Steemit growth experiment day 2 - We're up and running folks!
Hello again Steemit universe and all Steemian inhabitants, good to see you all again :)
Well I must say it was an incredible day yesterday! The experiment is officially up and running, hoorah! The response has been just awesome, I honestly didn't expect anything for my first few entries here, but the wheels are actually in motion which is super exciting.
I was able to pass along 10 100% upvotes to participants amounting to nearly $2 in total and man did it feel great. I know my SP is not whale, or dolphin even yet, and it may not seem like much in the grand scheme of things, but I feel like I was able to help at least a little bit.
I received many comments on my first post and I did my best to reply to all of the ones that weren't obviously bots (and even some that were, haha) and I wish to thank you all so much for your participation and support! I received some criticism as well as some constructive criticism, and that is great too. The point of an experiment is to learn and grow, and the point of this experiment is to learn and grow and help others grow too, so I welcome all of your feedback, whether it is positive or negative. You are all helping me steer this experiment, and I want it to be good for everyone that chooses to participate.
With that in mind, I thought I would give some updated info in this post, based on one of the comments that I received and open things up to questions and/or suggestions from you, the Steemians!
The update!
So one commentor in the first post asked if I will be focusing on users with less or more SP than myself. To answer that question I would have to say that I suppose I am focusing on users with less SP than me, since I am more able to help them grow. However in order for the experiment to grow @feedbackloop also needs support. So here's a little clarification:
Any and all Steemians are welcome to support the experiment, whether you are a plankton, minnow, dolphin or whale however at this time the manual curation part of @feedbackloop's votes will go solely to those who have less SP than I do (currently just over 1000) If you would like to support @feedbackloop's growth but would like my votes to go to users other than yourself feel free to let me know in the comments!
What do you think of this direction Steemians? Is it a good idea or a bad idea? Do you have any suggestions, criticisms, comments or would just like to participate?
Let me know, I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
So my bit of input for today is when I first read this when I woke up I wasn't sure if I should include a link again. Unfortunately I didn't get any writing down due to my currant situation. So I guess I'll hope for the random vote. fingers crossed hope everyone is having a wonderful day! ❤️
I think it's a great idea, and I appreciated the vote today! Resteeming your post every day will get a bit old and tedious. That's my only concern is that 100s of people won't want to be doing that, necessarily. Curious to hear other thoughts.
Like others, I think the resteem daily will become tedious, and slow things down, but at the start of the experiment (where we are currently) I think it's necessary to get the word out.
Maybe once you reach future levels, dropping it to once a week, or even all together maybe useful.
Thanks for adding value to steemit-keep it up
I do like the change of manually curating accounts with less SP. These are the accounts that will benefit the most from your vote. While someone's account with higher SP may not necessarily have great content, it's likely the account has built a following of some sort.
I still think accounts with Higher SP should upvote this account If they believe in the cause. I myself will keep checking in from time to time because like I said yesterday I love manual curation. I'm still trying to get better at it myself, but I do like the idea of it.
Keep it up and I look forward to seeing this account do great things.
Nice Experiment, here is my entry, but it is written in German language

You should really consider to remove the resteem part of this Experiment asap, it keeps more people away as it brings, but this only my opinion.
Ok - I'm in. I always enjoy the creativity of entrepreneurs on here & anything which rewards those with less is worth encouraging.
