One resounding fact is that success has no short cut. Success has to be earned. Achieving success and remaining a success is hard work and it always pays off. As newbies, the major complaining we tend to make is about earnings on Steemit we are all in search for quick cash. So I will be sharing a quick way to earn that SBD and grow your influence in the Steemit community if the guidelines in this article is followed.
Your major priority on Steemit is not in your earnings, you have to put in a lot of work to get those earnings!
You might not get high rewards in your first day(s) or even week(s) on Steemit. You could say some are getting high rewards, even on their first post (introductrory post), and I have been in the community for a while now and nothing to show for. You could say I put in a lot of time, energy in to the platform but still earning below $2 or as the case may be. Just be consistent and create good content, be patient, interact with others. There is no quick fix.
Create your own content, what intrigues you. You see I could go about copying a post made by a whale which has made over $300 and actually not get anything as reward in return. So you need to establish one thing, what are you good at, it could be in sport, writing stories, food, photography, and many more, you know better. Look out for what makes you different and stick to it. Remember like I said earlier consistency is the key. Be Original!
How do you comment on a post? What are your criteria for Upvoting a post?
It’s not just enough to just go commenting on a post without actually taking time to read it through. Take your time read and construct your comments well and meaningful that it reflects you have actually read through instead of comment for just commenting sake.
It’s not about the number of you Upvote you make in a day that determines the Upvotes you get in return, be that persons that reads through a post before upvoting. Just put in a lot of work to building your content and the earnings will come along side!
Know this, paying a higher price than others for something is worthwhile.
