RE: Why Steemit will make you more money than any blog with adsense

in #steemit7 years ago

I agree in principle. But it's a fickle platform where a smiley face earns far more than anyone's philosophical exposition, where quality (of input) does not directly gear to quantity (of Steem earned).
So there is much to calculate and learn to get into the flow of making it work.
Nonetheless, it is a noble effort and fun to see how it all goes.

Sort:  

It is definitely an interesting platform. I have spent hours writing posts putting 110% effort in for it to get a few cents reward. Then a very simple post that takes half an hour or so and it performs well.
I suppose it comes down to what content works well at the time. Which I suppose is the same as anything really.

Yes, I think I got that long detailed posts might be good for the soul to get them out, but short great thoughts may well work better.
Reminds me of an old friend, a very talented but struggling artist and writer, who told me once that the universe is screwed up because it rewards persistence over talent. I pointed out that he was screwed up because he knew how the universe worked and expected differently.
So I just need to conform to Steemit, rather than expecting it to conform to me :)
