Is Steemit making you money...yet? Here are some tips!

in #money7 years ago (edited)

Basics of Steemit - Before you finish writing that article there are a few things you want to consider.

If someone likes the article you wrote they will upvote you.  If a lot of people upvote, then you and everyone that voted will be bumped up in popularity.

If you upvote the "right" articles then you too can be bumped into popularity but be careful.  If you upvote an unpopular post then down those points you go.  But wait, make sure you vote after the post has been active for at least 15 minutes or more.  

So maybe you should wait until the popular posters post so you can upvote.

Thoughts?

oh and P.S. Don't forget to add a stock photo (https://www.pexels.com/)...make sure it's 100% free to use and upload it to: https://imgsafe.org/

Which is smart on steemit's part so they don't have to spend money uploading all of those photos on their servers end.

What do you mean by unpopular posts, flagged posts perhaps, or do you mean posts with very few votes?
Because I up vote the posts I like, not just the ones with tons of votes.

Thanks for the suggestion! Well from what I've noticed, if a post isn't well liked but you like it, it seems to effect your numbers overall. I could be wrong on this but I noticed my points go down when I like a post that isn't voted as much. Maybe it will all even out but I do find it peculiar. It is important to like posts you like though since it helps boost quality content.

I don't know if the posts I vote for are quality content though, and by the way I just up voted your post. Shall I remove it? lol

No joke.....I'll let it be :) (edit thank you for the tips)

Lol I like your sense of humour! I am just trying to help out from observation. I think at least for me quality content is liking what I want to continue to read and enjoy. Although I do feel a little silly when I like a post and I notice my number does down even by an iota since curating/upvoting points are a thing.
