  1. People have a misconception that only votes matter here, but no, your comments also matter a lot. So try to connect with people as much as you can.

  2. It is not necessary to write every day but it is necessary to write well because here your relationships are formed by your writings, be it posts or comments.

  3. Look at the bigger picture and build your account with the intention of investing in the future.

Stay Blessed!๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

Community is a power! You will never succeed alone :) So I absolutely agree with you. Writing a post is important but checking out other's works and commenting it isn't less important too :)

Sorry for replying late.
I said writing daily is not necessary because it should be done as enjoyment and not as a burden. So if you really have something that you can share with everyone then write daily, but appreciating other authors daily is so important because only then will your world flourish in this hive universe.

Absolutely agree. Quantity doesn't mean quality... It is always better to create only 1 thing but a quality one, than plenty bad stuff

Excellent recommendations, these are the ones to keep in mind on the platform.
Merry Christmas!

Merry christmas to you too!๐Ÿ˜Š

You're totally right. Everything here on Hive is based on communities. The most important thing is to engage with others.

And that's the key! :)

Right brother ๐Ÿ‘

Here's my entry for the Ecency Day 7 Contest:

Hey there, future Ecency rockstars!

If you're just starting out on Ecency and Hive, congratulations on taking the first step into an amazing community! As someone who's been around the block a few times, I'd love to share my top 3 pieces of advice to help you navigate this incredible platform.

1. Engage, Engage, Engage!

Ecency and Hive are all about community, so don't be shy! Read posts, leave comments, and engage with others. This is the best way to build relationships, learn from others, and grow your own following. Remember, your voice matters, and your input can make a real difference in someone's day.

2. Be Authentic and Patient

Success on Ecency and Hive doesn't happen overnight. It takes time, effort, and perseverance. Be true to yourself, and don't try to be someone you're not. Share your passions, your interests, and your expertise. And most importantly, be patient! Rome wasn't built in a day, and your Ecency and Hive presence won't be either.

3. Learn and Experiment

Ecency and Hive are constantly evolving, with new features and updates being added all the time. Stay curious, and keep learning! Experiment with different content types, such as videos, podcasts, or live streams. Try out new communities and hashtags. And don't be afraid to ask for help โ€“ the Ecency and Hive community is always happy to support and guide you.

So, there you have it โ€“ my top 3 tips for thriving on Ecency and Hive. Remember to always be kind, respectful, and supportive of others, and you'll be well on your way to becoming a valued member of this amazing community!

Good luck, and happy creating!

This is very important information and very good advices. Hive and Ecency are always updating and evolving so we should do it too.

Ecency and Hive are developing very fast. You always can find something in the platform itself and amont the user's posts.

Thank you

Totally agree with you. Good comment dear friend ๐Ÿ˜Šโค๏ธ

Very well done, you have highlighted important things to be on the platform.
Merry Christmas!

Advice for those starting on hive and ecency.

  1. Pick a niche and stick with it... No matter how boring it may seem... Especially if you are on hive as a hobby or something you are doing the side.

If you have a job you do, having a focus in your content creation helps you with number 2.

  1. Be consistent no matter how boring it becomes...
    Sometimes you'll not get support, sometimes you'll get overwhelming support. Stick with what you are doing... Weather the storm.
  1. Interact with others... You get ideas for creating from watching and learning from other creators. It's a community... It's called a hive for a reason, a Hive is not made up of one individual, it is a collective.

Very well said, HIVE is like life, there will be very good days as well as days when there will not be many rewards, the important thing is to be consistent, this will bring happiness in the future.
Merry Christmas!

Yes... Consistency is key.

Merry Christmas to you too.

About number 1, I agree but also slightly disagree.

I mean, it would be great if you have a niche and you stick to it but it's also something limitating. It's better to have the freedom of writing about whatever we want at the moment without the fear of stepping outside that niche.

You have the freedom to write about anything...

But having a niche... Gives you focus especially if you already have a job. If you have time on your hands... Then fire away at any and everything

Here are my top three pieces of advice for those starting on Ecency and Hive:

  1. Take time to interact with other users by commenting on posts, joining discussions, and participating in community events. Building connections can enhance your experience and provide valuable insights.
  2. Focus on producing quality posts that reflect your interests and expertise. Share your thoughts, experiences, or tips related to topics youโ€™re passionate about. Engaging content will attract more readers and help you grow your following.
  3. Familiarize yourself with the features of Hive and Ecency. Understand how to use tags effectively, participate in challenges, and utilize the rewards system. This knowledge will help you navigate the platform more efficiently and maximize your potential.

WOW!, you touched on a critical topic: labels. Excellent recommendations.
Merry Christmas!

I'm still learning about tags usage. I mean, I normally use tags related to my post, but there are other tags that are commonly used but I don't know how they work.

So far so good, itz been funfare here @ecency advent holiday calender......and i'm loving it....

For Todays challenge my three main point to newbies on Hive and on @ecency is also my practical breakthrough since when i started some years ago

1 Make @ecency your favourite front-end, For all you Activities on #hive, from content creation, to engagements, to reblogs, to upvotes all these earn you @ecency point which you can use to boost your account, promote your content for more visibility and higher curation rewards.

2: Engagement is very Key, spend time digesting others content, leave a noteworthy comments and replies on their post and do same on yours, reblog follow and upvotes content and account that appeals to you and that resonate with your niche this way its easy to learn alongside and grow.

3: Be Authentic, Be Original, be creative. Be Real, be Open, be free and have fun in your content, hive smiles at the very ordinary simple ways and happenings of life, don't fake it, don't push it, go easy with Steeze๐Ÿ˜„....
And hey PLAGIARISM IS A BIG BIG OFFENSE hive frowns at it, it make him sad๐Ÿ˜’....so don't try it, source your images and text properly should you opt to highlight..

You mentioned important things, especially the issues of plagiarism and commitment, two issues that should not be ignored. Your suggestions are excellent.
Merry Christmas!

Thanks very much my friend....merry xmas to you too

You're right. The last advice is very important too. Everyone should avoid plagiarism and totally avoid use AI for content creation. AI images are ok, but not content.

Read the whitepaper, Communicate to other communities invest wisely. Download the Ecency app click free spin every 24 hours to get 1pt for free!

Short but forceful. Very well done.
Merry Christmas!

Straight to the point.

Hi again beautiful people. It's simple:

  • Be Patient
    Hive is a big community, they have to take some time to explore this enormous world, find the right topics for them, think about the appropriate content there and never give up.๐ŸŽ„
  • Be Kind
    Here in Hive7 people have a good atmosphere, supporting texts, motivational content and much more. People is always respectful and they will always be worried about you. Make friends and leave positive comments in your favorite posts. ๐ŸŽ„
  • Keep going
    Hive never ends. It is constantly growing and giving opportunities to we all. Keep exploring, keep posting, keep commenting, keep upvoting, and of course, keep dreaming. ๐ŸŽ„

(These advices of mine are based on my own experience, I'm still learning and I'm loving this๐Ÿฅฐโ˜ƒ๏ธ)

Everything you express is a great truth, there is no waste in your suggestions.
Merry Christmas!

Experience is the best teacher. Best wishes to you. Merry Christmas ๐ŸŽ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽŠ

Patience is very important here on Hive. Nobody gets big quickly, unless they come and invest their own money since the beginning.

That's true. Step by step ๐Ÿ˜Š

My advice for the newbies is very simple.

  1. Be frank and open minded
  2. Never stop learning
  3. Don't be jealous

Excellent recommendations.
Merry Christmas!

Straight to point. And the third is very important. We shouldn't be jealous about others users, we should see them as an inspiration to keep working and growing.

Hmm. I tried to say in simple words.
Jealousy leads to comparison here and it indirectly affect the hive activity.

  1. Starting is the most important step you have made, please be patient and take your time for understanding how everything works. Trust me, you will not regret it

  2. Before writing, take a few moments to understand the community, read what it is being discussed and say something nice. Do not hesitate to ask if you have queries, even more experienced users still learn new things

  3. Hive is all about people from all around the world, interacting and being rewarded with new friends as well as crypto. You canโ€™t have the one without the other. Be yourself, be honest, enjoy yourself and I can guarantee that you will only regret you did not join earlier

  4. Ask me anything ๐Ÿ™Œ

I'm already regretting I didn't join Hive earlier. I just knew about it last month.

Everything you express in your recommendations is very important, they are a great truth and I agree with you. Very well done.
Merry Christmas!

  1. Be consistent,
  2. Be approachable - always be willing to pour in answers to queries asked and known to you. This will be of great help to others.
  3. Encourage everyone to continue writing in this platform and to make use of discord channel.

That's right, everything you recommend is vital to be on the platform.
Merry Christmas!

Like your advice! Do you have anything in mind about how to encourage others?

By clearing their doubts then and their, though small. Also, when you have a feeling somebody is watching you or correcting you or commenting below, the flow in writing automatically continues, improving and encouraging us to be consistent in this platform. Amd above all, an unbelievable upvote.
This is my own personal experience @irisworld

It's a very good point!

Thanks ๐Ÿ™

I don't know how to use discord ๐Ÿ™ˆ I just have shared links to my posts on some channels but not much more.

Its easy friend.. just go to Google play store and download this app. After that in most community sites you can see join our Discord channel and you very well can join them. Aftetwhich you can interact with them, clear your doubts etc. All the best.

My advice for new people on Ecency or Hive in general.

  1. Find yourself a community that you fit into (doesn't have to be only 1, I'd say around 3-5 Communities is optimal to be committed to).

  2. Be consistent.
    It's ok to take breaks, but especially at the start, you would want to check in on the communities you are apart of every now and then.

  3. Follow people who share news.
    I think it's important to keep up with the news of the platform or within your community.

Very good recommendations, I support you in them.
Merry Christmas!

It is a very good idea, first of all I would like to leave in advance the ecency help community Ecency help where help and explanations are published for new users to make it easier to learn so many things that Hive and Ecency have for us.

Well, first of all, you need to know which communities you like, get to know the users in each one, get involved in creating quality content within them, and also place yourself in the official discord groups to continue promoting yourself within each community

Official Discord of ecencySecondly, after the first tip, you can choose to create content or rather place yourself in whether you want to be a curator. To do this, you can volunteer every month on ecency, where they give new and not-so-new users the opportunity to live a complete experience as a curator within the platform, thus learning a lot about this job and also getting to know the platform better: I leave you the link to the ecency discord where curators are recruited every month: https://discord.gg/KDsdBSVDG5 -

And thirdly, enjoy... there are so many things that Hive has for us, from my place I was able to take advantage and I continue to do so by continuing to share games of my favorite games, sometimes simply writing as a way of letting off steam, and the good thing is that there are so many communities and users here that there are no limits, also doing reviews of series and movies with our point of view, this is what Hive offers us. โค๏ธ

In my opinion first of all you must never give up!
The second one thing is post on regular basics
And also be with community and try to engage with others.
I think this simple steps can let help newbies and it will actual all time till we are here on hive!

Totally agree with you.
Merry Christmas!

My Advice For Newbies

  1. Be Active And Make Friends
    For new comers on hive blockchain and Ecency, being active is the way forward. Be active by creating blog posts. Make friends through engagement with others contents. Upvote others and comment on their posts.

  2. Regular Power Up
    Regularly powering up hive is one of the key to success in the Blockchain.

  3. Patience And Commitment
    Commitment and patience is needed here. Rewards might not come easily but with patience and commitment one can pull through.

Recommendations that are useful for newcomers and for those of us who have been here for a while, it is always important to keep them in mind. Congratulations and thanks for sharing.
Merry Christmas!

I'm already doing the first two, and for the third I'm working on my patience and my consistency.

Greetings to all the hiver, I was pleasantly surprised by this proposal of Christmas Advent Calendar, I have been in hive for a year and I consider that I still have a lot to learn, I will transmit the three advise that I find very important to keep in mind.

1 You must read and inform yourselves about the rules of the community you select before writing as well as about the functioning of the network, hive is in continuous growth and evolution.
Although there are rules that are general for the entire blockchain, each community has its own specifications, in terms of language, length of text, focus of the subject matter, etc.
You should also know how ecency works, what you can earn by publishing from ecency and how by interacting from ecency you can grow and strengthen your voting power.

2 Interacting with the community
Read and comment on other hiver's posts, as well as respond to the comments they make, it is important to be respectful, bullying, aggressive or obscene language is not tolerated.
As long as you make this a habit you will enjoy this interaction and make good friends.

3 Although monetizing is one of the attractions of the network, you should know that not always the contents are voted, the votes depend on many factors, including the quality of content, images, etc., so it is important that we enjoy the teachings and the growth that we can achieve as people.

3 Although monetize rs one of the attractions of the chain, you should know that not always the contents are voted, the votes depend on many factors, including the quality of content, images, etc., so it is important that we enjoy the teachings and growth that we as people can achieve.

I will go with 3 'Don't's

  1. Don't give up!
  2. Don't be afraid to ask questions or help
  3. Don't plagiarize

Good luck :)

!PIZZA
!PGM
!LOL
!LUV

You have expressed three very important recommendations, all in all, being in Ecency/Hive is like being with family.
Merry Christmas!

ย 10 days agoย (edited)ย 

The first one is the most important advice to me. Even when my posts don't get upvoted, I don't give up and work harder to make better posts next time.

ย 10 days agoย (edited)ย 

Never give up! Less upvotes don't mean that your post is bad. :)

ย 11 days agoย (edited)ย 

Well, I'm also a newbie around here and I still don't know everything about Ecency or Hive, but these are my advices.

  • Not only votes matters. Make sure to comment on other people's posts too so you can engage with them. It will help you to make others to notice you and you'll make new friends. Waves are also a good way to engage with people.

  • Make good quality posts. Don't post something just for posting it. Use the markdown codes to make it look nice and to make it easy to read.

  • Power Up your Hive tokens as much as possible. This will help you to have more HP and Resource Credits (RC) so you can interact more with Hive Blockchain.

  • Extra - Use the free spinner every day on Ecency so you can get free Ecency Points daily. When you get 1500 Ecency Points you can buy a 200 HP Delegation from Ecency for a week and it is very helpful for newcomers.

That is everything I can think of right now. I hope these advices to be helpful.

Thank you @ecency for this activity and thank you @melinda010100 for all your help.

Go beyond! Plus Ultra!

Very important suggestion for all the newcomers and those of us who are already in Ecency. Every suggestion planted by you is very good.
Merry Christmas!

Thank you very much ๐Ÿ˜Š Yours are very good advices too.

For those who start in ECENCY and HIVE, I recommend you to arrive with a willingness to live together as in a big family ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆ, do not arrive as if HIVE is a golden goose ๐Ÿฆข or a source of fortune ๐Ÿ’ฐ, because it is not, but it is a place to strive, to relate, to make community ๐Ÿค, to give a hand because you will receive many ๐Ÿ™Œ. Commenting publications with it you will be interacting and that will help you with networking, also exporting positive energy โœจ, avoiding comfort, motivating your fellow man, encouraging him because they will be with you in the same way ๐Ÿ’ช. From your possible earnings it is advisable to reinvest, make power-up, increase your HP, to strengthen your account, that action will give you very good rewards later on ๐Ÿ†. HIVE and, therefore, ECENCY is a universe to give and receive love โค๏ธ, to expose your gifts, show your creations and meet many kind people ๐Ÿ˜Š. For nothing in the world use AI, under any circumstances, do not plagiarize ๐Ÿšซ, do not repeat your posts, do not vote your own content and adjust your content to the type of community that are very varied ๐ŸŒ. Remember, you must always interact. Vote and comment on other publications ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ.

Love ECENCY /HIVE because the platform will love you ๐Ÿ’–.

Merry Christmas! ๐ŸŽ…๐ŸŽ„

Para aquellos que comiencen en ECENCY y en HIVE, les recomiendo llegar con disposiciรณn a convivir como en una gran familia, no llegar como si HIVE es una gallina de huevos de oro o una fuente de fortuna, porque no lo es, sino que es un lugar para esforzarse, para relacionarse, hacer comunidad, dar una mano porque recibirรกs muchas. Comentar publicaciones con ello estarรกs interactuando y eso te ayudarรก con el networking, tambiรฉn exportar energรญa positiva, evitar el confortamiento, motivar a tu prรณjimo, alentarlo porque de igual forma serรกn contigo. De tus posibles ganancias es recomendable reinvertir, realizar power-up, aumentar tu HP, para fortalecer tu cuenta, esa acciรณn te darรก muy buenas recompensas posteriormente. HIVE y, por lo tanto, ECENCY es un universo para dar y recibir amor, para exponer tus dones, mostrar tus creaciones y conocer muchas personas amables. Por nada del mundo utilices la IA, bajo ningรบn concepto, no cometas plagio, no repitas tus publicaciones, no votes tus propios contenidos y ajusta tu contenido al tipo de comunidad que son muy variadas. Recuerda, siempre debes interactuar. Vota y comenta otras publicaciones.
Ama a ECENCY /HIVE porque la plataforma te amara.
ยกFeliz Navidad!

Namaste ๐Ÿ™, Sharing my thoughts on it....

  1. Keep good content writing and write enough words in a blog and follow community guidelines.
  2. Always use proper tags and choose the right community for blogs.
  3. Keep safe owner and active keys and always use posting keys for blog posting. Never click on unknown links.

Very good advices. Thank you ๐Ÿ˜Š

My 3 pieces of advice would be the following:
#1: Make sure to enjoy your experience on Hive. This will help you increase the feeling good factor, and as a result, you will enjoy even more writing on Hive and engaging with other members of the community.
#2: Make an effort to improve your writing every time. This will help you feel better, and be more appreciated by other Hivers.
#3: Make sure to follow the guidelines and rules of each community, and the various Hive platforms and applications, in general.

It would seem that my answers are already said in the comments. I wish the best of luck to all the participants then. !BBH !LOLZ

1- Being consistent with that word will surely lead us to success.

2- Select the right community and focus on it.

3- Make good friends; That is, try to comment and vote for publications that we know can provide great feedback.

  1. Engage! Some people expect votes to come automatically but you have to make yourself visible first. Best to do this is by connecting with others..
  2. Don't leave the same meaningless comment (such as "great post") over and over again, especially not when you don't have a connection with someone yet. They will think "here's another one who tries to farm votes without reading". I will personally not even go back to such an account to check who this person is. Missed chance!
  3. Be consistent. Not everyone has time to create every day, I personally try to at least drop some votes and comments when I don't have time for content. This will make your account more visible to others.
  1. Stay focused and do not give up
  2. Never stop learning
  3. And the most important is that you enjoy what you do
