This post will be rather short but of utmost importance.
Lately I've been having some great results and meanwhile I truly appreciate each Follower I have, each Upvote, Comment and Resteem I get on my content, I feel obligated to say this.
I have been talking about "paying it forward" in my recent posts and I still encourage everyone to Resteem content they like.. However, I haven't mentioned any potential downsides of Resteems.
Now, it's time to address this..
If and when you Resteem content you increase the chances for your followers to see the posts and that's obviously great and an act of kindness. The authors will have a higher chance to reap further rewards. In terms of followers, resteems, upvotes and of course, money.
All of that is really great and in each aspect wonderful.
However, you could potentially hurt yourself if and when you Resteem content.
- And why is that?
Each new post you publish or Resteem will show up in your followers feed.
Let me give you an example of how the feed looks like:
That means, if you were to publish 50 new posts per day, your followers might actually decide to un-follow you due to all your so-called "spam". Even if all your posts were of high quality.
The fact is, that it works the same way with content you Resteem. - Resteem is an amazing 'tool' to bring authors more recognition.. But it has it's potential downsides too.
Make sure you don't Resteem 100's of posts each day. That might ultimately leave you with followers who walks away from you (un-follow), even though it's still an act of kindness.
Wait, there's more to it..
If you find a post and you truly believe that specific author deserves more rewards and more recognition for their work.. - Make sure you Resteem the post.
However, if you Resteem several posts each day, you'll automatically push the very first post you truly liked to the bottom of the feed.
Remember, the coin is always two-sided.
If you haven't already, make sure you read my previous post:
The Real RESTEEM Power. "Pay it forward definitely works!"
Resteem content you like, but DON'T Resteem EVERYTHING you see.
