Commenting = Interaction = Huge Earning Potential

in #steemit8 years ago

This subject has been discussed a number of times already, but I feel Most may not really understand the Earning Potential from Interacting with others on their posts. I can not say it is a Science, but more of an Earning Tree if you will. I am going to Explain why it is more Beneficial to Interact than actually posts any Content What so ever. Commenting on Posts can help you a number of ways, this can help broaden your Audience and can build a following of those who feel you make sense in what you say or they feel you have the potential to be an Asset to this Community.

Earning Tree Through Commenting

Lets discuss how this Earning Tree works and why One Comment can amount to more Earnings than a Weeks worth of Posting Articles. A new Post pops up in the New section and the Subject arouses your interest. You read through and find the Article to full of helpful information or even suggestions that you do not agree with. Major factor is responding to the post in an intelligent and sensible manner, if you just simply reply "Great Post" all of the time, your Earning tree will never grow. So you Comment on this post and explain why you either Agree or Disagree (not all posts will be of this manner, Agreeing or Disagreeing) and explain in a clear manner how you feel about the post. Simple Formula to the Earning Tree:

Original Comment = Reply = Reply to Reply and So on...

Each one of these Comments and Reply's have the potential to earn. Depending on how your Comment has grabbed the attention of other Users can result in a Lengthy interaction and can result in a number of Votes and Earnings. This is Huge because not all Votes have to be $1 + Value, if you add up a the spread of earnings from these Comments compared to what you have made Posting, hands down you make more from commenting. Many still do not understand why this is, but it is simple. You put yourself in front of a much larger audience when Commenting, specially if the post goes to the Trending side of Steemit.

Final Advice...Don't be a Dick

Although it is ok to voice your opinion, make sure you do not allow your Anger about some subjects to get the best of you. The Comment Tree can be a Double edge Sword if you will as well, the Earning side can Vanish and the Reputation Decline side Can haunt and Destroy your whole Steemit Experience. Some people do commend fair criticism, but will not tolerate Slander and any attempts to just downgrade your fellow Community members. Be Calculated in your Responses and Remember that Your Audience is way larger. You can be Angry, don't get me wrong but you must think about what you are going to say before you start the self Destruct sequence.

Have Fun and Interact with others...Enjoy the Community and its Content

Lastly...Don't let your Emotions get the best of you!!!

Great post. I think comments are an underrated part of steemit. The potential to make money from a comment is only the tip of the iceberg. I think the potential to gain a bigger audience, is the main reason for anyone to comment. (As well as the fact that you can share your thoughts, openly at any time).

Yes, the Audience factor and potential Following you can build is Huge. Much larger than that of a simple post. Thanks for commenting

Agreed. I'm currently devoting a couple of hours each day to voting and commenting. Great post!

This seems to be true. I am earning more from commenting than I am for posting. Admittedly, I've only ever received a maximum of $0.01 for a comment, but that's still more than my record of $0.00 for a post, lol!

Commenting can build up your reputation in the steemit community. People can vote your comments or may even decide to follow you. Make your comments interesting and original to make greater impact
