RE: SHITPOST YOUR WAY TO SUCCESS 🥇NEW Steemit-Exclusive Series • Lesson No. 1 • Letting go of quality for profit
Yeah I have noticed this. Been on here one month so far and am slowly realizing that for the most part, any post that I’m truly proud of does fairly poor. While I see plenty of folks post nonsense and get rewarded to the extreme. A bit broken it seems.
The challenge I’m having is the community I’m involved with here for the most part is fairly small. Loyal but not large. I’m thinking I have to expand my horizons a bit in my writings to grow here so I’m working on that but man...it’s definitely a grind here.
No doubt, it is a grind if you travel the path less traveled' / creating original content and focusing on quality. I've been on Steemit for about 321 days, but it took me about one week to see the blatant disconnect from reality. I saw many speak about "quality is key" and that top-quality posts earn more than low-quality posts. Unfortunately, that is pretty easier to identify as nonsense after a glance through the feeds.
The best advice that I can give is to not waiver in your efforts, but apply them in ways that make it fun (at least). Have fun, focus on quality, and networking with fellow users is absolutely key. Just like you are doing here! We have to stick together because the unfortunate truth is that the 'real-deal-shitposters' sure as hell do!
Of the 177 posts that I have made on Steemit, 99.9% are entirely original content from words to media. I created my own series, initiatives, and articles entirely from scratch - many of them did piss-poor. After putting hundreds of hours into these works and getting nowhere - I decided to support myself if nobody else would. That sucks, but not enough to make me quit. It'll take more than a few ass-backwards fools to drive me away.. 😂
I'll add you to my @grow-bot list and hopefully, the tiny bit of support I can offer will add up for you, my friend. Thanks for dropping by @blewitt.
@grow-pro Well your honest and sincere take on this earned you a new follower in myself. Also the fact that I think you are doing things the right way. I hope that they can fix and repair the glaring problems here. I love the idea behind this and those in the community that are doing what you are and what I feel I am doing or at least aiming to do...these individuals are what’s making this a place I’m proud to be dabbling in. That’s very kind of you brother. Looking forward to more of what ya have to say...especially having two kids and being self employed as I am. Lol
