I think during the past 1.5 years on steemit I've been on the trending page 10 times in total.
It's not the ultimate / the one and only leveling board here.
Yes, I check the trending page by myself every morning, because it's a nice indicator on trends, news, price situation etc. However, it's not that you can only become a successfull blogger on steemit if you're constantly on a top 10 payout position.
Imagine the following real life situation:
The company of your dreams is hiring a new employee. You want to get on that position no matter how. What do you do? Obviously you try to get a way in, a helping hand, someone who opens the door for you, a recommendation,... That's how life / business works - as in real life so on steemit.
You may be a nerd, but if you don't communicate, network, engage, connect on this platform, you're lost :-) It's a 'social network' after all...
Yes, now we are talking lol. Engagements are important. You can't be antisocial in a social network. It's like someone in a wrong place. Let me continue steeming, till the "helping hand" comes like you said.
That's the spirit :-)
You've got a new follower now by the way
Wow, it's not everyday someone amazing comes by. Thanks :)
Haha, you've got some great content to offer, so I had to...:-)) You're welcome! I have you thank you for the great convo here.
Wow.. thank me? I should be thanking you. I enjoyed texting you too, I have learnt a thing or two from what you said. I should be saying goodnight. It's past 12 am here, bye :)
