What are Topic Tags?

[Hippie]

I see it all the time at the bottom of a question I ask, but I never knew what it was or what its for.

So I always left it blank

Hi Hippie.
Topic tags allow something to be searchable as it is the tags that are found by the search engine. If you can identify the main points in your post, it means others can find it when looking for specific information. I hope this helps.

That helps a lot and explains a lot

It’s the same as a hashtag would be on twitter (#pantyhose), makes it a searchable subject.

I barely know what Twitter is, but thank you.

I really don’t do social media, heck I never had a MySpace page or whatever they are using now days

Chatrooms & CB radios, now that’s my form of social media
