Recently i've been hearing a load of complaints about how 'unfair' the upvote system is because of the value of an upvote.
To that i respond with, No it's almost fully fair, complaining about it is the absurd part.
Because while this platform relies heavily on big money donations to be converted into Steem Power, it is also easily accomplishible to grow without putting a single bitcoin into it.
While sure their is the point that even if you get 20 upvotes from people with reputation 25 and low steem power will give you an 'unfair' amount for the work you put into it. I completely detest this argument however because honestly speaking it is so easily achievable to get 1 upvote from a person of high influence and even if you do recieve those 20 upvotes and gain like 0.02 steem dollars while 1 upvote of a guy with 500+ SP will get much more single handedly, they have put in the money and have invested into steemit as a future platform the fact that you are complaning about it is almost disrespectful towards those people who have 'put something on the line' while you are here bitching about it, when you can just as easily do it.
The other counter argument i have is that, as a begginer on steemit catching 'big fish' aka people with high SP, to upvote your post is quite frequent. However to do this you must know the various techniques that will allow for this to happen. First of using clickbait to lure in the audience. It is not often that high rep and SP content creators visit the 'new tab', but if they do they expect something very good or informative in return for their upvote.
If you are able to lure them in once, it is highely likely the same person might follow you and do it again. This itself can make for a drastically quick transition to a powerful and influential 'content creator'. Well there are many techniques for grabbing a person's attention and while i will not have time to list them all, it is your duty, the people who don't invest into steemit, to research how to grab a person's attention. Because this is the fundamental to your own success, if you wish for it.
Anyways, with this I sign out and i hope you have a good day,
