When choosing a tag, I look out for the word or phrase that explains what I'm writing on. For instance, if I'm writing on

How to Cure Vagina Thrush Using Homemade Remedies

Then I select the health tag as this is a health topic. If my article is well-researched and detailed with a lot of scientific facts, then I also add the steemstem tag.

Next, I pick other general but relayed tags to give my blog post a better chance of getting picked so I select tags like life or community.

In summary, when picking tags, I ensure they are related to the topic being treated, and not just tags I feel are popular and gets a high percentage of hits.
