A lot of things can contribute to your growth on the hive platform. Being consistent in publishing content is one of those things you need to take serious. The quality of your work matters too. Low effort posts are not likely going to get massive support of any kind. However, of all the things that should matter to any hiver, engagement should be priority. The essence of this post is not to explain why engagement is a vital ingredient of all successful bloggers on hive, but to showcase a cool tool that makes engagement fun, cool and rewarding. That tool is leo threads. If you want to learn more about the role of engagement in your growth on hive, check the post below by khalellkazi:
I participated in the Crew3 quests that just ended and what I learnt from that marketing project are what I wish to share with us right away. Threads could be utilized to build quality engagement through the following ways:
Since we are discussing the role of threads for engagement, being a threads consumer means you are taking the first step towards a possibly the first great conversation, friendship and more. Making a thread from where engagement can kick-off is like saying hello and extending your hand for a warm handshake with a total stranger. When you make many threads, you are multiplying your chances of kicking off many conversations that might led to long-term relationships. So as a threads contributor with a goal of building quality engagement, you should **try to make many threads - I have a personal goal of at least 3-5 threads made in a day. If I am able to follow that up, then that could mean building a solid foundation on which solid engagement can thrive.
It is important to understand that engagement is much more than just a single comment or reply to a thread. It carries the sense of a conversation - the back and forth exchange of thoughts. So do not stifle conversation by making replies that leave no room for further interactions. Such such replies like the following will definitely kill the engagement:
1. Nice flower!
2. great!
3. cool pet
4. beautiful picture, etc
Such short threads usually limit the opportunity to continue the engagement or conversation. For example, instead of just saying nice flower, you could add what made you think that way, perhaps including a personal experience or observation about the object being discussed. In this way, your threads conversation should not end in the first few exchanges.
It is important to be conversational in your approach. So you can ask questions, give an example, relate and experience or share other thoughts that will keep the conversation going. The point we have made here is that as a threads consumer with building engagement in mind, you should reach out to threads made by others and reply thoughtfully. That could be the start of many exchanges along the line.
Having something to discuss is an important element of engagement. So you could talk about threads and why it is a great opportunity to grow, earn, and building one's connections. You can tell new users about the alpha UI, the leo team's project blank and the new quests to start soonest. There is a lot you can share with others as you promote threads.
A lot of new connections have been started simply by talking about threads. I made new friends when I reached out to their posts, engaged with it and tell them about threads. As a threads promoter, you too can kick off conversations and carry on productive engagement. Generally, if you enjoyed a healthy conversation with a total stranger, you are more likely to go to their blog and check out what they are doing. The stranger might do same and new friends have started this way.
Timing is very important in every conversation. In threads, it is even more crucial. As a threads contributor, reserve some time to wait and see if someone replies so that you can comment on their reply without much delay. In the same manner, a threads consumer should be ready to carry on conversation. So do not drop off a thread reply or comment when you are in a hurry, going to sleep or rushing off to some event that will keep you away for hours. By the time you return, the interest from the other party might not be there any longer.
Prompt replies elicit equally prompt comment on the replies. This way, a great conversation or engagement could be started and completed within the same short time. After reading this portion, make it a goal to always promptly reply comments on your threads or an authors comments on your own replies.
Threads is that essential tool to kick off your engagement journey and experience. The new Alpha UI is getting constant upgrades to ensure that threads becomes an even more powerful tool to drive growth and engagement. The thoughts I expressed above have helped me boost my engagement levels with threads. It surely can work same way for you!!!
