RE: Steem School Episode 70 - 30% Posting and 70% Networking?

Yeah i think like always, it's the good mix, that make success. I am not sure about the 70% 30% balance thou. I personally think the consistency of posts coming like teached by you is one factor to success, but every fixed rule or principle you force upon yourself also carries the risk of getting unflexible, and unflexibility leads to stagnation, anger or depression. I mean it's totally ok to do 70/30, if you adjust the level based on experience. Like I think (just my opinion) you should skip a day posting if you don't have much to say and do networking instead. Also networking leads to new interests and topics and so it leads to new content.

So if there is one of these days were you don't know what to talk about, you should do networking first/instead, also because it leads you most certain to doing a post anyways because you found something you need to talk about. To give honest feedback there are some days you make videos with 100% value and then days when I think ok he just made a video to make a video.

It's the old battle between Quality and Quantitiy. Quantity is important for being loud and getting heard, but Quality is what makes people stay and makes followers click your video because he knows this will be no waste of time. Quality in my opinion is always one step ahead of Quantity, as you build something stable and valueable, and people stay, while too much Quantity leads to more follower, who leave after a week because you are spamming videos and sometimes waste their time, so they think twice before clicking your new post and eventually unfollow when they recognize they don't even click your videos anymore and other higher quality steemians will not be shown enough in the feed.

So i think you should be more focused on quality than on your pride never to have made a mistake and doing one video per day to death because nobody can call you a liar or question your integrity.

Hey i mean do one video per day, ok its fine, but don't do two... that's way over the top. Hope i was not to rude, it's just what i think. I often like your content but when it comes to videos where people do a video to do a video and it's wating my time i get pissed, i think everybody would. Fucking spend that time networking-building relationships.

Damn dude... you almost wrote a post right here! Well done!

I'm just going to add my point of view about the quantity vs quality debate:

I had to stop making posts for almost 1 week because of exams, when i came back i had the option of doing 2 posts per day (more quantity less quality) or 1 post a daily, but a high quality one... i choose 1 post per day... second day in and got a curie upvote that was worth all the posts i didn't do... not only that but getting that curie upvote actually made my post more visible getting me new followers!

And again, really good comment, i had to grab a coffee mug to read all that!
