101 handy tricks to lure more viewers for your posts!

in #steemit8 years ago

Most of us need and want more views (and upvotes), and if we can't create good enough content we should trick people into thinking we are cool and awesome!

Trick number 1 - Buy upvotes to look more impressive

When you have bought your upvotes, people will assume you are a big, awesome user with great content. They will arrive, upvote you, comment at you.. mostly only to make themselves visible to you in secret hopes of getting your amazing upvotes, or even better - you as a follower.

You can still have less than 1000 SP as if people will think a big payout means a huge whale. Well done, you have received loads of people viewing your post only because you have a big upvote on it.

Trick number 10 - Preview abusal on photography!

We all love good quality photography posts. Sometimes we have such a hurry to find so many good photographers, we don't even open their posts. I admit, I sometimes upvote a post without reading it through, so this opens a perfect way to create a big photography post using only one good photo and several bad ones.

Just add the best photo as the first one.

We all hate those photography posts with a single picture, but this way in theory you are not creating a single photo post, but you do not need to share all your good photos at once! Yay!

Trick number 11 - Try to please your enemies

You have very high knowledge on a topic X, which has a big group of people opposing it (like antivaxxers, flatearthers etc.)? Just start creating posts supporting the view you don't support. If you are a handy one, you'll just create another account to post antivaxxer stuff or flatearthists posts.

This way you can create high quality posts and attract some high power users who support the world view you are posting about. Way to go, draining the power of your enemies!

Trick number 100 - Be original!

I wish this wouldn't need to be a trick.

Trick number 101 - Become more impressive by using binary numbers!

Now I can honestly say the topic of the post wasn't wrong. I have 101 tricks. However I do hope you weren't expecting an more extensive list, as this is the most I could come up with.

If anyone feels disappointed, you are free to feel that way.

Thanks, handy tips and tricks..err The trick with the banana? quick moving ninja sword perhaps

That could work, but I can't imagine quick moving ninja sword helping to get more Steemit viewers :)

good read.. and using binary numbers was a good one. upvoted and resteemed.

Thanks :)

I'm assuming I'll still get someone commenting "what there were only 5?" but that's what we get in life.

ha ha... actually i was about to write where are the other tricks before it struck me

Oh man, so close. I'm hoping someone else will not think before writing :)

I am dissapointed and entertained at the same time. So confusing!!! :/

Hey, that's what my wife is always saying! :D

I thought that you're hiding your tricks, but the biggest trick is in your use of binary numbers. Excellent :)

I'm still confused about the banana tho.

So am I.

Lucky for me, it looks cool so I got a nice preview photo :)

I love binary....I am after all a mathematician. very innovative @apsu, I enjoyed reading....but at my age I am behind all you wonderful young people and I have so much to learn.

keep on innovating

I will also upvote and follow you thank you

Actually part of this post came as an idea from a mathematician joke. "There are 10 kinds of people, those who understand binary and those who don't."

Thank you for the comment :)

That's a relief. I usually avoid long post. 101 Tricks!! I thought that would be long post. Anyhow, I came to read your post (because You are a good author) [I think a handsome upvote to this comment :P ) and found that only 3 tricks are here :)

By the way, a good number of users are using Tricks no 1.

Well I gave you 1% more than I have currently in my comment upvotes, so I think that is truly handsome upvote ;)

Thank you, I'm happy to have you as a reader!

haha i love trick number 101! you're creative and crafty as always @apsu bro! lol :)

Thanks, you can never go wong with your compliments :)

101 = 5 in binary.
Very clever.

Doing my best to impress people without being a good writer, artist or scientist.

Nicely done , thanks for being candid .
