If we are not mistaken, this is the third time (within three days) that you have posted about that same dish with the exact same photo. Watch out!

Sort:  

I didn’t realize sharing the same pictures on different communities could affect anything. Thanks for the heads up! I appreciate it.

Well, the thing is, when someone arrives at your Hive blog and scrolls down through it a bit, the first impression they are going to get might be something like, "This person doesn't know what to post about, and it's just repeating itself."
In other words, try to put yourself in your visitors' shoes. Would you be tempted to follow and reward a blogger that repeats itself day after day?! Will you find it interesting and/or intriguing?! - Probably not!

But more important, is the following. Publishing more or less the same content (almost the same three sentences with the same photo) may be considered self-plagiarism. Any sort of plagiarism on Hive is a big "NO! NO!"
Furthermore, this may also be considered a SPAM attempt in the sense that the user is trying to take out of the reward pool as much as possible by posting more or less copied/pasted the same content.
On top of that, here on Hive, there are users and accounts that are watching for such behavior occurrences, and when they come across such things, the user gets blacklisted and downvoted.
That's the main reason we told you to watch out. By that, we wanted to encourage you to stop doing it and avoid such an ugly scenario from happening to you.

The most common mistake newcomers make is behaving on Hive like they do on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. But the rules are entirely different here.
First and foremost, one should know that by publishing on Hive, we are all earning something. Therefore, publishing on Hive is considered as commercial purpose publishing. (It doesn't matter how big or small that earning is and in which form - fiat money, cryptocurrencies, or even material goods - that earning aspect, according to the law, more or less the same all over the world, automatically puts that publisher in the category of publishing for the commercial purposes.)
In that sense, all the online publishing rules and laws apply, like citing and linking the source when citing an allowed portion of somebody else's work (no matter if visual, audial, or textual), obtaining allowances and/or licenses, etc.
Therefore (on Hive) it's extremely important to publish only your own content and avoid plagiarism by all means.

For all these reasons, we will leave you here with a couple of pieces of advice that might help you on your Hive journey: first, to avoid unneeded issues, and second, to gain more viewers and visitors and, accordingly, potentially more upvotes, too.

  • Try to make a bit longer posts (not just a couple of sentences).
  • If you fall into a writer's block (and we all do) you may find some good prompts (ideas) on @daily.prompt an initiative started by @mariannewest. Every day they publish a new writing prompt, but you can use any old one also. Take a look! You'll see it's fun!
  • In case you would like to decorate your articles with different photos, and maybe in your gallery among your own photos you will not have the most suitable to use, we are leaving you here a couple of links to websites where you can find photos, illustration, vectors and more, all licensed as free to use even for commercial purposes (that we explained above publishing on Hive is).
  • Pixabay, Pexels, and Unsplash
    Just remember to cite and link the source of those images, so the original author gets credited at least that way.

Hope this would be of some help to you!?!

He would have won, if it weren't for all those medaling kids!
