RE: Announcing the Steem $1000 quality post 30-day challenge
You might want to include this caveat, since our original conversation had to do with content providers getting paid, just for providing content: participants can never have used upvote bots. Then there's this thing about getting paid "just for posting your content," or "just bring your blog over to steemit." Other than a few who are already making a full-time living with their vlog or blog, and already have a following, is it possible to make $1000 per month without also spending a lot of time networking?
Hi @kirbyhopper - You make a good point. However, I don't want to disqualify people that have used upvote bots in the past. If someone used upvote bots, and they are now "going straight" I think that should be fine! I also think your point about networking is well-made. Yes, networking is vital, and I consider that totally legit way of getting to that $1000 mark!
Understood re: disqualifying. It would be cool though if maybe for the next month do one in which only people who have not used bots can participate, so as to shed some light on our discussion about whether it's even possible for a content provider to make much without ever using bots, and I don't mean big names who already have a following coming to this platform or people who only talk about cryptocurrency.
