I find people are ignoring the potential rewards of commenting on submissions they like. If you are not a great writer, get out there and interact with the community. You will be surprised at the success you will have.
Edit. I'm giving away another $50 Steam card. There's a couple hours left. You don't need to upvote. It's just for fun. Follow the linky my fellow minnows: https://steemit.com/steemit/@cryptobarry/i-am-giving-away-another-usd50-cdn-steam-card-on-steemit-pick-a-number-from-1-1000
Hi Barry, great advice, but i dont think that only commenting or interacting will buy you anything.
I am a newbie here on Steemit, but i dont think that a bad writer can make a lot through comments
This is what i learned in 30 days of Steemit.
1.) Timing (be the first , you will maybe get a great reward, yeah so maybe you will be lucky)
2.) Where are you posting (Location, Location, Location, same for postings. Only if you post where a whale comes in and votes, or 200 dolpines going to vote you, you are really making money on a comment, so on 90% of the posts you wont earn 0 on comments)
3.) Right words ( if 1 and 2 were not difficult enough, you have to find the right tone and wording to please a whale with your comment)
So my theorie is that, you have to be a very good writer to hit a home-run comment. if not you might be able to get 5-20$ once in a while, but that's it!
my 2 cents !
Don't forget guys that from curating you get MUCH more rewards if you have more Steem Power !!!
Oh you don't, go look at my wallet. The majority is from 4 comments.😛
Edit. Oh wait I got you. Yeah you might be right.
My best post was for Steemdown a tool by @ bitcoiner. He made a great tool to track whales power down and had $4 after 5 hours. I took a screen shot of his ap, added some obvious takeaways and then Linked to his post. I made a buck and he made a grand but it was pretty easy on my part. Maybe 5 minutes.
Indeed! I find the comment sections some times to be even more interesting than the original post.
But its important to find your own community of the things you like and know about, and comment on stuff that really interest you, doesn't matter if you ask questions, give compliments or just have a debate about a matter. As long as its relevant contribution to the blogpost, its all good!
Also don't get discouraged after not receiving many votes and trying for a week, it will come in time. The community is growing all the time and making connections is as important now as it will always be.
follow me and upvote my posts... I will do that for you as well, we can help build a network for each other...
You shouldn't see it as just a random group of people following random accounts just to vote because you are part of it. That's not the right way to think about this platform, in my opinion.
Just connect with the people/tags you are interested in yourself and it will all come naturally over time. More people are joining every day, you are sure to make connections that you can relate with instead of just random groups blindly giving their votes to their own group of authors.
I hope you understand my viewpoint. I don't like voting on something just cause all others are voting on it because of a reason other than the content quality.
Exactly learned that from the Steemit queen @stellabelle
I fucking love all your success here good job brother you truly deserve it disregard the damn haters. You built your self to become a crypto God!!!! Wish I was a crypto God maybe some day. Out of the ashes a Steemit Phoenix arises!

I have made far more commenting that posting. ( but actually he most from voting and from the steady increase of Steem power. ) Even so it's fun to be in he community, shape how it grows by making suggestions and rooting it in when they get someone like dollar vigilante. I would probably posts more if I hadn't used my real name to sign up (keep that in mind newbies)
Denny I have made an amazing business online using one thing, my personal brand. I promise that I will be sharing all of my marketing and social media secrets here on Steemit to help the community flourish. Don´t be afraid to let your personal brand shine. I bet you have plenty of value to add to the community.
I do agree Rome wasn't build in one day, so yes people can learn great skills of mixing with others, and communicating., networking, spreading happiness and knowledge :)
I try to comment when I can. I think people also have to be more willing to follow others, because it's a little hard to filter through all of the new posts, especially with a quickly growing community. If you find someone you like, follow them!
On that note - follow me! I have some exciting plans with the platform. Check out my latest post and help make a difference in lots of lives.

Very few comments ever make anything and if they do they do it is such a small amount the reward vanishes at payout.
Totally agreed.
