The power of consistency
To promote Leo Threads within our Liotes community, the Leo team delegated quite a significant amount of LEO tokens to our curation account.
For us it was a win-win. On one hand we could reward our community members for using threads and on the other side it gave a lot of visibility to the Liotes project within threads. This deal that was brokered by @idiosyncratic1 and @anomadsoul at the end of February was a big success...
Since February the Liotes tag was almost always within the top trending tags used on threads
Sometimes we were a bit lower in the ranking of the trending tags but lately we are back in the top 8 tags on threads. For a small community like Liotes, this is quite impressive. We were however not the only community that received such a delegation.
What did we do differently from the other communities?
When people use the #liotes tag we upvote their thread. Once a day, @ph1102 and myself go through all the threads with the #liotes tag and we upvote them. We don't give a systematic upvote but try to even the votes out among the people who used the tag and also try to give votes to things that we like. If somebody makes 25 threads, we will probably not give more than 3 upvotes to the same person.
I believe, the single thing that we did differently from other communities is that we have been doing this task constantly, almost every day since the beginning of March.
Why everybody wins?
First of all, there aren't that many curators that upvote threads. By being consistent, we give some value to the platform with our curation. This is therefore positive for the platform because it needs life and the life is incentivised by such upvotes.
Of course the person who writes the thread is happy because he/she gets an upvote for their content. It's not a big value upvote but still, it's not zero and it will encourage to produce more threads.
For us, it is of course work but it doesn't take more than 5-10 minutes per day. Since we are two to share the workload, it's also easier. Thanks to the fact that Liotes has been visible so well over the last 6 months in the trending tags, we have been able to promote our project. We got new owners of LENM and new people taking part in our weekly missions. Also our image has grown and we got some invitations for podcasts and shows where we could present Liotes.
We see today a lot of people using the Liotes tag in their threads without knowing anything about our project. After a while however, they start to be curious and they look what it is all about. For us this is really great because it allows us to get new people into our community in an organic way. They look us up and they are curious about the project.
I would say that the reason for this success comes down to consistency. The fact that we give these upvotes every single day, was the only thing that we did differently from most of the other projects. This consistency was noticed, people started to use the tag and they realized that they got some upvotes... Incentives paired with consistency as a recipe that works pretty well in the blockchain world...

This is what we aimed to get with @anomadsoul via LEO partnership.
I'm glad to see that people explore Liotes and Liotes citizens are using LeoThreads actively.
I will get back to support #liotes threads as before.
Dear Achim and Zoltan, many thanks for your collaboration to add value Hive ecosystem 🙏🏼
It's really nice to see how this relationship provided advantages to all parties involved. Thanks for making it all possible :-)
Thank you for making it possible! Appreciate it!
When both parties do their job, every collaboration works as a charm... Happy to see that this one worked well for both... As we didn't stop doing the curation part, people recognized that and continued to use our #liotes tag... Like you said, another proof that consistency works!
It seems nothing to spend 5 minutes every day to give some upvotes but not many can have the consistency over a long period of time... It works in every field of the blockchain :-)
With what type of content can the #liotes tag be used in threads? Can you post anything?
There are no limits in terms of content. Of course we prefer threads that are longer than two words :-)
🤣🤣 Two good words "Te quiero" "I love you" are better than many books.
🤣
Great news. Creating win/win scenarios is a solid path forward. Glad to see the growth and expansion.🤩
More! More!🙃
Such scenarios are really helpful and there are quite a lot of situations in the hive ecosystem where such scenarios are possible :-)

You can use it only in Leo threads otherwise it won't help you. There is no content requirement for it.
Appreciate you answering me.
It wouldn't help me in the way of earning from it? I don't use Leo thread anyways.

I'm glad to hear that the Liotes tag has been consistently trending on Leo Threads. This is a great way to get your project in front of new people, and it's clear that your efforts are paying off, it's clear that you've put in a lot of hard work to promote Leo Threads within your community, and it's paying off.
We haven't done much else than simply take 5 minutes every day to upvote the threads that carry the liotes tag but it's definitely paying off :-)
Very cool stuff! I !LUV the initiative in general... you always seem to be thinking about how to do things better and more intelligently. Full steam ahead, Captain @achim03! 👉

ENTER @WIN.HIVE'S DAILY DRAW AND WIN HIVE!
I am wondering what I should use with this tag? I don't think I use the tag very often because I don't want to abuse any tag. I think I have only used the #liotes tag maybe once or twice.
The tag is only relevant within threads. On normal posts it doesn't bring anything at the moment. Feel free to use it in all your threads ;-)
That's a good piece of News, Achim. The results of the project's consistency will surely motivate others to be consistent in their actions.
I think I will start using the tag. We are buddies, right Achim brother? 😜
Don't hesitate ;-)
!PIZZA
You are right that a lot of whales are not there to upvote threads
But we are getting there
Yes, for the moment thre are not many big accounts upvoting threads...
$PIZZA slices delivered:
@hafiz34(1/10) tipped @achim03
Haha I admit that I was one of those that started with excitement but lost track after a while. Time to relook into it again!

This is an important reminder. I have a feeling some people used the tag without knowing why, just because they saw it at others.
Yes plenty of people who have no idea about liotes are using the tag and in a way they make sure that it stays trending :-)
Awareness for the project is definitely a good thing.
Congratulations @achim03! You received a personal badge!
Wait until the end of Power Up Day to find out the size of your Power-Bee.
May the Hive Power be with you!

Check out our last posts:
My previous @v4vapp proposal has expired. I have a new one which is running but unfunded right now. I'm still running @v4vapp and all my other services.
I've just updated v4v.app and I'm getting ready for some exciting new features after the next hard fork.
Please consider asking your friends to vote for prop #265 or consider unvoting the return vote.
For understandable reasons in the current crypto climate it is harder to get funded by the DHF, I accept this so I'm asking a wider audience for help again. I'll also add that I power up Hive every day and usually power up larger amounts on 1st of the Month. I'm on Hive for ideological reasons much more than for only economic benefit.
Additionally you can also help with a vote for Brianoflondon's Witness using KeyChain or HiveSigner
If you have used v4v.app I'd really like to hear your feedback, and if you haven't I'd be happy to hear why or whether there are other things you want it to do.
