The last few days I see more and more posts appearing about 'not been seen', 'no exposure' , 'Ghost followers', and I can agree in some things being written, but then I directly ask the question ** "What is your motivation beeing on Steemit"** . That's key for me "What is your motivation".
I do have written a lot about my motivation beeing on Steemit and the funny thing is that I also notice it is hard to get the right public for your content, and you know what ? It is even getting harder in the near future :) , that's because Steemit is still growing rappidly and more and more people are joining. Which is fantastic of course but it makes the amount of posts people must handle thousands times more.
But my motivation is becomming bigger and bigger everyday, I getting more and more enthousiastic every single day.... There is a danger to that too, I am almost 24/7 on steemit, writing posts, reading others, participating in discussions. So I have to be aware it isn't becomming an addiction :).
The whole Facebook discussion should be an eye-opener for many people though, I am no privacy-geek but the fact that Facebook is making millions over our back's, selling our information should be a sign that things arent right with Mark zuckerberg and friends... I will make that a lot of people do delete their facebook account and switch to Steemit for instance.
I am currious how you all bond with fellow Steemians, I try to read all posts from the people I follow and following me. Though it's hard because of the diversity of tags an posts themselves. But I truely believe that is the only way to get to know the people behind the posts any better and you bond together. Like I said before I am not in here for the money but it is a nice side effect of course. Sometimes it is hard to defend saying that you are not in here for te money. But my defense is simple ;) I had a Facebook account which I used a lot in the past, and there I also posted a lot... So it is quite simpel to say I like posting :) lol....
Of course I can give you all kinds of tips on how to use Steemit and grow and so, but that wouldn't be credible if you look at my own exposure (lol). But I do believe that genuine posts about topics of interest (your own) eventually will be seen, so keep faith in the platform, keep faith in your own quality and knowledge, but most of all keep faith in eachother... We are here to help....
Have a great day together and we talk again soon !!!!
