I was sitting and pondering today of the learnings I have had over the past few months, here on this platform. Learnings that have helped me grow, accumulate a decent amount in my wallet, and given me recognition on the platform. And I thought I should share it here, for those who are new and want to grow.
These are truly from my personal experience here. I started long back in 2018 and have been posting here and there but my growth streak started just 2-3 months back. Obviously, there were some steps I took that led to that growth, and my analysis says these apply to others here as well.
So here you go! If you are new to the platform, this post will help you reach higher in less amount of time. I wish I would have come across such information back then.
POB Power is actually very powerful. Higher is your power, more the the value of your upvote and better is you control and name on the platform. We all know the whales here, right? But do we know of any fishes? NO. So you have to be a whale and for that, you must stake your earnings. If you want to be a whale faster, you can buy and stake POB tokens which would do pretty much the same job.
Engagement is a very important growth factor here. When you engage, people get to know you, your interests. They start following you, read your content, comment, and then one day, your post goes trending. Engaging also helps to build interest which is very important for anything you do.
You can engage with people of similar interests, which you can find by visiting the communities.
Content matters! Pick areas of interest and write good quality content. Plagiarism is a big No-No. Your content should reflect what you feel and who you are. It should not only be content, it should reflect your experience and thoughts.
You can also go through trending posts that will help you understand what kind of content people here like to read and shape your profile accordingly.
There are several contests held here by people, participating in those contests helps you gain recognition and gives better visibility to your content.
This worked out beautifully for me, my journey expedited when I started participating in these contests.
You are new here, people have been playing for a while. You will not touch the skies on day 1. It will take time. Don't get disheartened when you see no comments or upvotes. Just be consistent, keep posting and engaging and if your content is worthy, you will be noticed very soon.
Hope this helps the new bees out here.
