Trap The Viewer Through Your Comments!

Humans…

Humans are social beings. We have lived in communities for thousands of years, helping each other the best we can. We went from small communities where we lived as homo sapiens helping each other, to big communities where we have millions of people that live in countries, and even those countries try to gather and create nations… like the United Nations for example!

So… throughout all of humanity's time we have gathered and increased the size of the community, we have shared information, we have helped each other, we have talked to one another! And steemit is just like that!

Steemit is a blogging platform, where you can make daily posts and earn it! But, is that it? NO!!! Steemit is also a social network platform! We need to create followers! Each time we do a post we get more followers, more and more! But posts aren’t the only thing that matters! COMMENTS!

Comments are just as important as posts, by commenting on other’s content, and providing good content yourself for their posts the social network grows bigger and better! But what makes a comment a good comment?

Commenting is an art, some people can do it without any effort, while other’s have a hard time making good comments! I’ll give you some tips on how to make good comments:

• Always read the post first- People… if you are going to comment on other people’s posts read the damn post first! It’s a must! Do you think people are dumb? Do you think people won’t realize that you didn’t read the post? They will… and in the end, you will probably get a flag! And even if the post is a dtube video, it’s not that hard to watch a 5 min video! If you are skilled enough at English you can put the video in 2x and listen to it in half the time!

• Quoting – Ok, so you read the post first and you are now ready to comment, one of the best things to make the poster know that you have read the post is quoting him! Quoting is simple you just use (>) and put the quote in front of it! After quoting just write some piece of information you want to add to the quote, maybe give some information about yourself, some input, or try to be funny! It’s not that hard!
  Not only does quoting make the poster realize you read the post but it also makes you more visible in the midst of hundreds of comments!

• Making a list – Making a list is also a great thing, people are more allured to read lists! As soon as their eyes see a list it’s like when a dog sees a toy! Making a list catches attention!!

• Being funny – Who doesn’t like comedy nowadays!? We live in a boring world full of pain and suffering! Comedic relief is something that everyone wants!!

• Good information – You can do all of the above tips, but if the information you are writing isn’t the best no one is going to read it! Always try to give out good information! Just saying “ Good read, thanks for sharing” isn’t good information! Giving out good content, maybe post a study you have seen about a certain issue or topic, anything that is not spam and adds something to the post can be called good information! Even the fact that you say you don’t agree with the poster's opinion is good information, as long as you provide the facts to back up your claim of course!

Remember, after 7 days your comment is going to be on the blockchain forever! So, make sure you are proud of your comment!
