2. What This Is
This is a quick start guide to get you started on
Triberr now. This assumes you have signed up
for Triberr and have your profile and settings
complete. You have your blog feeding into
Triberr and have connected all your social
networks.

3. Before We Begin
• There is a lot more to Triberr than what I will cover here. I
urge you to explore and learn. But my goal with this is to
simply get you started so you can get more traffic to your
blog. Follow these steps and you will have great results in
no time.
• One really important thing to remember: Triberr is first and
foremost a social network. And on social networks you get
what you give. And it always starts with giving first.
• If you expect to setup an account and collect your
traffic, you're not going to be happy. Like any social
network, you have to make connections, join the
conversation and add value.

4. Step #1 - Join Tribes
• When you join a social network like Facebook or
Twitter, the first thing that happens is that you connect
with people. Once you do that, you will begin seeing
their status updates in your news feed. The same
process has to happen on Triberr. The difference is you
see blog posts in your news feed which on Triberr is
called the stream.
• Click TRIBES at the top of the page.
• Click EXPLORE NEW TRIBES.
• Notice in the picture below, there are already tribes on
my page. You need to add tribes before you will see
this.

6. • Select the category you want to explore from
the drop down menu.
• Find the category that you most want to share
content from and have them share you.

8. • You will see every tribe available within that
category.
• Click on the image of the tribe to see what the
tribe is all about.
• Within the tribe you can see the About and
Members.
• About will give you a brief description and show
you the stream for that tribe.
• Click the FOLLOW button if you want to become a
member.

10. A Member
• A member of a tribe will have their blog posts
appear in the stream of all other members
and followers of that tribe. Members can
share posts they see and other tribe members
and followers can share theirs.

11. A Follower
• A follower can see blog posts by other members
and followers. However, their blog posts are not
seen by other members and followers. To have
your blog posts seen you must become a member
of a tribe.
• To become a member, you must first follow the
tribe and then be promoted to a member by the
tribe chief. You can also be invited to a tribe by a
chief. Invitations will appear on your tribe page.
The more you participate, the more invitations
you will get.

12. Reach
• When you see the reach of a tribe, this means
the cumulative total of all member and
followers social networks. If I have 11k
followers and you have 11k followers and we
are the only tribe members, our tribe can
potentially reach is 22k followers.
• This is not to say you should look for only
tribes with the largest reach. Quality over
quantity always wins the day.

13. The Key
• Find tribes that look like they will be a good fit
for you and follow some. You don't need to
follow every tribe. Remember, the more you
follow, the more you see in your stream. You
can filter your stream view by tribe. But the
big thing to remember is quality over quantity
always wins.

14. Other Ways To Find Tribes
• If you know a member by name, search for
them using the search bar on the top left of
any screen.
• Or from within a tribe you follow, click the
members tab and click on a specific member
to see more detail about them including what
other tribes they are a member of.

15. Other Ways To Find Tribes

16. Step #2 - Share Other People's
Content
• As mentioned in step 1, you need to be a
member to have other people see and share
your content. The fastest path to becoming a
member is to share other people's content
first.
• Click STREAM on the top menu.
• If you are a follower or a member of many
tribes, you can filter by tribe to pare down
your stream.

18. • Go through your stream to find the content you
want to share. You are not required to share
anything. Pick what you like.
• Sticky posts are promoted and will appear at the
top.
• When you find one you like, the big green SHARE
button will share to all your connected networks.
• Or click the smaller SHARE link to select only the
networks you want to share to.

20. • When you click the small SHARE link under the
post, it will open the networks you are
connected to. You can then choose to share to
whichever you would like.

22. • The more people whose content you share, the
more they will see you. Below are my
notifications that show all of the people who are
sharing my content. When I see 'Via
@MichaelSBrooks' at the end of the tweet I know
I can safely assume they came from Triberr.
• Hint: Triberr users (for the most part) are very
active on Twitter.
• As you are sharing content, take note of people
you like. This will be important in step #4.

24. Step # 3 - Join The Conversation
• Leaving comments on someone's blog is a sure way to get on their
radar. Assuming they are not spammy of course.
• Triberr has made commenting an active part of the network. You
can comment on someone's post within Triberr. If they use Triberr
comments on their blog, the comment will be live on their blog
post. But it will also appear on Triberr in the CONVERSATIONS tab.
• You can leave comments on blog posts as well as within tribes. As
you use this feature, you will see how comments are woven into
the platform in many ways.
• In the example from Step #2 you can see someone left a comment
on the blog post. This activity will increase your visibility which in
turn will increase the likelihood of being invited to be a member of
a tribe.

25. Step # 3 - Join The Conversation
• Leave comments on blog posts you like. The
more active you are, the more people will
want to know you.
• If you want to become a member of a tribe
you are following and sharing content
from, introduce yourself within that tribes
conversation.

27. • Every tribe is run by a chief. The chief is the only one
who can promote a follower to a member or invite new
members.
• Every tribe has a member limit. Once maxed the chief
cannot approve any more members.
• Most chiefs will only approve active members. This
means if they click on you and don't see that you are
sharing other people's content, you probably won't get
many promotions to a member.
• Remember, only members have their content appear in
the stream of other members and followers.

28. Step #4 - Start Your Own Tribe
• As you go through Step #2 and you share
content, you will start to find people you really
enjoy reading. A great way to become a
member of a tribe is to start your own and
then invite those people you like to join.
• Click TRIBES from the top menu.
• Click ADD TRIBE.

30. Name your tribe and select a category

31. • Go into SETTINGS to add an optional header
image and update the description.
• Click on PROFILE to see what the public sees
when they find your tribe.

33. • Find members you want to invite to your new
tribe.
• Click the big green SEND INVITE button.
• Choose which tribes you want to invite them to.
• They will get a notification email as well as see
their invites on the TRIBE screen.
• If they accept your invite, they will be a member.
No need to promote them from a follower.

35. • Eventually, people will find your tribe and
follow it.
• You can promote them from a follower to
member by clicking the MEMBER tab then
click the ACTIONS button from within.

37. • Finally, the more active you are, the more
invites you will receive. Below is my TRIBE
page. All the tribes I have been invited to
appear on the right. Once you receive invites
(and you will) they will appear here for you as
well.

39. Step #5 - Just Use It
• There are no shortcuts to success on Triberr or
any social network. The key is simple:
• Create great content that people want to share.
• Share other people's content.
• Comment on other people's content.
• Show your value then ask to be a member of
tribes you follow.
• Start your own tribe.

40. • Make sure to look me up on Triberr. I'd love to
hear how it goes for you!
