The more you tag, the more you put your discussion about.. For instance I wrote a discussion about the Berry tree and I tagged it making money online, berry tree etc..Now when I posted my discussion at the bottom other discussions popped up about the Berry tree..so your discussion gets seen by others when you tag.It is like advertising..I know a lot of you get pissed off with it but it is a very good idea really.. So don't forget to tag and add some funky ones on the enbd lol..

Hey there Yanji... Thakns for shareing that... Actually I always try to use a lot of tags whenever I start my discussions, but somehow I have seen that one or the other reason I haven't ever managed to get enough of responses. May be my topics weren't good enough, or may be the way, or the tags. I think I need to be a little bit more innovative while writing my headlines. An also sometimes I feel like its a work of good timing. Like starting your discusion during afternoon. I have heard that you get more responses then. I will try new and improve methods soon and then I will, I think, I will get more responses. Any ways Thanks For being My Friend Take Care MAy GOD Bless YOU YANJI

Tagging is a great way to get your discussion seen by more people. It is important to make your tags as relevant as possible to the discussion or in the case of blogs to the posting that is being made. Tagging is very important I do believe in this age of Web 2.0. I hope that you continue to have a great weekend. Thanks for starting this discussion.

I tag mine regularly. I didnt it before. Actually i see no difference between the number of responses now and before. if i dont tag, the system of MyLOt puts automatic taggs too.

I always tag everything I do- It helps people find my discussions when searching- It also helps eliminate the double postings of the same topics- I always use the search first before starting a new topic- tags are what we search by- I also heard that you get paid more if you tag your writings- So I tag new discussions, responses to others disucssions -- basically everytime it asks me to tag I tag!

You are right. Tag helps to search discussions with keywords. I generally tag any discussion I start or give any response. Thanks for the info.

That means you are an extra-ordinary man. Anyway thank you very much for giving me a chance to respond to a great person's discussion...... See you dear.......

I started tagging my discussions and comments from the start. When I did my first post, a message said I was almost done. I believed it and finished up like a good boy. I've never done the "skip-it" option. I just thought it was a good idea to help get more discussions covered and seen by more people. I've never been very rebellious. lol.

When I was a new user I really enjoyed that factor. I could get my thoughts on one subject, and then drop down to the bottom and answer a few more on the topic. It helped me organized and coherent. I always tag. Others have also indicated that you get higher pay per post if you consistently tag. It seems like a pain, but like you said, it gets you seen and noticed. When someone picks up on an older discussion it comes back to the top and gets more responses again.

Hello there. I think so too. I always tag all of my discussions that I start and even the ones that I respond to as well. I think there are many advantages to it also. You make a very good point here.
