tags

Hello agwbabycakes.... Tagging does affect your rating, but not directly....tagging can affect your earnings on discussions. The tag words help people find your discussions, more tag words, equals more people, which can equal more responces....more responces equals more earnings. More traffic to your discussions can mean more people rating your discussions positive.......which can affect your rating. Tom

Actually, I have tried every combination of things you can do, and I have found that the tags make very little difference. The same with rating responses.. Not much happens there either. Also, it does not seem to make much difference if one person or 100 people read your discussion.. Pictures are hardly worth the effort. You get 1 cent for every two pictures and there is a max of about 15 anyway. What does make you more money is responding to discussions. I believe 90-95% of your money comes from here. Just make sure they are well thought out and 4 or 5 lines at least.

Yes, I try to use tags whenever possible. I think it adds to your earnings, though I don't know how much. I think, to get the maximum amount of earnings on this site you have to be fully involved and rate and tag as much as you can. Tags have also helped me find similar discussions. There have been times where I wanted to do some postings and only found a few subjects I wanted to talk about. People tagging the discussions have helped me find more discussions to answer.

The tags help to fill the space so rogue people don't put in their off the wall tags. The tags help the site to organize them and for people to find the discussions. If they find your discussions I don't think it helps you however if you use the same technique then yes it will help you. Good luck with filling those slots with tags.
