Mylot ask us to tag the discussions, to be easy to find, when someone search something on this site.

Tags means when we responding to some discussion after posting that we should give a tag according to the matter either if your responding to the subject of life, you can give life. by giving tag is have so good feature of us. we can search all the related discussion according to the name of tag which you have given to new posting. and if you forgotten to tag the message while posting you will not get the point of that discussion. mean deny. hence don't forget to type the tag. happy posting and earn more and make good friends. i hope my response has given some tips on this subject.

As you can see, the other discussions under this one have much the same subjects, that is due to the tags. We are using them so that we can find different subjects easier.

I believe that tags are used to help user find discussions easier. Tags are necessary and I make sure I put tags for every response. It can be a pain sometimes, but if it helps me out and other people, then I will do it. When you make tags, they have to be relevant to the discussion. Make sure you put the highlights of your tags first. Hope this helps and good Luck!

It means that whenever there is a response to your topic, the discussions under topics with the same tag will have yours shown as the newest updated one. In otherwords the more tags, the more traffic.
