If you're talking about a post on Medium, they earn money based on reading time by paid members. How exactly that is worked out, no one seems to know who is telling.
BUT, since you're replying on Hive, I'm going to answer you for posts posted on Hive. When you post on Hive, people upvote you if they like your post. The amount that upvote is worth is based on how much Hive Power (HP) they have locked in. The more the voter has the more you will earn. SO, yes, the voter has to be a Hive member.
ALSO, you share that upvote with those who do the upvoting. So half goes to you and the other half gets divvied up between those who voted on your post. That is called curation. Every member can curate on Hive.
You don't earn for sharing on other social media. You can however get it in front of other Hive members who might not have seen it or you might get
someone's attention who ends up joining Hive. The more the merrier.
Does that answer your questions?
That answers my questions, but brings another questions why not at least pay for people to encourage them share on social media to bring more traffic and raise awareness?
Because did you know If it wasn't for duck duck go I wouldn't be here?
Google filters a lot than what I thought.
That's interesting to know about Google. I've recently seen some articles claiming that Duck Duck is the better search engine.
So here's a thought. If you're a member of a community, like Hive, do you really need to be paid for every move to support that community? Or would you want to pitch in and do what you can to help it grow?
I was just looking at your account. I see you were on Medium, glad to see you made your way over here.
Also, is that a community you created where you're posting? You might want to also reblog your posts so they show up on your general blog as well as in the community. You're doing pretty decent on Hive. Nice work.
I know where you are coming from, and I see your point. So for example I have published my book on hive, something that I could easily sell. Publishing it online that means someone else might copy the entire book and sell to those who know nothing about hive. As long as it's public we don't know who is on the other side of the fence but if it was exclusive for members that would be better. Don't you think?
Yes I was on medium, but I wanted to see what hive is all about, so far I am liking it, I need to learn more about it because I thought it was just a blog but I see there are videos, video games and such its a bit overwhelming.
I consider Hive a lot like sitting down to eat an elephant.. one bite at time and pause often to enjoy that bite knowing the next one is still there to enjoy.
By the way, how do I talk to hive programmers? I have millions of questions. Because I have lots of ideas that I think the #hiveblock could be perfect for my projects.
The programmers a diverse group. If you're on Discord you might want to talk to @foxon who might be able to give you an idea of who to contact

The Hive Developer discord is where devs hang out. Mostly helping each other with various things. There is also a "looking-for-dev" channel there if you are looking to hire developers familiar with Hive
if you have a book that you can easily sell, then it would be best not to publish it on the blockchain which will can be found forever. The blockchain is fully transparent and stays there forever. You might want to read the post I put up a few days ago The Crypto Learning Curve
I write on both Medium and Hive. I look for regular income on Medium but treat anything I earn on Hive as an investment for future use. Was just reading your post about how you came to Hive.
Getting posts in front of viewers is not easy on any platform. You might want to check out the @dreemport account. That's a project that is currently in testing that is focused on curation across platforms. It's really cool.
You might want to have a look at this post from last month of mine -- Cross Platform Curation Project which will describe the project.
Can you help me on setting up my community, I want to know how to collect info on specific tags
Posted via D.Buzz
It looks like you have started a community called broaderinsights? What else are you in need of?
To see what is in a tag just explore that tag like this:
https://peakd.com/trending/dreemer
In this one... dreemer is the tag. When I look in there I find posts from the people at DreemPort
I need to know how do you use tags to collect posts with that tags. I want to use the tag #broaderinsights
