Tag Your Discussion?

When you write a discussion here do you tag it at the end or do you just skip the tag process? Is it better to make tags for them or just let it be? I do try to form tags but sometimes I do not have a clue as to what tags to place upon the discussion.

We do get relevant discussions lists and searching for something in the data base might get us to a discussion if there are tags. We don't get paid per say unless someone uses the discussion and we answer them. We get paid for all our contributions in that way. I think there should be a few tags in every discussion.

Thank you for the advice and input on this topic. I was not sure why the tags but after reading the other inputs as well I will do my best to tag my discussions.

I know it is important that we put tag/s on a discussion. However, there are times where I cannot think of a proper tag which will fit the discussion. But if I started a discussion, I see to it that I put tags on the discussion. Have a great day!

I usually try adding a tag or two to every discussion I respond. Even if the topic of discussion is very generic with no clear tags that can be added, I add some word from the topic itself. I believe its always a good idea to do so since these tags can then be used by MyLot to return better discussion when someone uses the myLot search feature to look for certain kind of discussions.

I will only put tags when I can figure out what keyword or words to use. It isn't always easy to do that, so those times i will just skip putting a tag. It is baxically just to help others find a discussion easier when there are tags. It isn't mandatory to tag, as it is to each person's discretion whether they tag or not. Take care, and have a great day.

I do not want to skip tag. It is because putting a tag is also important so that people find the discussion they are looking for. This is the importance of a Tag and this is what I know.

I always tag discussions i started and when i participate in other discussion i add tags only if i have one in mind - relevant for that discussion of course. Sometimes there are enough tags and i don't feel the need to add another tag.

Hmm I always add tags to discussion on what I have posted my responses, because in my opinion it will help people to search discussion in what they have interested. Do you think it affects our earnings?

I try to put tags whenever I can, at least one or two. As long as they are relevant to the discussion. :D But with this one, I do not know what tags to put so I'd skip it. Haha! I usually tag though, for real. :) I think it helps with categorizing the topics better?
