How To Go Viral On Steemit!

1. Don't just copy and paste stuff

Make sure your article is something new and innovative. Don't expect an article to go viral if it's simply a copy of an existing one that has previously gone viral once.

2. Make content that is valuable to others

Your content must be valuable to others. You can't please everyone but the audience you're targeting must find your content valuable, otherwise they won't share it.

3. Make sure your tags target the proper audience

The tags you choose for article are the major deciding factor in targeting a particular audience. Most readers filter their dashboard with the tags they're interested in.

4. Choose a relevant and eye-catching feature-photo

The first picture in your article is going to be the photo that steemit uses to feature your article. Make sure it's relevant and eye-catching.

5. Choose a relevant and attention-grabbing title

The title of your article is perhaps the second eye-catching factor in the reader's news feed. Make sure it's not only relevant, but also attention-grabbing.

6. Avoid jargons and archaic vocabularies

Avoid old-fashioned words. Most readers are not familiar with archaic words and would soon lose interest in your article if you don't use plain words

7. Tidy your article up with a good format

Make sure the format of your article is pleasing to the eye. Avoid big paragraphs and use the markdown styling guide to format things like headers, quotes, etc.

8. Read and revise before you post

Once you're finished writing, read and revise your article before you post it. Make sure there are no spelling mistakes or punctuation errors.
