RE: Rainy Day Vlog - Upvote Bot's, SBD on the Rise and Smart Media Tokens (SMT)

in #steemit7 years ago

For me I like to use the bots to upvote others just as much if not even more than I do myself. I think sharing the wealth is a big part of the steemit community.

This is awesome that you do that but I'll give you my take on being a relative newbie and trying to find my way on the platform.

Finding 'whales or dolphins' to upvote my content has been tough. There are some legit people upvoting my content and I'm very much appreciative, but you hit the nail on the head...The sharing of wealth on Steemit is why I believe so much in this platform.

So I use the upvote bots to get on the radars of others....Hopefully people with influence see that I'm not only trying but also willing to invest in my content.

And paying it forward is so important as well.

I'm too new to say if it's fair or not...But I use the bots for 'promotion' only and hopefully people find value in what I create :)

Thanks for this post and video and more importantly giving us minnows some hope that experienced Steemians like yourself are still out there supporting good content and newer members!

Yea it was hard when I first came on steemit. I got .76 cents for a post and I saw this chick get $20,000 for a makeup tutorial. Made me believe that I could not find a "home" here. I didn't even use the platform until 8 months after my initial post. Even then my stuff was pretty low.

For me hip-hop is what keeps me using this site. Plus if you bring people that you know then you all can share and talk about the same stuff. I'm at the point where I might take small breaks just to center myself.

I would say keep at it. Thanks for the comment.

Nice nice. Yeah I'm sure a lot of people come on and see such low upvotes they might get discouraged.

That's a good point too, keeping your audience engaged with like minded posts. Might have to check out the hip hop stuff on Steemit...I'm so old, I don't even know what's hot right now...

But I see you are from DC....Do you remember Questionmark Asylum?

lol Yeah I'm that old...

😂😂 Yea I'm an old head too. I just feel young lol.

good replay
