10 Quick Tips For Posting On Steemit Like A Pro

in #steemit6 years ago

Steemit is a great platform with lots of potential in the future. Why hasn’t it gotten mass adoption yet? Well, the first thing I noticed when I attempted my first post is it seemed kind of hard. Yes, the site itself seemed a little difficult to navigate and understand. But it seemed like I was very limited when posting on steemit. That’s because knowing a little html goes a long way.
I’m still learning how to make my posts better on steemit. But there’s no sense in waiting until I’ve mastered it before making a post to show you some of the things I’ve learned so far.

How To Add Links On Steemit

Links are essential to a nice blog post. But while it’s easy to add links to posts on most blogging platforms, it’s not easy on steemit. Here’s how you do it: put brackets around the word you want to be the hyperlink text [like this]. They put the link of the url to wherever you’re linking to in internet land, with parenthesis around the url. How To Add Media To Your Posts On Steemit

Media gives an image to a post, which helps your post make a bigger impact and makes it more memorable. Images help us understand the text better, and makes us perceive a post as more credible and of higher value. Of course, try to make your images as helpful and relevant as possible.

The first image in your post is used as your thumbnail when others see your post in their feed. So make sure to choose your first image wisely. Obvisouly, choose the best image you can. Choose one that will make people click on your post. If you have a video in your post before an image, the thumbnail for the video will be the image used as the thumbnail for your post.

You can easily add images or video to your steemit posts. Just drag and drop images on to your post. Make sure you have rights to the images you use, or at least have permission to use them. Depending on the licensing agreement, you may or may not have to give credit to whose image it is.
