I think good tags is about 30% of success!

And sorted:

Popular themes

You can see the most popular themes. Better you write articles using this themes.
Unite tags

For example, if you write introduce post you can use tags: introduceyourself, introduction, life, writing. If you introduction post about travel - add travel tag. And so on.
For example, if you post fun video you can use tags: video, funny, life.
Of course you can add more tags not so popular. But first use popular.
What others Steemers using

Look and investigate all post for what tags they use. Now it not possible to do it at steemit site. But you can see it here: http://steempress.io/. Just insert there interesting name and you can see what tags using author.

Also you should do it with no cheating. I mean add only appropriate tags.
An idea to do a new tag

If you want to do new tag just only about you - you can do it. Just write new tag in article (using some word and #) and it will be easier in future for people to see all you posts. Somebody just click on this tag and will see all about you. It can be really great opportunity to earn in future more and have new subscribers!

Like example somebody used to open photo challenge using tag #steemitphotochallenge

So more better you add tags - more #steempower you will receive!

Good Luck!

Update in 2 hours:

So when I added like example tag #steemitphotochallenge everybody can see this article at top of competition (and tag #steemitphotochallenge added forcibly in my lists of tags):

So now it looks like sort of cheating. But I ask owner of photo competition (link to my question) if it is ok for him (her?). And actually I think it is ok - because it is mutual advertisment for both. Especially this post now is popular. Anyway it quite delicate subject. But you can imagine what kind of border it open! It is possible do mutual advertisement of each other!!!
