This isn't rocket science 🚀👨‍🔬🧪

If you are posting content on Hive, then you most likely are anticipating receiving some rewards for your efforts. That's something that could totally happen, but it is not guaranteed. If the right people do not see your work, you are less likely to be the recipient of many rewards. This means that making sure you are discovered is nearly as important as the content itself.

There are many different communities that have dedicated curators who will always be doing their best to make sure that the best content is rewarded. It is difficult to determine what is the best. It is even more tough to sift through the vast numbers of posts without sometimes missing a few gems.

You can check http://hivebuzz.me/ranking and sort by the HP Effective column to see which accounts have the highest Hive Power. I'll provide you with the Top 25 curation accounts on Hive, but there are plenty more people with high amounts of HP in their accounts.

The first thing you may think to do is comment on one of these accounts' most recent posts and beg for votes. In my opinion, that is not a good idea. Taking the time to interact with these people's content in a more traditional way is a solid option, but not all of these accounts make posts of their own. In fact, the majority of them exist solely to curate.

There are instances where you could get muted by one of these accounts and they will never see your work again. This happened to me once years ago when @ranchorelaxo randomly muted me at some point. I have no idea why and I'm not worried about finding out the reason since that is one account of hundreds that can divvy out some nice rewards. There is no reason to pause to dwell on a specific curator when another one could discover you that same day.

If not begging, then how will you get the attention of these accounts? There is no single answer to that question, but there are many different things that you can do in unison that may increase the odds of it happening to you. Each account goes about its curation in a different way.

Some incubate specific communities, others select their favorite and simply stick with them only, or a few may just reward their close friends. One of the most recent options https://veews.io/ is a great way to get discovered as well, but it is hard to control being shown on there. If you tag your content properly that is a good way to make sure you are included in the group of posts that are presented, but there still is no guarantee.

I will provide you with a few guidelines to follow which will help to increase your ability to get noticed and then maybe receive some better rewards for your work.

There are several strategies you can use to stand out and get noticed when there are a lot of people trying to do the same thing as you. Here are a few ideas:

1. Focus on developing a unique personal brand and style.

This could be through the way you present yourself online, the content you create, or the way you approach your work. If you are looking for somebody to design an awesome logo for you, I highly recommend @baptisttadg, that is who created mine.

2. Build a strong network of connections and relationships.

This could include connecting with other professionals in your field, collaborating with other creators, or getting involved in relevant online communities and groups. Just because you create content does not mean you should forget to curate content as well. The more people that you take the time to show some love to, the more chances you have of somebody noticing your account for the first time. Who knows, maybe one of your new friends will introduce you to a big curator.

3. Create high-quality, valuable content.

This could be through blogging, creating videos, or sharing any of your other work. By consistently producing content that resonates with your target audience, you can build a loyal following and increase your visibility. You are far less likely to be rewarded if what you create is nothing more than junk. Put some effort in and please don't steal the work of others. Plagiarism is a quick way to get blacklisted.

4. Leverage SEO (search engine optimization) to make it easier for people to find your content online.

This could include optimizing your website or social media profiles for relevant keywords, using tags and hashtags, and building backlinks to your content. This is very important to show up on google search results. It can also come in handy here on Hive since some users explore tags for specific topics that they enjoy. You can learn more about how to optimize your SEO by searching for articles about it over on https://leofinance.io/.

5. Consider partnering with other companies or organizations to promote your work.

This could involve sponsored content, joint promotions, or other types of collaborations. There are frequent contests that you can enter here on Hive, so be sure to stay active in your favorite communities so that you do not miss out on any opportunities. Discord groups can also be a good place to stay up to date on what all you can get involved with.

Don't be afraid to ask questions 🗣️

By implementing these strategies and continually working to improve and grow, you can increase your chances of getting noticed in a crowded field. Don't give up after the first week, keep at it, and eventually, you will find your efforts will pay off.

If you see someone else having success, ask them how they managed to get where they are. Most of the time people will be proud of what they have achieved and more than happy to try their best to assist you to do something similar.

I hope that the information that I've provided you today will assist you on your journey. If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask them in the comments below. There is no question that isn't worth asking. If you are curious, find out the answer.
