How to write on steemit?

in #steemit7 years ago

How much should I write per day? This is a question everyone who joins steemit asks, most don't even ask and just write as much as they can and post as much as they can.

I have been helping out a few new people on steemit get used to the platform and how to use the platform properly. One thing I have noticed is that they understand that followers means more votes, but what they don't get is how to get these followers.

They start posting more and more per day to make sure people see their blog, but does this really work.
The answer is simple, no. For many people whose vote means something, they look at the blog and label you as a spammer. Some people may follow depending on the quality of your content, but it is still best to not chase people away.

So what is the perfect amount of posts to do per day? For new members I would say post at least once a day and twice (one in the morning and one in the evening) if possible. Once you have gotten a following and know what your followers like, it is time to only post once per day as curators are only going to upvote once per day.

I would strongly suggest posting at least once per day, whether you are new or been here for a while. Posting each day will allow your account to grow and your following to grow as well. If you feel you need to post more or need more followers, commenting is the way to go.

Networking is the key to increasing the value you receive on each post, but this is only worth doing once your content creation is valuable and when people like it. Don't try to vote beg, many people just brush it off and some might even flag you. So just create really good content and try your best to make friends no matter the size of their account.

Thank you, it was straight to the point, precise and informative

@dragonslayer101 this is very educative thanks for the heads 👆 😂😁

Good level-headed advice not only for newbees but also for those who have been on the platform for a while but could use a bit of constructive guidance. For me, the most thing to remember about this post is the importance of building an audience and providing it with quality content that it likes. By consistently following this principle, over time the audience will grow and it will reward you with upvotes. Tim Cliff @timcliff, a very prominent Steemian, sums this up very nicely in part of his Steemit success series here.

yes, you are right brother. good and quality content is number one to get follower and success on steemit

Good advice thx!

That was so informing thank you

Thank you very much! This is exactly what I asked myself during the last days! I appreciate your help a lot! :)
Best wishes to you!

This is one good advice. I agree , too many posts chase people away. another thing is that an upvote has a value attached to it. Too many posts means that you are abusing the upvotes of your loyal followers. They will stop giving you 100% upvote. Hence each of the post will not earn a value upvote. As a beginner one post a day is good. But once you acheive a 50 plus reputation, 2 to 3 posts per week and networking keeps the followers comfortable and improves your credibility . .

This is the best attitude that I think is the only way this community can flurish. If we all do it naturally without seeking money/follower. I think its really nice.

If you think about it, we don't browse facebook expecting a return, but we on facebook like we are working there lol.

Cheers!

Thank you so much for this post. Very informative.

Fair advice. Resteemed for increased visibility.

Nice one, thanks for the guideline.

Thank you, this is really helpful!

Thank you, I've been publishing for six months, I left the account for a while, I came back again and I'm documenting the best content.

Great post and good advice. But isn't it important too to spend some time to relax, to read some funny posts and to watch some great videos on DTube? What is your goal if you want to post every day?

Nice and simple. Knowing what to expect helps a lot;)

Thank you for writing this! I have been experimenting with posting over the past couple of days, and had wondered about how often was ideal to post.

I've been posting about twice a day and it has felt pretty good thus far. I know @jerrybanfield recommends posting once a day, considering that readers will usually only digest one article per day. He also states that it helps to keep your posts high quality.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this @dragonslayer101. Would love to hear your thoughts on my latest post: 3 MIND-ALTERING Ways To Inspire Your Next Steemit Post

Truthful words from someone who did exactly what you described. To summarize quality beats quantity. I now know the steemit block chain will only have value if the posts that is within this block chain useful data. Posts with data that can be used beyond the 7 days after rewards are one example of great posts. I am still trying to strive to that and hope I get there someday.

Thanks sir for the info great work

Thank you for helping people my friend. 🤙🤙

Helpful and thoughtful.thanks

Great advice for a newbie! Thanks.

Thanks for the information@dragonslayer101

Thanks for the advice I'll try to apply what you said.
The thing is that I feel like even if I am posting everyday nobody is seeing my posts. Is it common thing for beginners or people who don't have a lot of influence ?
How to improve my visibility on the feed ?
I understand that I have to comment, post, resteem and bring content, add value for the community.
Any other tips?

I feel your post is really helpful to new members like me. Thanks !

I support you. The same happens to me. I am new. The little that he wrote, is for me I want to continue creating original content and that people are interested.
