RE: Contentedly Engaged

in #hive3 years ago

The idea that longform content doesn't get attention doesn't hold up.

That actually depends. If it's longform, it has to completely capture the reader within the first paragraph or two. The exception being a person who already knows your work. They'll be more likely to hang in there a while.

As for sharing off blockchain, I recently shared a post with a person who isn't on Hive. That post belonged to a New Bee whom I just met. @emstone . The post about the life of her dog Max was so interesting, that I couldn't resist :) ... We need more content like that.

Sort:  

😀 Max will become Hive's legend if you keep sharing the article that much! Thank you! This cheered me up and made my day much better. 🤗

My pleasure, we really do need more great stories that inspire :) And like Taraz said, the writer has to care about the subject for that to happen. And you certainly love your subject in that one ❤️

Hey :)

Out of curiosity, are you using a discord bot for notifications? Just interested to see who is these days.

Will have to have a look at this legend too at some point!

No sir, I am not using Discord. Is it worth joining?

No need for the sir. :D

Just wondering how you are seeing the tags :)

I am being notified by Ecency whenever someone likes, makes a comment, or a tag. 😊

Oh yeah - I forgot they do it :)

The exception being a person who already knows your work.

This is why it is so important to actually build a following, rather than thinking that one post will be enough to gain consistent attention. People like people, not content :)

Would like it if more people shared Hive content offsite and I hope in the future, the evergreen content gets visited often, even if not upvoted.

What is evergreen content?

I disagree, people do like content too. But when it's both interesting and from someone they like, they downright love it :)

What is evergreen content

It is content that is not time sensitive and can be viewed "always" - for example, a lot of renovation DIYs I might watch are over a decade old and have tens of millions or more views.

But when it's both interesting and from someone they like, they downright love it :)

A can agree with this :)
