What can I do to promote steem

First of all, what is STEEM?
Steem is like every other coin in Cryptocurrency... Just like Reddit, Bitcoin etc.

Now what's the difference between Steem and other coins (Bitcoin)?...

Bitcoin is a digital currency that can only be owned by buying..

Steem can also be called a coin but it's a social media platform..

Steem's major platform is Steemit and steemit is more like the main source of virilizing steem.

There are only two ways to get steem.

  • Buy it
  • Earn it

To buy Steem all you have to do is to go to Bittrex and buy, and to earn, you have to be very consistent on steemit to earn steem rewards...

You can be rewarded on Steemit with cryptocurrency but in three forms, through;

  • Steem
  • Steem back dollar(SBD)
  • Steem power (SP)

Steemit is a blogging platform where you can post quality articles and pictures to get rewarded with Steem and SBD...

On steemit you can also get rewarded for curating other quality articles...
Curating an article means upvoting/liking, just like you do on other social platform, the only difference is that you earn for curating or being curated on Steemit.

There are people with larger Steem and Steem power... This people either bought the Steem and power it up to Steem power or they've made enough posts and gotten enough rewards via Steem...

Most of them are witnesses and they can also be voted for

Powering up your Steem means converting it to Steem power which gives you the power to curate yourself and other quality post with high reward....

What I can do to promote steemit


Before considering Steemit I'll like to define the term promotion and how to promote a product, because the same rules applies to steemit....

A logical way of promoting anything you want to...

Promotion is a means of making things known to people around you and to the world at large through several mediums like;

  • Radio
  • Social media
  • Television
  • Telling it to people, almost every new person you come in contact with
  • Sharing flyers
  • Printing cloths
  • Setting examples
  • Sacrificing yourself for the sake of the product, like going to any extent to get it for the bidder
  • And convincing people enough to get the product...

For example, i want to promote Steemit now... Which I have been doing though... But for the sake of the contest I need to explain how to go about that...


I see Steem as a product and I really want to promote it....

The first thing that comes to my mind to promote Steem is through Steemit... Because the easiest way to invest in Steem without spending a penny is through blogging on the platform...

Why was Steem created?

  • Steem was created because of the talented and less privileged writers that don't have the power to invest in coins because of limited funds...
  • This writers spend most of their time in other platform, writing long articles yet they get nothing in return, instead all the reward goes to the owner of the platform...
  • So Steem was created for people like this... It's better for them to spend their time here on Steemit, earn Steem, earn SBDs and still power up their Steem all with the benefits of their writing skills..
  • Not just that, it's equally a coin that can be invested in and the rate of it going very high in the nearest future is very certain.

If you're a very good writer and you are consistent in what you do, you have a better chance of getting more reward and saving enough Steem or perhaps power up your Steem to become Steempower from the Cryto reward you make here on Steemit, which is actually the best.


Not every one may like the idea of blogging, because I've come across some rich men, who don't mind buying enough Steem but abstain from blogging because they don't have the time for it.

So how do I make Steemit well known for people to invest in Steem...


Remember I stated nine strong steps earlier, that you need to pass through to promote a product to the world...
The first one is through Radio...
If you're not a media person and you don't have enough funds for that you move to the next step, which is Social media...
Social media is like the best possible medium of promoting whatsoever you want to promote be it a local product....
The social media has helped me in so many ways to promote things and steemit is included.. infact steemit is one of the most populous things I ever advertised.

The best way to do this is to write a very short and convincing article and have a screen short of posts with heavy rewards in the trending page...

Drop this on your other social media...
Places like;

  • Facebook
  • Instagram
  • Twitch
  • Twitter
  • Telegram
  • WhatsApp
  • You can even go as far as having a video on your YouTube channel and talk about Steemit, show them how it works and all...

There are ways promoting Steemit can easily go viral on social media... Like paying for advertisement and all... There are other social media platform where things can be advertised.... It depends on how far you want it to go with the promotion....

Another way is to tell it to people, like every new person you come across and make them see reasons why it will be of benefit to them...
Show them how it works on your phone and make them understand it can also be accessed on PC...

The mouth is another great source of advertising...
Like an adage says...

Where you mouth will get, your leg may not possibly get there...

Printings and Arts

Like me being an artist, it's very easy fore to print flyers, cloths and banners etc.
But for the sake of funds, I only print steem logo on my cloths and write my steemit user on it especially when I wanna go for meetups or a social gathering... In that way I can engage more people and tell them about Steemit...

So this are the few methods I can use to promote Steem.. which I have been doing but not just consistent about it because if other duties I indulge in everyday of my life...

I believe if we can follow this few procedures and add ours to it, Steem will become well known to everyone...
