Today, I will talk about the platform itself Steemit and the users of it aka You guys..
I know it is hard for everyone here , making posts , earning cents for it most of the authors here don't have a upvote value over $0.10 (ME too) . But , I want you to know if you are gonna do it consistently then you are gonna make it :)
You are doing great.
If you have a reputation score (appears on the right of your name everytime) of above 25 means you have posted some blogs and articles Yes they might have not done well but that is still something . You contributed to this project we call steemit which is still in Beta mode.
Everytime you post , like , comment on steemit it popularizes steem or increases the reputation of this website itself ..
Let me tell you a shocking fact that i read in a post that said more than 50% of steemit accounts don't have a 30+ Reputation score .. Why ?? Because people quit , they make 7-10 posts and expected 100s of dollars on it as it can be seen on the "trending" page but the reality isn't even close to it . The reality is "You can't earn $100 per post unless you put in the effort and post quality 2-3 or even 1 article per day or be patient and wait for a year on the website posting consistently and waiting for your account to blow" Look unless a whale randomly upvotes you for 100% you aren't going to making that much money ..
People come here looking for easy cash and that is one thing i hate about cryptocurrencies that it made majority of the people impatient and made them think that wealth is easy to earn money you have to do nothing its easy .. Let me enlighten it isn't like that even in the crypto - space ..
You cant' make millions overnight , you can't be succesful blogger overnight nothing is gonna happen unless you do it right??
And with that lazy attitude people often come here thinking they would just come and start off making thousands of dollars,well not here Not happening and that is why over 50% of accounts have bad reputation because they Spam or try to scam people.. Urghh... How sad it is ....!!?? You have got a great oppurtunity like steemit and you decide to waste it by spamming people's post ..??
Stop dreaming and start doing .
I know now how an average person in-touch with crypto-currencies think .. Most of them go like " Oh-hey look the Bitcoin, look at ether If only had invested this much I would have been a millionaire by now .. Let me buy a bunch of this coin" and then they go and buy a coin and sell it off in months .. The Crypto-Market has taken the patient-discipline of investing from people and only the PEOPLE are at fault for this ..
Just so you know .. For making money on steemit you just have to stick with it nothing much ... HOW??
Well just with a casual browse of steemit accounts made a year or 2 years ago you would find that they are pretty big like $100K accounts too.....!!!
So, back to now so what if you just keep consistently posting and connecting up with people for a year now ..?? Like close your eyes for a year without having to worry what your post earns or how much upvotes you get because that's the most de-motivating factor... Just trust me " Close your eyes for 1 year and see"..
With all the popularity steemit is set to become a revolution trust me and you clearly don't wanna miss the train..
Some tips to grow your account..
- Stop worrying about what your post earns because that won't be problem when you get big
- Make friends - Now when I say make friends i don't mean spam their posts by " Hi", " Let's be friends" etc They might not like it . I mean to like their post regualrly , comment on it show interest or sometimes resteem some posts too [Just like you will do this one , right ? :) ]
- Use upvote bots - Now you made a great post with hours of work put in and then it earns 1 cent that's brutal and I know I had similar days when i started I recommened using upvote bots for such posts .... [ Don't use bots to earn income ...Be the one to deserve the reputation not rent it ;) ] Use them wisely
- DON'T EVER GIVE UP - surely this has to be most important don't be THAT person don't just leave steemit because you will return regretting it ..
- Think about how much you contributed instead of how much you got - People whine that they aren't making any money here it is all wasted and spread negativity and leave .. That's bad ... To recieve more you gotta give more its simple Contribute more and earn more..
That was it for today the overall conclusion is " BE WISE , BE PATEINT "
See you on top hope you will be there with me ;)
