Developers View On Steemit Tagging & Improvement

Tagging on social networks is extremely popular, and it's the best way to make your content more visible to the right people. Each platform has its own unique tagging style, yet they all follow the same general idea.

Tagging usually applies to people and blogging. For example, most social networks need you to type the @ symbol first to tag another user.

Like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, when you tag someone, you create a link to their profile. The post you tag the person in may also be added to that person’s timeline. For example, when you post an update and add a friend's name, they will send a notification to the person that He or She has been tagged.

Steemit tagging is essentially assigning a keyword or phrase that describes the theme of a group of articles, photos, videos, or other types of media files as a way to organize them and access them easily unlike Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.

Whenever we are mentioned in a post that fellow steemian shared, it may be as a form of complement or otherwise, it will be great if we can be receiving a notification so that we can see the post. I have read a lot of post in which people were mentioned positively and negatively, had this platform as notification feature, posts would have attracted either more upvoting or flagging.
