The last couple weeks, I have been letting my Youtube subscribers and facebook followers know about my move to Steemit. I have over 45k Youtube subscribers and over 100K Facebook followers. And we're just getting started. My audience is geared mostly toward Modern Homesteading.
As different segments of the web begin to learn and understand cryto-currencies and blockchain technology, we will continue to see these segments move in that direction. Social media giants like Youtube contain almost every interest category you can think up and little by little certain individuals are turning their followers and subscribers on to this strange new technology.
A couple weeks ago I made a video showing our disgust with Youtube over its haphazard censorship and regulation methods. I came out to my youtube subscribers that I was moving at least in part to Steemit as I saw it as currently the best alternative that would allow me to keep my video content free and still provide an income potential.
Email after email and PM after PM came in saying that others had also made a move to Steemit. That was really encouraging. What was even more encouraging is that I started to see lots of postings under the category of homesteading. These newly arrived participants were already contributing content...and a lot of it was really good! A lot of emails showed concern about not understanding how it all worked. Change can be scary. This will change with time.
My little piece of the world is all centered around off-grid homesteading. Modern homesteading. I've announced far and wide to my audience that we are making a jump to Steemit and really excited about the upcoming SteemQ video platform.
Youtube can keep their pop culture click bait TV programming. There is something new on the horizon and I'm curious enough to ride along and participate so that my segment of the homesteading world can continue to learn and grow.
So hey Steemians! WELCOME THE HOMESTEADERS!!
