Steemit Review – An Honest Take After Six Months of Travel Blogging

in #steemit6 years ago (edited)

Imagine you are going on about your normal daily lives like posting a picture of what you ate for lunch on Instagram and bragging about where you're flying to for your next vacation to your Facebook friends. Now imagine, instead of wasting your time and padding your ego, you get paid for those actions. That’s exactly what Steemit, Inc., is doing with Steemit.com.

To put it bluntly from Steemit, Inc.,' own words: “Steemit has redefined social media by building a living, breathing, and growing social economy – a community where users are rewarded for sharing their voice. It’s a new kind of attention economy.”

Great post, I'm sure there are many new steemians, as well as potential new recruits that may come across steemit thanks to you writing this on your website, who could take some advice from you (or just learn some the basics thanks to the simple way you presented it).

To your comment that a new user will need to either invest in STEEM or have a friend with a lot of SP, it is worth pointing out that community projects such as @steemSTEM, @ocd @curie, etc, do great work at rewarding quality content. However, we certainly need many more such groups, covering different topics, if we want to achieve a better correlation between quality and effort on one side and rewards and visibility on the other.

And finally, thanks for mentioning SteemPress! I hope we can continue to provide creators like yourself with a useful product while lowering some the of the barriers you rightly mention for other bloggers to come onboard as well.

Thank you! If only more established bloggerss know about your plugin. I'm sure most of them are turned off from Steemit because they believe it will take more work - which really isn't the case with Steempress!

Beautiful .. well done
This is for those who want to know what a real travel pleasure is
Thank you for sharing with us your adventure‏..

Steemit really redefined the platform of social media and blogging. We engaged in social media for a long time without any income generating benefit (at least most of us) until steemit came unto our attention and here we are now, we are earning while enjoying interacting with our fellow steemians and mind you, there are hundreds if not thousand that join the steemit wagon plus the numerous meetups all over the globe.

I hope and wish for its continued growth :)

4 - There are corruption and issues but there's also development ongoing to mitigate these issues.

What development, if I may ask?

This is a very awesome guide :) Keep adding value to the platform

This was really well written.

I've been using Steemit for about two months now. I started off using voting bots (and am glad I did) but have reverted to just growing organically.

I think Steemit is a wonderful platform and it has definitely benefited me. While it has it's flaws, it is providing sustainable income options for MANY people. While I can't currently live off my Steemit income, it is growing. One day I might be able to support myself from Steemit alone!

Vote bots are useful on the occasional use to get some exposure you wouldn't get otherwise. I wish that weren't the case...

thanks for the information brother

It's an amazing the post we have a lot to learn about steemit, I am new here so I need time to grow up in the platform, If can any give me a hand I gladly accept.

Keep at it, you got my upvote whatever it's worth :)

May be the best post I have read about Steemit.
Why not

  • Cancel the possibility of upvoting own content
  • Increase power of minnows and decrease power of whales, orcas
  • Cancel the possibility to upvote content of a determined user more than once a day (or week?)
  • Other measures to prevent "circle jerking"
  • Make reward and voting system more simple, the four "currencies" economy (steem, steem power, steem dollars and vests) is a disaster. In any other ecosystem would be. (+BTC + local currency=six)

or are developers already working on this? How they want to stop abuse of the reward pool?

hey @adonisabril, this was actually a really, really informative post, thank you! And congrats for making it that far in such a short time! I have a daily wordpress blog by myself with a couple thousand followers and you've mentioned Steempress a few times. Are there no google issues with "duplicate content" so that google downgrades the SEO rating of your blog? As it seems that Steempress copies the content from your site?

thanks again!
Sam

No, not that I know of. Google doesn't really care about duplicate content as long as it knows which one is the original source :)

yep, i just checked in with the creators of the plugin. All good! thanks man! Google also checks the source of where the content had been published first... So all good if your post appears first on your blog.
have a good week!
