If you'd like to increase your followers and maximize your visibility and interactions on Post, we encourage you to utilize the the 6 C's to your advantage:

Content, Comments, Community, Civil Conduct, Credible Sources, and Cross-Posting.

Content - Create posts that are captivating, amusing, thought-provoking, visually appealing, useful, quirky, or heartfelt. If you're aiming to expand your follower base, consider how your content will resonate with the community before hitting that "post" button. When you engage with others via Likes, Tips, or in the Comment Section, it's likely that they'll check out your profile page. It's more likely that they'll then follow you if consistently generate content for their Following feed

Comments - If you see a post that catches your eye while scrolling through your feed, don't hesitate to chime in! Currently, conversations in the comments section are the lifeblood of our community interactions. Whether it's a compliment or a thoughtful conversation starter โ€” remember to keep it civil, even if you disagree. Commenting increases your visibility, so make sure that what you're putting out there adds value to the conversation and abides by our Content Rules.

Community - Build your own community with people who share your interests through #Topics. Search by #Topics and add your favorites to see who's out there to connect with. Help others find you by adding relevant hashtags to your posts, making sure they appear in the appropriate #Topics feeds.

Civil Conduct - Our Content Rules exist to ensure the safety of the community and the integrity of the platform. Please familiarize yourself with them before posting or commenting on Post. Repeated or serious violations can result in action against your account that will decrease your visibility on the platform. We've also found that users who do not abide by our policies and guidelines are frequently muted or blocked by other members of the community, resulting in decreased followers and engagement on Post.

Credible Sources - Sharing misinformation is a violation of our Content Rules and quickly gets reported by users. Please check your sources before you post. You're more likely to be muted than followed if you post controversial content that is derived from unreliable sources.

Cross-Posting - At Post, we encourage sharing your content from other platforms and vice versa. A great way to start is by notifying your followers on other social media to connect with you on Post. Share your Post profile link across your social accounts and prompt them to follow you; this can include adding your Post account link to your website, profiles, newsletters, or making announcements. If you have unique content on Post, keep your audience informed about it and how often you'll be posting. Sharing your posts with followers on other platforms can foster engagement, increase your following, and boost content monetization if you opt for it.

*Please refrain from indiscriminately following accounts en masse in hopes of getting follow-backs. Such behavior is against our Content Rules and often raises concerns within the community, resembles bot-like activity, and discourages others from following you.
