I've just kick-started recruiting people to Steemit and it's so unbelievable to see who my first Steemit Outreach brought to this great platform.
If you are a true blogger in Nigeria, an especially a tech blogger, then you already know who Mr Ilyas Akin, @easymade is. But to those that don't, let me tell you few things about him.
Who is Mr ilyas Akin?
Mr Ilyas Akin is the CEO of the famous tech blog in Nigeria; EasyMadeBlog; a blog that provides every needed information for newbies and pro bloggers, ranging from "How Tos" to other trendy topics. It is a reputable blog which many wouldn't believe when told that such a young man is the man behind it. Mr Ilyas is also an internet entrepreneur that has worked with several top bloggers both in tech and entertainment niches in Nigeria. I learnt everything that has to do with blogging through his updates on his blog, and as a mentor, he's responsible for the success my entertainment blog, TeeKingTV is currently enjoying. He is the writer of the famous book titled "The Complete Blogging Guide For Beginners", a book that got several copies sold. Aside being a pro blogger at a tender age, he also runs a salon at Lagos, Nigeria.
How I got Sir Ilyas attention to Steemit
When I first chatted him up on Whatsapp to discuss about Steemit to him, he told me, just as I expected that he's heard about it, but his schedules wouldn't permit him to give some spaces to explore and see how Steemit works. If you know me, Tee King as a person, then you ashould know that I don't give up easily. Especially when I set my mind on something. So I kept persuading him and kept giving him reasons why he should consider blogging on this platform. As a freelance writer that has written several e-books, he got interested when I mentioned it to him that Steemit doesn't permit pliagiarism and that such great platform reward high quality contents authors for their hard work. I also emphasized on the challenges Tech bloggers face by earning very low income through Google Adsense as most of their readers are tech experts who are used to adverts and hardly mistake them for contents or click through and I was able to convince him to give it some trial. Seeing such a great writer in this platform is assuring of the great value of this amazing platform.
