Have you ever tried onboarding someone into hive.blog and they ended up telling you they have issues creating an account on hive blog.
In my view, creating an account on hive is far more simple and easy compared to other social media like the Facebook or Twitter that asks for more information like date of birth and others.
Unfortunately, it pains me to see people saying they don't understand how to create an account on hive.blog and it is complicated for them.
So, I am making this blog not only for the unregistered people yet to join hive but for those already registered so they can send the link to their referrals to follow the steps to creating an account on hive.
I will be discussing two methods of creating an account on Hive which are;
- Phone verification method through Hive onboard
- Email verification method through Esteem app
RULES FOR SELECTING YOUR UNIQUE HIVE USERNAME
- Your username cannot be less than 3 characters.
- Your username cannot contain more than 16 characters.
- Username not available means the username has been used by another user.
- Username invalid means the character used in the username is not allowed.
- Characters allowed includes alphabet, numbers and hyphen (-).
- Your username should start with a small letter.
- Your username can only begin with a letter and end with either a letter or a number.
NOTE: It is preferably you make use of Brave or Chrome browser when creating an account

IF YOU DON'T KNOW ME, KINDLY READ THROUGH
My name is Emmanuel Popoola, I am from West Africa, Nigeria. I am a lead guitarist, so I make vlogs playing songs suggested by my readers/viewers and post them every Friday (Which I call Hive Music Friday). I also focus in onboarding new members into Hive, so you will likely be seeing Reblogs of Introductory Posts. Sometimes, I do blog about posts I have read from other bloggers that interest me, so you could also check them out. While some of my other blogs could be my entry to various tasks, personal life stories and daily life, and motivational topics.
