Zentaurios categories work as tags for the Zentaurios ecosystem. Using categories puts the posts not only on the normal pages the posts are visible on, but also on the appropriate category page. It is beneficial for writers, readers, and Zentaurios that everyone uses categories on their posts.
Categories Make it Easier to Find Posts
Categories organize the posts by topics. Each category has its own URL. Check out the NFTs category page as an example. On the right hand side of computer screens, near the bottom of the home screen, and near the bottom of the post and profile screens on mobile, users can see and click on the categories. Also, each post lists the categories associated with that post and that list acts as links to those categories. Additionally, as the site grows, search engines will display the Zentaurios Category page higher up in search results. Not only does Zentaurios want each page to be as relevant as possible, it wants your post to be seen wherever it is relevant. Also, it is a major priority for readers to find what they are looking for.
Categories and Search Engines
In the picture below you can see that Google is indexing the pages of each Zentaurios Category. Looking back at the previous segment of this post, this supplies a great user experience to Zentaurios users but also people who find Zentaurios through search engines. However, Google is also indexing all of the posts of each category together. Using this technique, Google (and other search engines) will be able to not only see Zentaruios as a source of crypto, Web3, and NFT information, but be able to map out the relevancy of each category within crypto, Web3, and NFTs. This provides extreme value to writers who want to get their work read by the audience they are writing for.
Categories and Social Share
A major feature of Zentaurios is the ability to share posts and profiles with a few clicks. This helps Zentaurios be a content delivery solutions provider, #Web3cds. By using the categories, hashtags will be autofilled for Twitter with the categories you use. Also, if other people share your post or profile, you do not need to worry if they will remember to use hashtags, it will be done automatically. Of course, you can edit the Tweet to your liking. Follow the illustrations to see how the process works.
This article has the categories ZentaPost, Marketing, Developer, AMA, Web3, and Staking.
The social share is at the bottom of the post, highlighted in the image with the green box.
By clicking the Twitter icon, if logged in to Twitter, a Tweet will be autogenerated using the authors name as a hashtag but also hashtag the categories.
You may have noticed there are other social medias available. As far as I know, Facebook and LinkedIn are the only other two social medias that will autogenerate hashtags. Facebook and LinkedIn will only autogenerate one. For this reason, the authors name is autogenerated because the Authors are a larger priority than the categories. Again, you can edit your tweets however you want, but people who do not know the process and share you work will by default turn the writers name into a hashtag.
Conclusion
I hope you understand the power and significance of using Categories on Zentaurios. In one sentence, it automates the process of people and search engines finding you. Using categories will not only improve the search-ability of Zentaurios, but improve the visibility of authors.

Note: Using excessive categories can be counter productive to categorizing your posts or even appear like spam on certain social medias. Any excessive abuse of the categories is subject to an explanation, then warning, then removal of Author privileges. Thank you for your understanding.
