RE: I'm Still Not Rich From Steemit...
Nice poem, you seem to be earning quite a nice second income to me....
Have you ever analysed how yer earnings are related to which upvotes. My last post has around 90 votes , and the projected payout is $145 ( I know this will go down immediately before payout!)
Using steemitnow I calculated that just 4 people account for around $143 of this, you were one of the other 80 odd, and I must say thanks for the $0.03 - most appreciated!
My humble advice for getting rich on Steemit is:
- Find yerself a Tardis, go back in time and become an even 'earlier adopter'.
- Find yourself a Steem Power rich Whale clique and write for them, stuff everyone else.
- Get prettier.
- Write inward looking posts about the Steemit bubble, rather than about anything beyond, those posts seem to do well.
Alternatively just don't take it too seriously, experiment, hope for the odd hit and enjoy the second income!
Also, don't give up the day job!
Will upvote yr poem once my VP's regenerated.
Thanks for the in depth comment man. Super insightful and hilarious too.
I use vote bidding bots to keep investing in the platform. (@booster, @bellyrub, @lovejuice, @nettybot, etc.) So while it may look like a lot, much of it is my own. I do this to reward the curators of my work instead of just buying and powering up STEEM. I have put around $7k into the platform and a lot of that in the form of gifts. I really like the platform even with all its quirks and issues. As I'm sure you gleaned, this post was satire, I don't actually expect to get rich here, lol. I see it first and foremost as a place to give.
Could I eventually break even on my investment? I hope to, haha! But what Steemit has given me is much bigger than all of that. I've met awesome people, learned tons of new things & connected to different cultures, and finally got my creative "mojo" back. In fact, I'm about to get a low paying grunt work job just to fund buying more STEEM. LOL
The advice you gave on getting rich is SPOT ON. Since it's not actually my primary goal, I dabble a bit in the Steemit inner circle posts (like this one) but 95% of my posts are original poetry, philosophy, spoken word pieces, esoteric / motivational / inspirational writings.
Thanks again for the well-thought out reply. Have an awesome day, and congrats on your @curie -discovered piece!
Cheers for the nice in-depth reply, I actually quite enjoy the commenting/ curating side of Steem, and as you say, it's a quirky old place fer sure! I'll check out the bidding bots... although TBH I registered with Steemian and it just totally lost me!
