Do you tag each post or response?

Sometimes I forget to tag a post. Lately I have remembered before I hit enter! Is it beneficial in any way to tag your posts? Do you tag every one or do you hit skip?

I used to do it regularly, religiously, even and I got tired of doing it. Now, I am no longer tired or find it tedious to do. I tag my discussions now. It might help, it might not. Cheers!!

Thanks for your input! I haven't been here too long.. but I am already like you.. sometimes I do sometimes I don't. I guess it is better to do it than to figure out later that it would have been a great idea!!

hello macdingolinger it is beneficial to tag your discussions around here at Mylot, you need to put at least five tag words, if not, somebody can come along and put adult content onto it for no apparant reason when that it shouldn't be. so yes, everybody here at Mylot should add tag words to each discussion that they respond to. take care and have a beautiful evening.

if you do not tag your discussions, that's where that they can wind up. anyways, that is what that i have learned here at Mylot about adding the tag words to a discussion.

Wow! I had no idea. I have never used 5 tags. Maybe one or even two. Rarely have I used 3! How can they change a tag on something I posted? That doesn't make sense!

I don't always tag the responses that I write. There are times, when I do, but I really don't do it all the time. I guess it just depends on the mood that I'm in, on the day, and such.

I gotcha on the mood thing!!! I do and don't jsut depending. Someone said that others can add detrimental tags if we don't. Have you ever heard of that?

hiii dear friend..I wont tag all the responses what i made..But i will tag the discussions what i create..I think that there is no need for tagging the responses..Taging the discussions are enough so that many of the mylotters will search for the good discussions and then they respond to them..So that it is enough to tag discussions..So that i will tag only the discussions..

I understand your reasoning! I am still not sure how beneficial it is, but I am beginning to try to tag everything. If it is possible I tag it with two or three topics; but somtimes it is just difficult to find more than one! I just don'tworry about it then!! Thanks for your response!

Yes, I do tag every posting and response. I understand this is for proper categorizing the postings and responses. It would help mylotters.

I know it says it is good... I just wondered if you know how it is helpful? I go back and forth sometimes I tag and sometimes i don't!

Yes, i tag them all and i tag them appropriately. I think giving tags will benefit us all because it will make discussions a lot more searcheable. I don't usually skip because it will just take only few seconds anyways. I type in meaningful tags or keywords that are related to the discussion. I don't know but i heard that you can earn from putting tags. I hope someone can confirm us about it.

I do not know if it effects our earnings or not. I have not heard so maybe someone can inform us.. that would be great! You are probably right that it is best to tag with appropriate tags If nothing else, it's probably just a good practice!

Yes I add Tag to Each and every Post I made, Actually it is another indirect way to earn from myLot, just let you know How???? I mylot Usually people are choosing Discussion and response before Posting response or comments, so they generally make a search about the same thing and think if you have Made a posting about something they are searching about then it is easily searched with the tags given and they respond your posting...Now it Might be clear to you How the Tags are helpful.... Keep Smiling and Happy myLotting

I never really tagged them until just the other day, as I never really understood what tagging was, until someone epalined it to me. I know, I should have, but I didn't. To answer your questin, I don't tag all of them. Some are difficult to put a tag to, so I don't tag those. I am not sure if tagging helsp all that much anyway, but I will do it when necessary. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

I understand you! Sometimes it is very difficult to decide a topic for the tag. Sometimes I can come up with one but no more! I am trying to remember to tag more frquently just in case it is beneficial to someone somehwere!
