I would like to refer to your contest advertisement organized by @magcarnie on the steem-ghana platform and crave your indulgence to submit my manuscript for your attention for you to peruse through.

Of all the social media platforms that I have joined, steemit community is the most favourite and rewarding one.Convincing me to join the platform by a friend of mine initially was a tough decision. However, the sound of understanding fell on me when I was finally convinced beyond reasonable doubt that this platform is NONPAREIL.

Noble members or friends of this platform, especially, new members, as you remain fastidious, I would like to use this opportunity to share with you some of the stunning impacts that this noble platform has had on me and what newbies can learn from it.Kindly permit me to take my write-up in an essay form.

First and foremost, through this platform, I have been able to acquaint and connect to other people who are either far or near. It is unequivocally true that since I joined this platform, I have had the opportunity of knowing and connecting with some people across the length and breadth of the world. For instance, I have got to develop good rapport and connect to people from Britain, USA, Canada, China, Nigeria, among others. For example: @chriddi @cherub27 @oppongk. @sabine-reichert @euclid49 @kwadjobonsu @edmund.nef @arimiyawu @confidence202 @kofipascal @pierok @riosparada @chenty @sqube @olivernice @udibekwe @awuahbenjamin @seo-boss and enjoyed their love and kindness. Through steem-promo, I have been able to talk to people to know some traits and also known when and where to assist and motivate people.

Another idiosyncratic benefit for joining the platform is that it is very rewarding. Through this platform,I have been able to gain some appreciable fetching amount of money when one excogitate and posts educative or informative messages. Some of the educative messages encompass health, finance, sports, language, and what have you. Others also include aphoristic or didactic stories. From researchers across the world.

Not only that but also, it serves as a repository of record keeping for me. The platform also undeniably serves as a source where pieces of information are kept and a reference is made as and when the need arises.In fact, I have the passion to write. For the past years my beautiful poems and stories are all gone because a place to keep it was my problem but steemit is a platform to keep information. Newbies who are zealous to write should see this platform as beneficial and can keep documents.

History of my posts

The penultimate point is that it has helped me to identify my passion and interest and that of others across the world. The scintillating messages that are presented on this platform have undoubtedly motivated me to discover my talent and passion and I have taken pragmatic measures to develop them accordingly.
It has also made me zealous to read my research meticulously before I post content. My interest in research is aroused to the highest point as members of this platform take revel in research which tend to find solutions to problems in society.

---

Lastly, it also serves as a medium of education. Aside the above mentioned impacts, I can boast that the platform also serves as a source of erudition where new knowledge is acquired and familiar studies is applied. Being a member of this platform has given me the exposure to apply what I have learned back at school to use. Example, I have learnt how to apply referencing style to avoid plagiarism.

---

Although this platform has unparagon benefits, it must be noted that it also has some shortcomings which newbies and old steemians should adhere to.

---

There is habitual addiction to the usage of the platform. The lucrative nature of the terms and conditions of the platform can make one to be addictive to its patronizing.

---

Also, the regular visitation to the site can cause eye related problems. When one uses the internet for too long a time, the light that emanates from the browsing device can cause damage to the eye. So I advise that we should use it with moderation and take it away from close eye contact.

---

Newbies should understand that not all posts receive appreciable votes that we quest for. They should keep and writing, visiting and always stay optimistic. Since we all want people to visit our posts let us always write good content.

---

Finally, it is also expensive in using the internet. Before one can access the platform, one must buy internet bundle so that he or she can browse. This is costly.But its rewarding satisfy that loophole.

---

From the above write-up, it is clear that the benefits of joining this platform far outweigh its negatives or challenges.I would like to reiterate that the impacts of steemit cannot be over emphasized so it is important that newbies have conviction that steemit is advantageous and as a matter of fact they should employ their friends to join in order to experience the irresistible impacts of this quintessential platform. If it is true that a piece of meat that has fat proves it by the heat of fire, then it is time that steemians and newbies work hard in order to maintain and enjoy this life-changing platform.

I would be very grateful if all steemians and all country reps @njaywan @nattybongo @oppongk including the contest organizer @magcarnie and @awuahbenjamin @mcsamm @delakloe have some bite of this educative content.

Good evening and thank you to you all!!!
