RE: Steem DApp: Dlike Having IEO With Token Sale On IDCM Korea
I have been using @dlike for a few months. I find it the best way to direct people to news items that they would otherwise miss as they dont usually get an airing in the mainstream media.
This definately sounds like a great way to get more people interested in the real news of the world.
However I am told by some people that in general people on steemit dont like to follow links outside of steemit.
In my experience though it is not the case. I I receive.more upvotes on these posts than on articles that I spend time in producing.
Maybe its because my posts arnt that interesting, but hey they are about my life lol 😎.
Wish I could afford to invest in the new coin. Maybe through steemit i will have the means in future. One step at a time. 😀

Andy. Most of the articles you have posted on Dlink are on the world wide web. I have checked. Your personal posts are incredibly interesting. Look where you live and what you can tell the world about your world. It is all in the delivery. All you need is a well thought out storey, well executed and pictures to boot. People like lots of pictures. If pictures are too hard and a lot of work, pick one passion and stick with that. Find like minded folk and that is your tribe. Could be politics (ugh) or health or building a wall. Whatever. Also you need a constant back and forth flow with your followers. You have lots of followers according to your numbers, but do you really follow them?. Pick 5 or 6 or maybe 10 followers that you constantly engage in. I mean constantly. You have to be consistent. That means that you read their post and comment and upvote and they read yours. Daily or every other day or even twice a week. If they really like it they will resteem. Then you slowly build your audience. I will give you an example. When was the last time you upvoted Edith or Sallybeth or anyone else for that matter?. The reason the DLink has more upvote is mostly automatic votes. Which really means zip, since they have not read it and commented they are just upvoting for a reward at the end. Like anything else..garbage in and garbage out. Pick a passionate subject. You can write. Politics (ugh) trash, world peace, global warming, building a house, growing a tomato, making a stew. Start a contest, comment on a book or show us your village. Show us your shore lines, your rocks, things that grow and stuff that is alive. Make us want to be there. Draw the reader in. You have written numerous fine articles and I for one have watched you grow. However there is not the consistency and you let your good intentioned readers slide. If you want success pick a few good ones. Stick with them and follow them and upvote and comment until the cows come home. If you are tired of writing about Lanzarote write about other stuff you know. You know a lot. Opionins, thoughts, creations. Then write and photo some good stuff and you will notice a difference. Just saying. Signed your biggest supporter and your most loved critic. xx
Thank you as always Marion. I have read and understand all your thoughts.
And as always they are on point and very valid. I try to do what I can with my time on steemit. My own stories have stalled a little at the moment due to time and the need to go out and find new things to post. It is a small island and I have posted about all of the main attractions. Now I need to get out into the not so accessible places off the beaten track. I post news stories in order to keep a presence, and to me it is important that these stories are heard.
Its not just bots that vote them.
Again you have been my most avid suporter along with Lyndsay and now Piotr. As Steemit grows and the value of steem follows suit we have exciting times ahead. So different aproaches maybe needed to keep posts fresh and interesting to attract attention and find new friends. Variety is the spice of life 😁💜
