Join Steemit and Poach from Facebook

Lately, I have seen a lot of Promotion posts by various Peoples saying #JoinSteemit and #DeleteFacebook. As much as I like the way it sounds I do believe it's not Time yet to Delete your Facebook account. Instead, keep a Low Profile on Facebook and try to Poach some of their Customers to Steemit. I feel that would be even more of a Help to Promote Steemit.

So when I joined Steemit I pitched some of my Friends abut this amazing Website that is like Facebook but Pays you for your Content and all my Friends were like that's probably a Scam.

Fast Forward three Months I bought a 600 USD Smartphone from my Steemit Earnings and it led to two of my Friends Joining Steemit. Long story short Sometimes Money talks even better than You. Plus post your Success on Steemit and it might lead to some People jumping ships from Facebook.

Now I know that a major part of the #deletefacebook is for the Huge Data Leak Issue which occurred recently but you have to consider the fact that it was you who willingly provided that Data in the first place by giving them a lot of access.

So I will still stay on my view that it's better to Poach from Facebook rather than simply Delete Facebook.

Guys my views on this matter might be entirely wrong and I welcome anyone who is willing to shed some new Light in my Path.

Sort:  

Steemit pays me more than facebook. Why wasting all my time on facebook when i know that i we get paid for what i post on steemit

Yeah no doubt about that as Facebook pays us Nothing.

Hehe.

facebook isn't going anywhere for a long long time and if they were smart, which they usually are lol, they will create their own token and work on the steemit model.

I agree that it is the most fertile poaching ground for us and I do plenty of outreach there. My issue is that too many people on steemit focus on long form blogging content like you see on Medium. The problem is that Medium is barely relevant and that type of content is not what most people want to create and share. Most social media content is short and worthless. Short is worthless is how we will grow lol. We need to stop policing content here and encourage people to do as they normally do on other platforms .

I do agree with you on the Point that Social Media nowadays admire only the Useless stuff and nobody gives a Damn if you write a Really good Article.

That being said the Money Factor might smoothen things up a bit.

Facebook could buy Steemit and merge everything together.

Yeah I really doub't that. As even if Facebook Buys Steemit a new Platform will be created by the Devs where we will shift.

Plus Steemit is just a Website they would have to buy Steemit.Inc and I don't see that Happenig.

Then the Jack of all Apples is the fact that even if Facebook Buys everything we are the People that are in control with our Steempower.

Upvoted .
Your post is very interesting, you show a good way to capch people to steemit.

I am a steady Worker I will once again Pitch my Friends about Steemit after I get a Huge Payout.

Agree that it is not the time to move everyone from Facebook. We still need a stable and legitimate mobile application for Steemit which is what caused the exponential growth of Facebook years ago. Also, many users in countries where telecom and internet access are limited use Facebook as they main source of communication which is important for them and Steemit still does not provide that functionality. Although I do believe that Steemit will grow to be a competitor, the #deletefacebook movement is still too early.

Yes, I feel that apart from all the Cloud and Daggers Facebook does connect a Portion of People. And it is early to delete Facebook I love to rather Poach their Customers.

Hehe

good suggestions. i think we can limit our data sharing on facebook and can remain safe

Especially Facebook Messenger requirs a lot of Access even your Microphone so it's better to avoid it.

I hate facebook The biggest mistake in my life has been Facebook id Khulna. Stimate a lot to highlight Facebook. I can learn some good things from this. i agree with sir....
