Hahah you posted this at the right time. In my first week, I had someone upvote my posts and each one was at like $2.60. I was happy because I could see immediate results. Now, things have definitely slowed down and I have to figure out how to get my posts out there to a greater audience.
Thanks for creating the STEEMITREBELS group. I think it is helping me get some traction. It is also good to learn strategies that increase the likelihood of interaction. I find that asking questions gets more people talking then just posting one of your blog posts. Live and learn!
Those are still some pretty impressive numbers! What do you do to get to 100+ followers? How many posts do you publish per week? Curious for some insight :)
Hey @poehah while I don't think it's a huge advantage, comming from Youtube and having a decent size following over there definately helps. Some of my Youtube audience is starting to follow me over here and support me.
Also, it's actually a couple Youtubers who got me on here @brianphobos and @vogeltron1 among a couple other guys. Brian who's a bit more established on here has shown me some love which I'm sure has gone a long way so just to be upfront my having a background on Youtube probably has helped me to a large extent.
That said I've been pretty consistant about posting everyday, usually a couple times a day. My first few days on here I went really heavy. I try to spread a lot of love with votes, try to comment on a lot of peopel's stuff and I try to catch new people on their introduction posts and welcome them to the platform.
While I do think there's probably something to be said for learning the culture of this platform and what types of content does best and how to best format posts I think probably the best thing is just grinding it out being consistant. Maybe set a goal of minimum 1 piece of content created on here per day and comment on min 5 other peoples posts. If you do that day in and day out for say 30 days I gurantee you you'll have some results.
Thanks for taking the time to reply! Really appreciate it! I guess I'll have to step up my game :-). It's just demotivating when you put hours of work in a post and you get $0.50 in return.
I definately feel you there but it's not unique to Steemit. When I started my Youtube channel I would put in tons of time to have 6 people watch my videos and earn nothing. I did this for months and month and month and then one day all the sudden one of my videos went moderately viral next thign I know I have 10k subs, then 20k, now closing in on 60k.
Same thing with Instagram, same thing with starting an eBay store or rolling out an Amazon product. If you're not willing to put in say minimum 3 months with nothing to show for it dont' get started in the first place because you'll burn out.
Make a commitment to spend at least the next 90 days grinding every day and keep doing it even with 0 results. You will wind up finding a community or being noticed by someone powerful on here and you will be rewarded for it.
Hello mate thankx so much for your videos on youtube you are help me to understand a lot of model of buisness and strategies about making money online i wish to follow me 😀😀
Hey mate, I just created an account :-) Will be doing some German content (It's me Thomas Brandon Kovacs from Youtube aka Sparkojote)

Good post! Thanks for the encouragement. I've been on for less than a week, but I'm a patient sort of guy. Everything takes time. No matter what platform you're on or project. Even those with millions have a schedule to deal with. You're doing pretty good...keep it up!
Personally I'm rolling all mine into Steem power. While i havn't personally transfered into to fiat yet you would send it from your Steem wallet on Steemit to my steem wallet on Bittrex. I would then swap the steem for btc, then move the btc over to coinbase and then cash out to my bank account.
Great job! I'm loving Steemit so far. It's been really fun interacting with new people. And I'm constantly learning what a poor speller I am! LOL The spell checker is sometimes stumped! I swear I did go to college. : )
Keep plugging along bro ! Slow and steady wins the race ! Thanks for all the amazing YouTube videos that you make !
Nothing happens over night. I gave up for a while but now I am back and ready to go.
Patience is not the ability to wait but the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting

You're definitely right. Nothing comes out of thin air, we have to work hard, fail, fail again and then perhaps succeed ^^
Nice! Amazing content + time :)
Agree! Good things take time.
Hello mate thankx so much for your videos on youtube you are help me to understand a lot of model of buisness and strategies about making money online i wish to follow me 😀😀
@rulesforrebels, if steemit integrates a seamless video feature or something like LBRY, would you eventually leave youTube behind?
if a person comes on here only intending to make money its going to get old fast...just have fun with steemit

Hey buddy awesome to see you on here, yeah I remember you were asking if there's a german audience.
Nice post and great achievements already! I also recently joined and love the community here :-) I am sure I am going to stay!

thats pretty good for only a couple of weeks lol. How do you convert the steem into real money?
Personally I'm rolling all mine into Steem power. While i havn't personally transfered into to fiat yet you would send it from your Steem wallet on Steemit to my steem wallet on Bittrex. I would then swap the steem for btc, then move the btc over to coinbase and then cash out to my bank account.

Great words to apply to the real world...Resteemit!
