Hi Hive account@tav.com . The general consesus right now is that it IS okay to cross post. I have reposted the health-related articles from one of my blogs, and add the link back to the original blog posts in case the bots, like "cheetah" start commenting that they have found the same content elsewhere. I also run one of my client's accounts, Hive account@bitcoinsandgravy , and we repost his YouTube podcast (converted into video) files onto D-Tube. Also, Steemit has a way of accounting for when people view your Steemit pages from outside of Steemit, so this is some inventive there. Do a little more research, as there ARE quite a few good Steemit posts which discuss this topic in detail...
