My 6 Month Steemit Challenge

in #life8 years ago

I have a confession.  I'm a steemit 'one hit wonder'.  

A couple weeks ago I posted my introduction post and a few minutes later I almost passed out. The post had over $1,000!  I was so excited and enthusiastic about #steemit and thought maybe I could have a chance to actually make money on this awesome, new platform.  (surviving on one income is tough, especially in Silicon Valley) 

Sadly, my second post and then my third and on and on.... didn't make much of a splash.  I was disappointed, but then I thought about it.  

In life, (especially lately) I give up when things get harder and I often lose interest quickly.  So I decided that this time, I'm not to give up that easily.  I am challenging myself to a 6 month challenge.  I'm going to post at least once a week and I'm going to spend some time each day commenting and up voting my fellow steemit contributors' content.  So here I am and you are welcome to follow me to help keep me accountable ;) Wish me luck!

Keep it up. Just remember not everone even has one hit on steemit. For example my posts dont make more than a few pennies, but i'm not here for the money, but the experience. I see that money is not free we have to earn it! :0)

im here for the money an helping people with good content

I totally agree! I hope that I build a great network along with creating good content. Thanks for reading and commenting!

Mine either, however I am creating more and more content every day :)

Nice. You made more there than everything I have ever posted combined. Congrats. Have an upvote.

Yep. In Steemit, and in general, we get what we give. It was easier to make a big splash early on. (my daughter made $1200 on a pic with her holding a hedgehog!) But now you have to contribute content and not get discouraged and quit because of low returns. Great idea to commit to 6 months. Happy Steeming :)

Good Luck :)

I am also a bit of three hit wonder (Only three of my posts have got me most of what I have now). I am tempted to also do a challenge, but not sure if I am ready for the commitment.

I thought about challenging myself to post every other day, but I decided to be easier on myself with at least a post a week. :) but you should take the challenge with me! It would be fun to see other peoples' experiences.

@thehousewife You would be surprised to see how far a few up votes and some comments can go here on STEEMIT.COM. Enjoy!
Full $teem Ahead!

If you keep that 6 month challenge tag I'll join you on that :)

One hit wonder? Imagine never having a hit? Imagine putting out over 500 posts that at-least 100 adds quality to the platform and still no hit? You wrote an article talking about how your one hit isn't enough money, and boom 500 now:) Yal women kill me and i'm not knocking you but damn post half the content I post then see how you feel. You probably be done here but guess what? I learned in life it's not all about money even when you need it the most sometimes you have to struggle. The struggle is real! Please don't write anymore about how you're not making any money, and yes i'm begging you please! Cheers Happy Steeming!

Wow you made a $1000 on your first post. Talk about hitting it out of the park.... Nice job and keep posting. I just posted my first and am curious to see if it gets any votes. I guess it's time to Upvote....

That's the spirit! Focus on the content and interacting with the other steemians:) Thanks for posting-

Good luck. We're all learning more all the time about the possibilities of this platform. Still evolving, and we're building it.
