From experience, I haven't actually earned huge payout whenever I make some quality posts on Steemit. But when I started using musing, I was able to achieve good payout because there the curators and other musing users do read my posts which enables me get upvotes from musing. There are also many musing users who had to start using musing.io because of the great advantage and testimonies shared by other musing users.

Musing users like @littleboy, @zoneboy and many others are also earning very good including me.
