RE: Thoughts on the Current Experiment and Potential Strategies
You really nailed it, @sykochica! Yes, go out and engage! not just post and run. But remember to engage with dolphins now, not whales! No! just kidding! If you target at someone specific, probably you won't get upvoted as expected. Be strategical. No! Again, Just kidding!
Do not engage just for the money, if you do you'll probably be disappointed and next time it will be you complaining out loud. We should view it this way - do what we, users in a social media site, should - engage, and on average everyone doing so will be encouraged more for doing so. Authors stay for engagement as well as some encouraging rewards, and readers stay for engaging authors and fellow readers.... how nice! :)
Exactly! :D
It's crazy...motivate people to be social on a social site! Lol.
But yea, the goal really is getting connected to people. When you're honestly liked and/or appreciated, they'll go out of their way to support you financially and/or through comments. If you just beg, they may play along for a while with diminishing returns.
Imagine Facebook if nobody wrote messages, instead only clicking the like button. (or that STUPID poke button, lol)
Hey hey, if you agree, why don't you upvote each others' comments. I don't want to be the first voter.
Hehe, I'm getting there. Just reading and responding first, then I scroll back through and upvote. Their incoming. :)
poking is fun. people like to act stupid. lol
