Good day everyone! Zak Ludick here from a chilly Cape Town, South Africa!
Today I would to talk about the day to day gain and growth that is possible on Hive!
I have helped a lot of people start new accounts on hive and it is painfully obvious that people have a skewed perception of how to gain and grow in their accounts on this web 3 platform.
Most people are trained to look at Earnings versus time. All of us are sort of trained to look at a calculation of how much we earn per hour by doing a certain kind of job. We make comparisons between one sort of job and another job by looking at how much you earn per hour of doing that work.
Another way of looking at it is if we look at the profitability of each job done as a unit or product and then it still comes back to calculating how much time we used to be able to provide such a product.
Very often when people start a new hive account they find that they do a few posts that are their introductions into a community and this will not always but often grant them a good correlation on their content which then further leads them to believe that there is A set amount that they can earn from a certain kind of effort.
After this, they hit a different sort of curve: they are no longer new and they don't have a lot of friends and they don't have a lot of stake(HP).
So now, when they post it becomes significantly more difficult to get a curation and earn a decent payout on their posts.
But the earning and income shoupd not be misunderstood! You need to move forward and gain those smaller increments.
When you do this consistently then you shall find that you grow faster then you thought.
I run the Busy Bees weekly Progress report every Sunday so I deal with a lot of Data over and over again. We have Orcas, Dolphins, Minnows and of course some Redfish.
There are zero Redfish that can earn as much as an normally active Dolphin. There are no Minnows who can hope to compete and earn from their posts like the Orcas do. Not an active one.
But you WILL progress from Redfish to Minnow if only you would post often.
Blog and Stake and build up that HP. Every 1 HP counts for something!
Also, the value of Hive is down at the moment and yet we control what price we sell it at! And the more you accumilate, the more you can influence. You gain more HIve in APR, you earn more from curating.
It really is a win win.
But bottom line here: there is grinding work to be done! It is a grind quest!
So go out there ans make your content. Try something new and be interesting.
If you keep grinding them out week after week, you sall see how your earning begin to pick up! As I say: I have the data to back that up!
Thanks for reading!
Cheers!
