RE: 10 Tips for Improving ITSM Metrics and Reports
What I did do was provide some of MY steem, that I earned or purchased to a curation pool. In return, I get votes from the pool.
Since HF21 this is severely frowned upon. There's nothing wrong with your content, but ask yourself.. 'is there anywhere else I can get a 100% return in 7 days?'
If your content is good it will be noticed and up-voted by the community and the curation groups. I for one look for the good stuff and try and get people @curie votes.
Wouldn't you prefer that than what just happened?
You won't get a cent from Facebook, that's a given.
Are you kidding? @tipu and @minnowbooster are the exact same thing from what I can tell.
They are still vote buying services amongst other things. There are people here actively looking for vote buyers to down-vote.
It would have been someone else that would have caught this if not me.
Can you remember Trending full of content that was paid for, now it's organic.
If you want your content on Trending and want to pay for it to be there, then decline rewards, nobody will bother you.
It's this that caught my eye.
Why do I do this?
Because I'm a largish stakeholder and don't want the platform to revert back to it's old image of, 'Trending is for paid votes'
I can see your not being an arsehole about all this like some of them are. You don't need to leave.. join us in making this place better.
When you say "decline rewards" are you meaning declining rewards for the vote I promote it with, or all rewards, to include those who visit and vote on it? If the first, I can see that, same thing basically as paying to promote on anohter platform. You pay in hopes those that see it will reward you.
If my thinking is wrong, please..correct me.
I don't know if you use Steemit or Steempeak. If the former its when you post in the advanced settings at the bottom of the page.
Yes, it's like advertising on Twitter or Facebook.
But wouldn't declining payouts using this method stop rewards for individual user votes from those actually viewing the content and upvoting it?
Do you mean curation rewards for your voters?
If so, yes those rewards would also not apply if Decline is set.
It's is essentially paying for your content to be promoted and possibly making Trending, though it would need to be around $30 value to be seen.
This community is very small and tight-knit for the moment. If BTC booms again things will change and more will flock here.
What are you trying to achieve?
Earn some crypto for your work or appear on Trending?
I really just like creating the content and conversing about it. Yes, earning Steem is a consideration. My thought is that the Steem will come as my content gets more views. It's just getting that initial following that is the challenge.
