Watch thread tags

[Alpha1]

It would be very useful to be able to watch a tag. This way a member can subscribe to discussions on content that interests the member. This would be a very powerful way to keep members interested, as they would receive alerts about content that interests them.

This would also be very useful for addons.

I know this is a core suggestion but this is a feature of Tag Essentials.

Such a very useful feature. Forums win in SEO on long-tail searches by bringing people together with a passionate interest in a subject. 80% of my Google referrals are from extremely specific threads where Google has decided that we are the authority. Being able to watch tags will help us to attract and retain members who create these authoritative threads.

I think that if members would be able to watch thread tags then they will also use thread tags more and more precise. Which in turn affects SEO positively. So it has multiple benefits.

This would be a great feature for some communities. People could be informed about local events and news if city names were used in tags.

I'd also like to request that tag watching be added to the core software. I think this would be a great way to not miss the most interesting threads on a busy forum.
