RE: Deceptively Optimistic Self-Shilling Posts Hurt Steemit

in #steemit7 years ago

My advice is to keep writing good posts and try to contributed into solving these problems by getting together with like minded people. Steemit right now is a risky investment when it comes to someone's time. If you have been on facebook and instead you spend the same time here then it is fine. If not, I would advice you to tone it down until the platform solves some fundamental issues. Steemit is not a job substitute.

Thank you for that interesting advice and I will definitely keep it in mind as I am here. I do use fb for traffic a lot and have stopped about 80% of that work for now.

Which of the fundamental issues do you think are most critical for me to pay attention to or that need to be solved to make this a good place to be?

Focus on comments. They create a good following which will get you attention in your posts. If I was starting just now I would make a post twice a week and spend 2 hours everyday on commenting.

That makes me happy to hear. The majority of my time is on commenting and I will definitely continue. It's the only way I learn or connect with new people or the people I already know who are here.

The posts can be very eye opening even if they take a lot of effort to comprehend. My posts definitely sink like a stone - but you can find them on google which makes me happy. I got traffic to you tube as well. These results are what keeps me going here.

@fitinfun, I'm trying to do the same thing you are, but much more tersely.

lol - It's hard to beat me on verbose. I never talk in person though :)

I'm at the bottom of the thread!!! Woo hoo. It's cozy down here :)

Just 2 hours? And how many realy meaning coments can be done? I dont think more then 5-10 , as far you should read the post and think it over.

If you have been on facebook and instead you spend the same time here then it is fine.

That's exactly what I've been doing tbh, allocated probably 20% of my fb time to this place, nothing to lose...nd 100% agree that spending huge amounts of time is as risky an investment as buyint thousands of steem!

CHAIN GANG WE EVERYWHERE!
