RE: 13 tips for those in Steem for the Long Haul.

in #steemit6 years ago
  1. Never power down. Ever.
  2. Try to post every day. Sure, life might get in the way to prevent that here and there, but try.
  3. For noobs in particular but, generally everyone else too, comment, comment, comment. And not just “Nice post, bro”, put some effort into it.
  4. Post with a variety of apps. Steemit itself is just an app. Try @zappl or @dlike or some app that just got introduced.
  5. Maybe not as a plankton, but at least as a minnow, start doing some delegating.

I’m serious about never powering down. If the Steem blockchain does as well as I think it might, someone who’s been able to build up a largish (no clue how to quantify that) amount of SP might be able to have a significant income stream.

Agree! I second the idea of "Never Power Down" if you have to take liquid so be it, but if you can convert that also while the account is young.

yeah powering down means draining the value out of your account. if the idea is to invest, then invest! now if you're a whale during a bull run and you have 500,000 dollars worth of steem, then powering down a thousand bucks a week to pay for expenses might make sense.

but yeah... you gotta power up, power power up!

Nice comment bro :)

I'm powering down this week - really! - but don't panic it's just a tactical plan to move some Steem Power around.
I'm actually investing more time in Steem at the moment, because I figure those of us that have a crack at it when things are down, could end up looking better once it's up.

@Preparedwombat,
Why should I delegate? what is the advantage? I've delegated to dmania, just because it's a fun and silly distraction from my day... I don't quite understand how delegating helps except that dmania pays out some rewards to me from time to time. Can you explain how this works?
