Their own Statistics and Tactics


Hi, I'm Tonesquare

I've just come here to introduce my artworks

and It's been 4 weeks since i first came here!
Time files so fast, it feels like just 4 days past from beginning!

Well, Let's see what i've done in Steemit

351 followers & 60 reputation score

Average upvoting per posting is 140
Average payout of the latest 7 postings is $335

I want to share some tips about Steemit marketing
Steemit is the land of opportunity!

Make them click FIRST


No matter how good you wrote it ,
If you can not attract a click, there is no use!

Well, Let's think of your article as a point of view in your timeline.


What is the first thing that comes to your eyes?

It's a thumbnail image!

If the payout comes first, put everything down for a while.
I recommend you to take a rest :)

When the contents are basically in the same size
Images - native language - numbers - foreign language
This is the order our brains recognize

In other words, If you don't get a glance on the thumbnail image
Poor chance to read the title.
The preview of the content should only be read through these two factors.


Thumbnail images are small,
It's a good idea to set it to be relevant and well-visible

Make it easy to read


All marketing starts with considering the clients' situation
Let's think about when and how you do Steemit.

When you take a break during school or work
or While on the go, you'll take your smartphone out and watch it for a while
After the hard day, we will check out new articles after returning home!

One thing they have in common is that they don't have any time or energy
to read your hard-to-read postings!!

The length of the article does not matter

All you have to do is

Add a new title when the topic has changed
Change the line at the resting place when you actually talk
Tie them together
Put some visual-aids to help understand

Just recommend following


Followers are important resources that has two functions

First, as you know "Upvoting"
Second, enlarge the reach of your postings by Re-steem



Of course, someone who don't want to follow you
will not eventually follow you.

Even those who have enjoyed your posting
just go directly to reply or upvote

and It's hard to think " Let's follow him! "

For these guys, we can say
" Mr? I guess you forgot something? "


Other tips


Use tags properly
People don't read article aimed to specific nation even if they translate
Excessive image insertion is not good
Good to post between 7~8 pm when people turn on your computer after you come home

And finally

I wish your posting is exposed in the top of trending section
with your full-potential postings at least once!

Hope you enjoy this
and follow me if you like :)

Hey, tonesquare, thanks for the detailed post! Can you please help me in actually getting traffic to my posts? My first 2 articles were visited by like 12 people and the last one had a catchy title. How do i get people to even see my headline, is it by following everyone?

Your passion and professionialism to some specific topic is the most important factor to get traffic. Be prepared and if you get ready then just post it between 7-8 pm with your well-polished post in your local community :)))

This is amazing. Loved it. Thankyou so much. @tonesquare

Hope this posting helpful :)) tnx

How do you manage to create successful posts and a following in two languages? I thought foreign language posts would disturb the followers. Looks like I am wrong?

I usually write in both language in my artwork posting. but heavy information posting like this needs lots of localizing of contents. So, I repost it in English ver. :)))

Some good classic marketing tips here. It always starts with an image.

YEahhh right You know something! Classic is always right :)))

Thumbnail is first wchich eyes see - good thumbnail is 60% success

Yes even the contents of the posting sucks :/

its so much informative tutorial , so much nice and helping

I wish this helps newbs!! tnx

Very helpful. Take the time to make a great post worth reading. Got it!

Yes you must take lots of time to polish your post. Great!

How to gain reputation points?
As I found out the post that are highly up-voted is those with high reputation.
Thanks for answering.

I don't know the exact fomula of this reputation going. but It depends on how many postings,replies,and up-voted :))

Excellent post. It never hurts to test out and try new strategies. Especially on a newly discovered social media platform.

Upvoted, re-steemed, and followed.

Oh I really appreciate if you do that for me. Tnx! It's just simple strategy isn't it?

Very good tips. You must have done something right to be so successful in your first month.

Yeah i think so. But all i want to do is just introduce my artwork! tnx :)

You are welcome

Thanks! Now I need to find out how to add a thumbnail to my first posting which I keep tweaking. This all so new and exciting to me. I'm like a kid in a candy store not knowing which way to go first. I better read the tutorials AGAIN. Lol.
