Google's Video Content Network, YouTube.com has for years been a bone in the neck. I 've decided to ditch youtube for obvious reasons. Youtube at once was the key rewarder for a lot of content creators. It was far the most popular and most visited site for video contents. These gave rise to use and performance of this Ad driven network.
Youtube is powered by Google's Advertising revenue network called AdSense. To get rewarded on youtube, you have to activate AdSense. Their strict policies which increase and change by the day has made content owners like Me and a lot of users frustrated.
Well, I lost a lot of revenue, lots of investments, my time and creative efforts when youtube shutdown a few of my accounts for claims I cannot fathom. My Google AdSense was also revoked making me lose all the funds saved so far. It was a hard time for me and my hard grown subscribers seeing that originality and efforts are now drained to the sea.
Well, it was not the end of the world! Steem has proven that there's hope, incentivizing one's content by the matter of Peer-to-peer upvote/network. It was a smart move I quickly maximized my capacity and started networking and building a community of people.
Here are my two thoughts, get everyone I know to get a steemit account, make them fall in love with Steem Dollars and Steem. Get them acquainted with the tools on steem, make them see the capacity and power of open-source in the long run build my own network, more dependable and widespread. Move all my contents and community to embrace and use D.tube or dlive.io or our on own self-built opensource applications using STEEM as backend. Long Live Steem! Long live Smart Media Token.
