1- Steemit is a kind of social media that gives room for international communication, people from different part of the world can see your post, irrespective of who you are or your race(provided you are no scam)
2- People are able to display to the world their hand work, talents and opinion via Steemit. On Facebook your posts might be restricted to your own geographical area or country.
On Steemit it goes wide and wild.
3- I often meet friends that tells me, "Steemit is a waste of time, look for a better thing to do that'll fetch you money". Well to me me Steemit is never a waste of time, even if i dont get paid or up voted, I love shearing my views and opinion to entities across Nigeria.
4- Steemit is not only about the fun, it educates, check out the post/blogs, there is always a takeaway.
5- Steemit rewards hard work.
Some people might have been blogging for so long with or without low up votes, Steemit doesn't just dash away money, you gat to work for it, be constant in your posts.
Post meaningful articles, original ones. Make your money.
6- Steemit is the future.
