RE: Why and How on Hive-Newbies Initiative Task

My advice is that you can post an infinite amount per day. But at the same time, it comes down to what you are posting. It comes down to quality versus quantity.


There can be differences between how often you might post on Twitter versus how often and how much you might post on a blog or a forum or Facebook or Twitter. Well, and to make things more confusing, Hive Blog and Steemit and other cryptocurrency blockchain social media blog sites and platforms can be a variety of things all in one. It's a long story.


There can be side chains or apps of Hive Blog like for example Leo Finance, that is a name of a website that is built on Hive which is the blockchain foundation. And different apps have been made for Hive. There are apps that are like Twitter which means people post smaller posts and post them more often like you would on Twitter or Facebook.


People tend to post more often on Twitter than they do on Facebook or the difference is that Facebook has posts and comments but Twitter comments can be turned into posts. Twitter posts and comments are all called Tweets. So, you can post a tweet. You can comment on the tweet. And that tweet you made can then be shared too like as if it was a post. So, in some ways, people post more often on Facebook because there are more people or accounts on Facebook, like they say over 2 billion people, accounts, etc.


Hive Blog has different apps. So, there are video apps. And so, it can be a question of how often a person should post videos on YouTube and other websites. So, how often you upload a video might be different than how often and how much you might post, comment, tweet, etc.


Hive Blog, Steem, etc, has or had apps like Twitter meaning those types of apps might be designed to encourage people to post smaller posts more often.


But for the most part, you are right that it is generally better to post once a day. I actually force myself to post my Oatmeal Daily once a day. The reason I have to force myself is I can sometimes not post anything for many days or many weeks or maybe even many years.


My problem is not generally posting too much but in posting too little and too rarely. And yet, ironically, my advice is, in a twist or turn of events, is post as much as you want.


But then it becomes a question of what a person should want to post and it is a question of how long it takes to finish a post before it can be published. For example, I can be working on ten different posts at the same time. I might spend many days or many hours on each post. When I finish writing the posts, then I might publish them. And it might be that I may end up posting ten posts on the same day or even within the same hour. So, that is why I say it does NOT matter how often you post. What matters is that you post what you want to post. But if you post too often, you might make less money on each post and some people might not like you.


But for me, I do not care if people like me and I am not posting for the money. I like money and I try to buy Bitcoin. I try to save money. But I do not post only to make money. I write and I do things for many reasons. I want to share information with the world and I try to get the information out as much as I can. On Facebook, Gab, Truth Social, Frank Speech, Minds, etc, I may post hundreds of times each day. Well, on some days, maybe only a few times. It can be random. A lot of my posts can be small like one sentence. It might be me just sharing a photo. On social media, you might post more often. On a blog website, you might post less often because it takes more time to write a blog post. By the time you are done writing a blog post, the day is over. Then you can only post one time because you run out of time hahahaa.


Running Out of Time

I run out of time all the time. So, I can't post a lot. And a person might find you spammy if you post all the time or maybe not. But it does not matter what people think. People who sit around staring at the newsfeed all day are nobody. Real people don't have time or should not make the time to look at what everyone is posting all the time. Like for me, I have no idea how often people are posting because I rarely look. I only have time to look maybe once a week or once a month or at random times. I am busy all the time doing thousands of things at the same time. I will even copy and paste this comment right here to my Oatmeal Daily blog post and I will link it meaning when a person reads this on my daily blog post, then they can click on the link and go to your post, your article.


So, my advice is it depends on many things how often a person should post. And posting generally can take many hours to do meaning you probably will not have time to post a lot depending on whether or not it is a short Tweet Post or a long Blog Post or a photo or a video or a meme or a screenshot or a small comment or a combination of things.


And if something is important enough, it might be good to post it now or maybe later. I am saying might be. I am not saying it is always the best choice to always post right away. But it depends. And you might have something you should post right now. And then ten minutes later, there might be another thing you should post. But then again, maybe you should post it on a different website and then link to it in a daily blog post where you outline everything you did online. That is what I do. I am not posting all the time on Hive Blog. I generally post once a day on Hive. But I sometimes post many times a day on Blog. So, it depends. And it comes down to how good your posts might be and everything else. And if people don't like it, you may not get as many upvotes. You might get downvotes.


The Beauty of Code

You have good advice, especially with the how to link, the [ text for the link ] ( the blue hyper link) is good for people to know and another good code is this code puts text up high. The code for that is: <sup>this code puts text up high.</sup>


And the code to show the code is `


And then you close it with the ` character.


Open And Close

Code is simple when you remember that each element of code should generally be opened and then closed. For example, center text is < center > with no space between the side-way triangles and center. Then code is like that is generally closed with a forward slash in the code at the end, as in < / center >.


Step one: open a code with < code>.


Step two: close the code with < / code>.
