My Statistics: Commenting and why it's Important! (Top 7 in LEO)

That was an image taken 4 days ago and you can clearly see my stats according to @hivebuzz.

And now that's an image taken today! As you can all my stats increased except of the average author rewards as my content is either bad or hard to found by many people!

And that's the new badge i gained and the main topic for today!

How awesome am i having surpassed 6000 comments? Now as you will see below my main goal is to reach 6500 comments by the end of the year. I won't earn anything doing that, it's just a personal goal for the sake of engagement!

Is Commenting important?

It really depends on your perspective i think even though you can say i am more close-minded regarding that matter. For example, my answer would be definitely yes but allow me to elaborate on that!

To begin with, commenting is part of a social media type of platform and Leo/Hive/Steemit is exactly that, at least for the time being. People make their posts, you can like and comment on them.

Why Content Creators need Comments?

A lot of us when writing our posts, we dedicate a lot of our precious time to do so and we try our best in order to please ourselves and you the community! Personally, i have invested more than 2-3 hours for certain posts that include research and stuff!

The reason i say all of the above is to show you how important is commenting. When i invest all this amount of time to create something, i honestly don't care that much about the rewards.

If you don't believe me check the rewards i get, it's not low but it's definitely not big not even mid-size most of the time and i can even compare them with posts that earn 2-3-4-5 times the amount and it's 100 words of nothing! I know many of you understand what i am talking about!

So when i invest all this amount of time i want 2 things. The first one is for someone to actually read it, or most of it, and secondly to make a meaningful comment!

I believe or want to believe that all the content creators out there deep down want the interaction with the community! It is so awesome to see many and different comments below your posts and slowly starting gaining more and more as well as knowing more and more the ones that keep on commenting!

Also, for me during hard times that i wanted to quit these platforms, when mostly all the people upvoted their friends, nobody did manual curation and the bots ruled, only some comments under my posts gave me the motivation i needed to remain and keep on and i wanna do the same for others!

Comments = Better Community = More Audience = More Money = Better Life

I think it's pretty self-explanatory but to say a few more words if you keep on making meaningful comments, more and more authors will get the motivation they need as well as pleasure! Then bonds will be created and we gonna get stronger as a community in any way.

Word will get about this out there and more people will join in thus leading to more audience, more money and ofc a better life for everyone. That is if only we cast aside those that will try to take advantage of this!

Earning $$ by Commenting

Do you know that you can actually earn by commenting? Let's say that you don't wanna post or generally create content. You can easily make a meaningful comment and the user may reward you with some $$.

See it's actually really simple! Note that there are times that i earned from comments per day more than i earn for one of my posts so imagine the possibilities!

Weekly Goal & Achievement

Finally, 2 weeks ago i had made less than 10 comments something that triggered me somehow. I challenged myself then to be in the top Authors that commented the most, according to @leo.stats

A couple of hours ago the weekly LeoFinanc Stats came out and check below what i managed!

We got a top 11 and i climbed from 10 comments to 134 earning the 7th place. Beware the outsider you all! The following week i wanna remain in this top 11 and who knows we may end up seeing new names in this board like mine! In case you can't clearly see the other authors, they are:
