Signal is a way of signalling how much other writers on Typeshare enjoyed your post. You can also give Signal to any other post on Typeshare.

You can give Signal in the following amounts:

  • 25 (I liked this post)

  • 50 (I loved this post)

  • 250 (Best post of the day)

The 250 Signal amount is called "Gold" and you can only give gold to one post each day.

How to Earn Signal

Signal can be earned in 3 ways:

  1. Get awarded Signal by other Typeshare writers.

  2. Earn Signal when your content performs well on social platforms.

  3. Earn by leaving comments, and engaging on others' content.

The more Signal you and your posts earn, the higher you will appear on Typeshare's leaderboard and the more reach you will get on Typeshare.

How to Give Signal

When looking at someone else's post, hover over the Signal icon and then select the amount you want to give.

Every time you give Signal, you actually earn a bit for yourself!
