Welcome aboard. Great place to be.

Hello and welcome to Hive! I'm so glad that you're on here with us. It's incredible, we have a HUGE number of people from Nigeria that have created an account on here! I would guess that it's one of the biggest groups in all of Africa that are here on Hive with us. I think that's incredible!

By the looks of your interests, I think you will find several communities that you could enjoy like foodies and there are some great ones for the little kids like Home Edders (home education) among many others. I think it would be great to just dive right into our communities and start talking with people to make some friends!

If you have any questions please let me know and I can see what I can do to help, it is a complicated place at times but once you learn some of the basics it's a lot of fun!


One of the things I wanted to do is give you a piece of advice that could make this place awesome for you! Talking with some of the people who have been here for a while, we remember one of the best things we did was find other people’s posts through others or go looking and start commenting meaningful things. If you drop small phrases it won’t get you much attention but if you look at a persons post and leave a great comment, a lot of times they will appreciate it and talk with you. If you continue to do this you will develop a friendship with them and will gain followers and grow your account. This is not an easy and fast process. It takes time but the more effort you put in the more you can be rewarded, with limitations of course.

I just say this in hopes you go out there and really connect with people and grow your account. The more we all do this, the more people will come here to take advantage of such a great place.

There’s also a great article that can answer a lot of the questions you may have. Please visit it at:
