Steemit/Steemians Don't Love Me. :(

in #steemit5 years ago

I don't know what the secret is quite honestly..because I take time to upload what I think it's good quality content.

Yet..the result is very little engagement and hardly any upvotes or steem $.

Yet, when I look on steem content one photo of a house or some grafitti or a cat, with little text or background story, can be generating lots of engagement and multiple dollars.

Added a photo a cat for no other reason than I suspect it might get more votes than my other well-thought out posts...

So any thoughts?
Anyone even there?

Hello there, @zedcm!

Starting on this site is very complicated... and the earnings are not as straightforward as you may think. Many posts you see are being promoted, meaning that people are paying to get those rewards and making their posts more visible.

There are countless Daily Upvote Services as well... and if you look at my posts, you'll see that a big part of my earnings are coming from services that I've invested in.

Yes, I paid to get some daily upvotes... and many others did it, too.

So, you should not be comparing your earnings to others because we all have different strategies.

I advise you to follow @ayushjalan and read his articles. He's been explaining this rather well: https://steemit.com/steemit/@ayushjalan/my-1st-steemit-anniversary-everything-i-learned-from-my-journey

I spent 3 or 4 months posting everyday... and earning next to zero. So don't be discouraged by that because it happens with everyone.

Just stay on your path and be consistent... and followers will come. I also suggest you look into the @pifc community and enter some contests. @brittandjosie has been running a lot of contests lately. @worldcapture has a weekly photo contest you can definitely enter... The main thing is to get yourself out there, start interacting with others and soon you'll have a few loyal followers.

I hope these tips help you.

Goodmorning @trincowski thank you for the shoutout

Thank you very much for the tips and motivational words. My goal is not just about making money, but it feels encouraging and rewarding to have both engagement and financial gain, even if small. I will stick with it and hopefully begin to better understand the steemit system :)

Good question. It is a frustrating world when you don't get found or can't find the right avenue to take. So, I have looked at your content and you have some good content. We just need to find you someone who will be able to get your content out to other people.

Have you heard of @shadowspub's Pimp Your Post Thursday shows in the Ramble on discord? Twice a day on Thursdays you can present your posts and get it out there to many other people. What are some of the ways you are presenting your content?
