I have analyzed and particularly divided the benefits of using steemit in 4 sections
1. Pace of growth
The steep growth in this users and content of this platform made the most pointing out comment.
Steemit is live from march 2016, its magic and i got to know about it few months back but since that day , i am addicted to it, better to say i am loving it.
And the users has increased to 170000 in this small time and increasing steadily.
As the platform is growing so much fastly , its good to share your content and get value of your talent.
2. Payouts
The second most important thing that is the motivation for writing good content is the payouts. You get higher payouts if your content is good and it motivates to share more good content.
I started with 0.03 as my first payout and i was really happy that i earned something of my own. And this gave me a habit of writing content.
3. No advertisements
Facebook and twitter were most used platform a year before, even now also but this is not the case for me. For me it was past but since the day i get to know about it i spend more time at steemit than facebook and twitter.
And the worst part of facebook is the advertisements. Really its pain.
Its not only 1 , after every 2,3 pages the advertisements starts and more worst than this is the memes over here, people just tag one another and it really ruined the platform.
4. People with same interest
It might not be the case with you but i got people who have interest in travelling and i have planned to host them at my home whenever they visit INDIA.
And similar from them too. I also get from people that they are following my account to keep updated with the latest destinations and travel tips.
I am really impressed by this platform and always pray for its good future.
I am not able to share current total users because www.steemd.com/distribution is down for maintainance. Apology .
