RE: "Dear Dawne" Live Today! - Gaining Visibility Requires Increasing Exposure
Hey @brayias, first thank you for coming here and giving such a thoughtful comment! It is important to express yourself more than anything here on steemit. I understand your points about voting and that is something that we all go through. I'm glad you are giving it consideration because it is how you will learn what works best for you!
The things you will weigh as you continue to grow here on steemit, is how you plan on growing and what methods will you use. Most people don't plan, they just do a little of everything. You seem like a planner, so I will be glad to assist you with ideas.
To give you the higher view and break it down broadly, you can grow by maiximizing every available tool for yourself to use (which there are many more productive ways that just upvoting yourself)... or you can grow by growing your network of friends and followers and helping them to grow with you. (this way looks at the deepness and wideness of the relationships as a measuring stick for success). And of course you can do both if you are a superstar.
The reason I bring this up is that you can focus on a strategy to fit your individual style. There is no "right" way to do things, there are just many tools you can use to accomplish your goals here.
If you are interested, please let me know and I will be glad to either assist you myself if I can or point you in the right direction!
Thanks for stopping by and for making a great comment!
Hello @Davemcmcoy,
For been a planner, I am not so sure, I come prepared with a decent amount of ad-lib. I am definitely a Dreamer, dreams they can begin anywhere tho, unlike the reality where something must have a beginning. I am just taking my first steps in a dream right now. The world is changing in many ways and will change in ways we cannot foresee. Some changes are already happening as seen with Crypto and now I see with my introduction to the Steemit platform.
On my own morals, I cannot buy votes, so the use of bots to gain an advantage I avoid unless they are offered free.
I do not use other formats of blogging or Twitter at the moment and will be a while before I would begin to use. I see the advantages of but I would prefer to learn a bit more about Steemit before expanding. Within Steemit, I am not chasing followers, Well I am but not in a hurry to find a massive audience.
My strategy right now is aligning myself with people like yourself, Following you, commenting on your posts, should I have a view not expressed, possibly at times speaking in a manner of opposition to the view stated. I do not do so in a negative manner but more to show or state something which I have not observed but came to mind. @simplymike started this line of action for me inadvertently. Not all your comment I will post a reply to. some will be beyond my thinking, others, where I see an opinion from me, would not do anything for the post or opinion. I see yourself and other users I have mentioned in other posts above, as mentors to the community in a positive way. while you gain from the upvotes to your comments you all have contributed back with the sharing of your votes not to mention the obvious knowledge you share. I waffled on there a bit. Open minded people who are willing to contribute in some form are my target audience.
I want to take back the world.
Where I could use some help, is in the creation of a blog list.
I believe strongly! there is a need for greater equality and now is a pivoting point where we can begin to introduce different methods to achieve these positive goals.
A blog list to create would provide a roadmap in a sequence which I could write on and the topics could follow each other.
For this, I would have to discuss in detail with yourself or any other who might show interest in picking my brain. If you chose a platform to use with a faster communication it would make it much easier on my part at least.
This is @brayias the account is logged in and the key code thing has been painted a lovely tree :) once the software can no longer be upgraded the account will not be usable. I still use it to play poker freerolls with to try boost the Steem I can have with the winnings.
wow... @jan23com that is a comment!!! Awesome! You have several issues in there for me to address and some I don't fully understand.
First, let me say that I am thankful for the time it took you to send the message. And I am appreciative that you pay me a compliment saying that I contribute to the community.
Also I want to point out that it is perfectly fine with me for people to disagree. I don't believe in "groupthink" and I encourage all views (even more so when they are meant to be constructive!) So fire away anytime, I always like the truth as you see it!
Regarding your strategy, I am a bit unclear, but I do get the point you are not looking for gimmicks and want real interaction with real people. Did I get this right?
I know you asked my help about creating a "blog list"... I will be happy to help if I understand what you want clearly... Do you want a list of the people that I think are "real" and "create value" ie @simplymike?
You can contact me on discord at anytime at davemccoy#2479... If you aren't on discord, then let me know and I will send you an invite link. I would be thrilled to discuss your concepts deeper!
I want to take back this world too... While I understand it might not happen in my lifetime, that doesn't mean that I shouldn't do my part. The reason I originally stayed here and was my original motivation, was exactly that mission. Since I've been here though a funny thing happened, I made friends. Now I must admit that I am equally motivated to help them here as much as I was originally to change the world.
I think the last point about your account is that this is a new account for @brayias... I don't know why you switched, because I don't understand the comment about the software can no longer be upgraded. But it makes no difference to me. I make connections with people not accounts... ;)
I will either see you on discord or hopefully a reply back here for me to send you the server link.
I hope you have a fantastic day and it is great to connect to someone who is as thorough as you are! :)
