RE: Steem is getting a lot of attention lately

in #steemit7 years ago

@penguinpablo
Hey, thanks for linking to my article on Zerohedge. I've posted it here on steemit as well (in fact it was birthed here, then x-posted).

https://steemit.com/promo-steem/@goldgoatsnguns/ai-censorship-another-person-wakes-up-to-why-steem-is-the-future

I fully embrace this platform as the future of creator-owned communication and have written a lot "in the real world" about it. It is one of the main ways we will undermine this control system they have planned for us.

Since I own the copyright, this article and pretty much everything I write on Crypto/steem/etc... makes it's way onto Medium and, now, Zerohedge. I don't write for them, they just scrape what I post to my blog.

Thanks again. Great post.

Sort:  

cool, didn't know this was yours...great work!; I'll change my blog to reflect your post instead of ZeroHedge

thanks!

Check the by-lines at the top.... they've been scraping pretty much everything I write at this point. It's kinda spooky. No complaints however.

This is a fantastic idea:steemit as the base layer where one writes, then send off to other platforms from there.

I've always been a bit annoyed doing it the other way, as the cheetah bot can't determine if I wrote the original or not (I like cheetah bot).

Thanks for the inspiration!

They don't scrape my steemit blog. They scrape my public blog at www.goldgoatsnguns.com and that's where I really want to drive traffic for my patreon/newsletter service.

But, ancilliary income accruing to steemit and bridging both worlds? It works.

Thanks-going to look deeper into this as well.

you've mentioned before that you don't mind as long as they give you credit and a link.

I know I'm getting old, I read your article yesterday, and didn't recognize the same article at ZH today ;>

Believe me, the benefits are great for both sides. They get great content, I get spill over traffic and a much higher Google SEO rating, since they do repackage the article a bit.

Sure ZH gets the lion's share but getting the exposure and regular readers to the blog is something I wouldn't get otherwise. You want your work disseminated as far and wide as possible.
