Oh, please come and join Steemit,
they said, you are a great writer. So I did at March 2018. What did bring Steemit me till so far? Nothing! That might sound weird, but it is true.
I am a mobile blogger, do write a lot,
but people are no longer interested in reading. They do not read books, do not read short stories, they mainly watch pictures and even about that I have big doubts.
I was joining some discord groups.
There was hardly contact with other Steemians. Always the same 3-5 people chatting. You could post your content, but it did not bring me more views. I was not able to join live chats or readings or lessons or... so I quit with discord also because it became harder to login.
Those who did ask me to come and join left.
This means I am on my own now. I also never made friends over here. It is impossible if you have a hard time to: login, post, reply, etc. and if you get no replies yourself.
I hoped it was easier to post via Steepshot,
but it turned out it is not. I have the same problem... not able to post because of the internet connection or? If it comes to Steepshot it surprises me what kind of pictures and text are upvoted....
I did not earn anything over here,
not worth mentioning. I do have followers but believe this is as fake as it is at Facebook. If only 10 or 20 people would follow me for real, had a look at what I wrote, would upvote or resteem, it would be different, but this is not the case.
This is not the place for real writers,
nor artists. This is hardly the place where you will make friends, find good content or will be discovered. The only thing Steemit might be good for is that your content is safe and will be on the blockchain forever.
Well, it seems you finally have found a community that does respond and talk to each other. Try to participate in the freewrite prompts you find on @mariannewest profile and in the contests we do at the Freewrite House.
Right now - the Adopt Me contest is open and on Tuesday, we have the Recommend your Favorite Freewrite going on.
It does take time to create a following here - but it can be done. Visiting and commenting on other people's blogs is key.
Good luck to you!
