Q:What are Tags?
Answer
Tags are keywords to connect members with like interests. When you tag your profile, (Blog, Video, or eCard), it helps members find your profile, (Blog, Video, or eCard) who are interested in that tag.
Members can visit the
Tags page and click on the tags they are interested in, and your profile, eCards, videos, and eCards will be listed with the tags you've added.
- profile tag example: Tagging your profile with "camping", would help members who are interested in "camping" to find you.
- eCard tag example: Tagging your ecard with "flowers", would help members find your eCard who are looking for an eCard with "flowers".
- Video tag example: Tagging your video with "dancing" would help members find your video who are interested in watching videos about "dancing".
- Blog tag example: Tagging your blog with "embarrassing" would help members find your blog who are interested in reading blogs about "embarrassing" stories.
Note: Make sure your tags are relevant. If your eCard has nothing to do with "flowers", then don't tag it with "flowers". If "camping" is not your interest, don't tag your profile with "camping".

Q:What is a blog on Connecting Singles?
Answer
A Blog is a journal you may enter about your life, your thoughts, interesting experiences, or lessons you have learned. It's your own page on Connecting Singles that you can update on a regular basis, or just whenever you have something to say. You can write about an opinion, impart words of wisdom, or talk about something interesting in your day. Creating a blog is a good way to share something of yourself with Connecting Singles members. Reading blogs is a good way to learn more about members you have met here.
A blog IS NOT a personal-ad describing yourself or the person you are seeking. You have a profile on the site for that.
A blog is NOT for one-to-one chatting. You have onsite email for that. Click the "Email" button on a member's profile.
A blog IS NOT a Forum for discussion, debate, advice or asking questions of other members. Join the
Connecting Singles Forums for these purposes.
Use your blog to record your thoughts, opinions and ideas. All blogs are open to viewing by the public and to comments from other members (unless you disabled comments). You may read and then delete those comments to your blog if you wish. You may edit your own blog, however, you may not edit your comment to another member's blog.
