As we all know creating a post is not an easy task. Especially when one needs to do proper research on topics that are not too familiar with. And also applying proper mark downs also isn't easy. All these things take a lot of time patience and commitment to do. Therefore as a blogger or content creator I have my own experience in content creation.

Okay for me, it all depends on the type of post that I'm supposed to create. What I mean here is that. If the topic I'm supposed to write about is quite new to me, then it will probably take me a longer time to write a post than if the topic was the one that I'm very familiar with. Because I will need to do research and write down some points before i can then properly transfer it in the post I an orderly and presentable manner.

Secondly, it also depends on the number of images I chose to add in my post. Some post require the use of more images which means that iw I'll need to also visit sites that have copyright free images and select good images for the post and that will also take time.

Therefore we have seen that there are a good number of things that can influence the time for creating a single post. However, for an average post , a normal post with basic markdowns and consedering that the topic is familiar, I can take 30 to 40minutes to create the post.

Well, this is a very important question and I will say that In terms of data it all depends on the heaviness of the pictures used or maybe if I use a video or a gif images it will also consume more data.

So the more i upload heavy files that's the more data I will consume for making a single post. But for an average post with atleast one photo and basic mark downs. It think 50 Megabytes will do.

Honestly this is a very important question, and every blogger always hopes for a huge pay off when they create a post. And a post should pay you based on the quality of the post and the knowledge found in it.

For me I think that my post should be paid based on the value it brings to the steemit body. And also I feel that a post should be paid not less than $5. This is just a proposal. However we only receive support based on how valuable the curators feel our post is. So it all depends on them at the end of the day.

Yes, there are writing methods that I appreciate so much that makes one's text looks more appealing to readers. I appreciate when a blogger justifies the text. I appreciate when a blogger makes his/her headings bold and I possible red. To differentiate it from the rest of the normal writing.

I appreciate when photos and well sourced and free from copy right. Not every photo in the internet is allowed to be used by bloggers. So I appreciate when a blogger knows where to get photos and when he/she careful give the right source of the photo.

Okay, generally I feel that the steemit space is a great space for learning and growing. I have grown a lot in my knowledge and skills just by reading quality blogs from other content creator and also it pushes me to do more research and as a result I gain great knowledge on so many things in life.

Yes I feel like the steemit Platform is a space that accommodates every one. It's not a space that is selective. It is opened for everyone and that is so beautiful. I sincerely want to thank the entire administration of the steemit team for this privilege they have given us all to be Creative.

Thank you for reading.

I invite @estem @rezvan @max-pro @napito
