Here is the list of tags that you can use to generate more views and upvote to your post with possible reason
1.) Cryptocurrency/Bitcoin
As steemit is blockchain based social networking site all of the members (Probably) have knowledge about cryptocurrency.So, there is a high chance that people are trying to learn more about it. I posted some post with main tag cryptocurrency and it got a lot more views than other tags. You can even use bitcoin and altcoin as your tag.
2.) Money
People blogging here are somewhat like they are here for money, not all but most of them, frankly speaking. So, money can be a great tag for your article.
3.) Steemit
The community of steemit is the best community I have ever seen. As many old steemians are helping many new steemians there is a high chance that you get noticed when you post on steemit or steemit help.
4.) Life , Poetry, Science, funny and Photography
They are the common tags many people use. Life is one of the best tag as you get more audience posting about life. Poetry, Science and Photography are self explainable.
5.) Introduceyourself (Introduce Yourself)
There are many steemians new and old who want to both increase their follower and to find someone to follow. Post about yourself and what you are interested in and use tag introduceyourself to get more views. Introduceyourself also let you make your own community of same interest.
But remember never use tags that are not related to your post. This will not help you at all. So, always make a quality content and use appropriate tags. If you want to learn how to write post that grabs your audience at once then follow me. I am also new to steemit but have 49 reputation with only 55 followers. This is because of all the quality content that I made. (At least steemit thinks it was of quality). Stay in touch with me to learn more and how to grow fast.
