What matters most - Payout or Content?
Hello everyone
According to the steemit user @penguinpablo, an average 4,000+ new users are joining this platform. Last day, the count was 20,000+. This says that steemit is growing at the fastest pace ever. I welcome every new user and hope so that they will get success on this platform, but as a good wisher, I would like to add few things and tips that can be really helpful to newbies. The biggest question that I am going to address in this post is very important as this decides that whether you are taking steemit as a social media or as a JOB based site. Steemit pays everyone and that's what makes it different from other existing social media sites.

Wrong things that Newbies are doing...
Rush
- First thing that every new user must do is to read the guideline of steemit, reading guideline will give you the proper idea of WHAT THE HELL STEEMIT IS?
- Rule 1 - Never ever do rush! Rushing on this platform will derail you from this. Instead of rushing, you must have a look on high reputed users and learn the way to do things right.

Attention Seeker
- There are various way of grabbing the readers attention. You can write the good and detailed post that is full of information and experiences.
- Never write something that hurts anyone sentiments. You may get attention but you will end up losing reputation level.
- Never spam the comment section of any one's post instead, give valuable feedback or ask the questions.
Payouts
- Money is the hardest thing that you can ignore in this world. When you are starting with this platform, do not think for Money or payouts for at least 2-3 months.
- Instead of focusing on payouts, Focus on your level of interaction with this platform.

- Never stick to a single topic! Writing about same things that already exist on this platform reduces your chances of grabbing attention.
Plagiarism
- Copying content from the internet and posting it os steemit is not at all a good practice.
- Always give credits to the Original Authors.
- Express yourself instead of copying, who knows that your words can spin a magic around steemit and get you good audience.
