RE: DO RESTEEMING AND MENTIONING actually work well? Are those efficient ways of building reach and exposure on Steemit?

Hello @crypto.piort

Particularly ceo to do resteem is not very beneficial, when I started I used a lot of resteem bots, however with time I realized that there was no difference in the visualization of my publication if I compared the before and after using the resteem bots .
It will probably turn out when someone of great reputation does, but nevertheless it is not the big difference.
You use a method, send memos, it is quite effective, in my opinion, but that is linked to your vocation to help others, and in turn this makes you want to help, because you know that your work is to benefit of many, not only personal.
Mention in publications, sometimes it can be useful, but it is something specific for some people, so it is not much that you attract only for that tactic.

And finally, yes, you need a notification system in steemit, which is efficient, only the applications that work with the blockchain or the steem server do.

I particularly have a week using the Partiko app, and it has a very good notification system.
