So, my friends are asking me how to earn on Steemit. I taught them about the basics on Steemit and when they are already in the platform, they seem to be so overwhelmed and felt lost in the platform and they tend to feel down about it.
That is why I decided to make this post for my friends to be able to read and also, to the other newbies out there who also feel the same way. :)
I am not an expert in the Steemit platform and, I am even still a minnow myself. But, these are just my experiences and how I dealt with it. :)
1.) Make only 1 - 2 posts a day.
The first time I got here on Steemit, the first question I asked to my friends who invited me here is, "How many post should I post in a day?" And then they told me to just post 1-2 posts a day because when you post a lot in one day, people may tend to not notice your posts. And you might just end up feeling disappointed that nobody liked your post. But, it is not really because nobody likes it. It is just that, you have too many posts that they seem to don't have much time to shine.
2.) Interact more.
So, instead of wasting your time trying to post and post a lot, I recommend you to use that time to interact with others. :) Also take time to read other people's posts, make a comment, follow them if you like their contents. Leave a mark in other people's posts and if you do, they will also visit your profile, read, and also give you a follow or, if they like your post and appreciated your comment on their post, they might even give you an upvote or resteem your posts. :)
3.) Join in Games :)
There are a lot of contests and games here in Steemit. For you to also get to know more people, and for people to notice you, one thing to be able to do that is joining in the games/contests. Based on my experience, I really knew a lot of people when I joined in the games and contests. I tend to get more interactions with it. And, not just that, because if you get lucky, you might also win some SBD's with those contests.
4.) Do not think of the earnings.
Yes, I know that what interests you in joining Steemit is because you can earn money here. But I am telling you now. Forget about the earnings. Just enjoy yourself in the platform. Have fun interacting with others. :) Make friends. Make this an avenue for you to be able to express yourself freely. Drop the thought about the earnings and one day, you will just get shocked about the earnings that you will get. :) Think of the earnings like a bonus. :)
5.) Explore and Don't Be Shy To Ask :)
Just try to explore more in the platform. I know there are a lot of things that you need to learn here. But, just explore little by little. Even me, I tend to get so confused because there are a lot of terminologies that I do not understand but, explore and discover. :) And also, do not be shy to ask. :) People on Steemit are really so kind and people here are just so amazing. Steemit is like a family and always help each other. :)
I know this is just a very short tips. But, let's just make it quick and simple so you won't stress yoursefl out. :) Do not lose hope. Just like what they say, "quitters never win". Just steem on! :) :) If you want to reach success, work on it but of course, the most important thing, enjoy yourself while doing it. :)
