RE: BB #3: Why many people struggle on steemit? 😡
The reasons for failure are sometimes obvious:
People (mostly from poor countries - not trying to be racist here) think they can make big money by just posting anything --> a lot of really poor posts!
"Vore for Vote" post - or even worse: You post an long article with 1000+words and pictures --> 30 seconds after publishing "Great post, thx for sharing - please upvote and follow me". I have to lol so hard when I see something like that. I also share links of my posts f.e.. BUT only in posts related to mine and after I have read the post and understood it. And I go into detail and ask things I really want to know. I just share with people who I think post similar stuff than me.
Those are the two main errors I see. But there are many more ;)
Totally agree with the second point.
Follow for follow is a turn off.
I never follow the 'follow beggers'.
Your first point is an interesting observation and seems quite possible.
Pity if that's true.
Thank you for stopping by @theaustrianguy 🍻
Unfortunately I do not think that the first point ever will stop - And I can understand it. If I would sit in a poor country and see people making hundreds of dollars for a post - I would try verything as well ;)
