Make money from your comments - learn about Steem-bounty and how it works!
Steemit is a platform that rewards users for quality content and we all work hard to produce the kind of content that competes with thousands of others made on Steemit everyday. One of the way we make money on Steemit is when people upvote our comments. However, there is an innovative way to own more from your quality comments apart from the upvotes on it. Welcome to Steem-bounty!!! You earn from your comments when you use Steem-bounty. Lets see how it works.
What is Steem-bounty?
Steem-bounty is a direct way to reward people more for the comments they make on posts. Aside from the earnings made when people upvote your comment, steem-bounty pays you steem or SBD for the comment itself. A bounty is the money paid to people who commented on the post. Since this money is paid in Steem or SBD, the program is called steem-bounty.
How it works.
The author of a post sets up a bounty for his post in steem or SBD. People compete for the bounty by making creative and original comments to the post. At the end of 7 days (when the post has paid out), the bounty is shared among the commenters.
How the bounty is shared
The bounty is divided into 2 parts of 80% and 20%.
80% of the bounty
The creator distributes 80% of the bounty among the voters. He votes for each commenter by a particular percentage he decides. When making the votes, he decides the percentage of vote to give each commenter according to the quality of their comments.
20% of the bounty
20% of the bounty is shared based on the value of the votes on the comments cast by steemit users.
What if the bounty creator did not vote but steemit users voted?
The vote from the community is used to share the bounty 100%.
What if the steemit community did not vote but the bounty creator voted?
The vote from the bounty creator is used to share the bounty 100%.
