RE: MY #1 SECRET FOR SUCCESS ON STEEMIT IN 2018!
One thing is however also something one should not forget - the numbers we see on the rewards page very often do not represent the actual profit as upvote bots play a huge role to reach these levels very often.
Persistence plus using multiple upvote bots on every post you publish should actually be what you should be saying :P
Probably. And thank you for pointing that out @robinhaney. That leads to another question: Can anyone succeed on good content alone? Sure, we can say, "Bring your blog to this platform and get paid," but that makes it sound easy. It's just a hook, without giving the full story. Bait and switch. Deception, IOW, albeit unintentionally.
But it doesn't have to be that way. We could say these things up front: "It takes a lot of work, it takes persistence, and you need to invest in upvote bots. And you actually have to have content that someone on here is interested in." But do we? People go weeks and even months before they hear this...
A person can still be paid, little by little, just by establishing a network and producing content. No bot is necessary.
Though having said that, I'd sure be interested to know of someone on #steemit who is "just an author", pulling in even $1000 monthly (or a cash value in their account that would allow him or her to pull that much out without sucking his account dry) - and writing about nothing but crypto or steemit doesn't count :) Do you know of any?
Hi @kirbyhopper - Are you talking $1000 (USD) monthly? I think that is a pretty low target for a theoretical writer or content producer that is doing it full time. If you do a quality post every day, and build up an audience, that would work out to be $33USD per day through clicks and upvotes. Heck, I'm pretty sure I could do that. (Do I want to do that job every day? Not really at this time, but it's an available path.)
Now is it possible to make a full-time middle class career out of it? Now we're talking a pretty steep climb. However, there are some content producers that make a pretty good living at it. I'm thinking about the wonder-vloggers with a following like David Pakman. It's a rare beast, but not a unicorn.
Maybe we can set up a "30-day content challenge", you and me... To see if either of us (or both) could produce $1000 worth of content (writing, video, photography, whatever) on Steem in 1 month with no upvote bots. Would you be up for that? :-D
Nah because I plan to use upvote bots starting Feb. 1 :) And besides, my blog posts have limited appeal to this audience so I'm going to have to shift gears and talk about something more relevant, like building an online community.
OK, no problem. I might do it, anyway. Multimedia - blog post plus performance. :-D
My car just died today and I could use a little extra dough. :-(
hahahhha
That is true, but ultimately few people with quality content are going to be satisfied with that.
I have succeeded on good content alone for sure - it just can be a bit harder now more than ever with more people joining and for the early people who haven’t invested lots
@joeparys I find your attitude so disrespectful :)) you don't even reply to my comments...I am so disappointed, I though you were different! Maybe next time you should not brag with your so called"awesome giveways", because none of the participants received any steem/sbd. I will stop following & bothering you!
I love crypto
