RE: What Other Social Platforms Do I Use?

in #steemit7 years ago

Figures. Aside from texts and some phone calls, I'm not regularly using my phone for much of anything else. Occasional web surfing, checking stocks and weather, and maybe reading a new story or two. That's it.

The rest, I'm on the laptop, with a couple of monitors that allow me to actually see the details of what I'm doing with a keyboard my fat fingers can use.

I think it's probably time for me to get off of Facebook completely. I'm just going to get the page I'm working on up to 20,000 page likes and then I'll be done with all of it.

Sort:  

You should promote Steemit there if it's a place where it is appropriate and you haven't already.

It's a church related site mostly for members (though not restricted to them by any means), so I don't know how well it would work to just promote Steemit, but if the page were ever to move here, than it would make great sense.

"We've moved! Follow us on Steemit! Get your account today, tomorrow, next week, in the not-so-distant future. :)

I've thought about that possibility already. I'd have to talk to the silent partner about it, though. I don't know if he knows about Steemit or would even want to try it.

Ah, in that case, I can see how that may not be appropriate.

*silent partner, meaning ... ?

Well, I think equity partner might be more what I should call it, but it's not even fully that. Basically, he was the one who created the page, but he wasn't doing much with it until I became one of his interns and he put me on it back in January of 2016. At the time there was 9,122 page likes, but he hadn't posted since the end of December and I took it over on January 27.

Our arrangement is, I get all ad and affiliate link revenue from an associated website, but he gets a percentage of any product I might sell from it. Well, nothing's ever been sold from the site (no products yet), and the last time I asked about Google Adsense revenue (about a year ago), there was something like $50, I think. I don't expect it's moved up much in the intervening time, and the now the website is down (the site was not automatically renewed).

So, anyway, not sure what the future holds for the page, but in the immediate future I will be trying to get it over the 20,000 page likes threshold. :) There's roughly 400 likes to go, but people keep un-liking the page so it's been stuck at around the same amount for a couple weeks.

Oh, I see. Thank you for explaining. I hope you reach the goal soon.
