RE: Experiences and Advice After First Month on Steemit
Some good start up advice there. It's also worth noting that you don't have to be a content creator to make steem. Content consumers (or curators) can also make almost as much as creators if they comment and vote. In fact being a creator generates a very tiny income until you have established yourself. Curation is the best way to build SP in my opinion.
You are better at the curation side than I am then, @unclehermit. I comment and upvote lots of posts, but it’s only a trickle compared to authoring in my experience.
I guess it's a balance isn't it. Rightly or wrongly I do self upvote while I'm building steem power but I try to give votes out too. If I'm too busy to read content I won't let my steem power go to waste so I'll do some self voting. I notice that your posts do quite well, much better than mine, so you are clearly doing something right. How do you find all the resteeming works for you? I only resteem occasionally.
Hmmm... well the way I see it my vote isn’t worth much right now so I don’t worry about it. I like to resteem posts that I enjoy and I think others would enjoy. I would reconsider once my vote is worth more tho.
