompts others to react to it, by engaging with these thread generating up to 10 or 15 engagements emeka keep on with replies and feedback, and he does this everyday, Emeka has make friends on hive, also gotten upvoted, earning him, Hp, $HBD and $LEO at the end of the day, not only that Emeka will likely got noticed by one or more of his friends who might likely support him more.
Someone asked me sometime ago, how is it that some would publish a post and get so high meanwhile, someone else can even publish a highly informative and educative post and never get noticed at all, now here's a fact about hive and getting good upvotes as far as i know, being around for a couple of years....
YOUR HP MATTERS
The higher your stake, the higher your chances of getting upvoted, overtime as you continue creating content your rewards are split in two HP and HBD your HP affects your HBD in some way, since its acts like #proofofstake it cause you to get higher rewards on your post payout, as your presence is noticed more and more big account will likely notice you and make you their friend.
DELEGATIONS || CURATION TRAILS
Actually hive is a fun place to be, its a better investment destination when compared to normal commercial banks, i'd rather stake my fiat on hive burn it up for HP or lock it in savings to further generate inflows for me.
Most communities on hive have their own L2 token which is gotten through community engagements, comments or blog post, this token can also be gotten through leodex or swap, the more of these token you have in your wallet, the more chances you get of being recognise whenever you make contributions.
Delegating to these communities or joining curation trails also enhances your chances of getting good rewards....
DISCOVER COMMUNITY NICHE || CONTEST
One of the fastest way to scale up on hive us to discover your niche, more like what you are good at, and niche down on it, by creating engaging content continually, also each week communities most importantly thrive on the engagement of weekly contest, writing prompts, these prompts are to aid you with writing ideas and topics to boost your creative writings....
