The irony is, being a consistent blogger I may go check out this Patreon platform you mention. Never heard of it but sounds like it may be a value add for me....I know kinda of the opposite result of what your post is trying to accomplish...LOL.
I do love your general idea. There's got to be somehow we can draw fiat into steem from readers.
Whoops! :)
I know a thing or two or too many about content monetization online. Worked in the field a couple of years back. Patreon is amazing for musicians and video art creators with a dedicated following.
I've written for a couple financial websites and do have other outlets I could pursue but with my radio show on MSPWaves and my consistent posting on steemit the past year.....I'm too entrenched to let it go. If anything I would post in multiple places in addition to steemit.
Steemit sometimes feels like the equivalent of having a bad girlfriend though...lol.
Steemit, my needy yet abusive boyfriend. Yeah, I feel you. :)
