NEWBIE QUESTIONS: WHY DO I WRITE GOOD CONTENTS & STILL GET LITTLE UPVOTES?

Dear Minnow,
I have gotten this question alot. Newbies keep asking this over and over... you know why?
SIMPLE ANSWER!

They came with the wrong mindset.

In other words, they came for the money and not for the community.

See the importance of community here: "On Steemit, Content Is King While Community Is Queen"

I have reiterated over and over why its good to come for the money. We all need money but if you put it first, you are going into the rat-race. You Can Never Leave The Rat-Race Unless You Unlearn The Rat-Race Mindset.

The rat-race mindset is a poverty mentality.

To succeed here, you need an abundance mentality.

LET ME LIST SOME OF THE COMMON THINGS NEWBIES DO WRONGLY ON STEEMIT

• Their blog is messy:

a messy blog is unorganized. It has no title. No focus. No direction. IF YOU WANT to be a serious blogger, then be!

For example, you will commonly see a newbie's blog without profile image. Many don't have a catchy bio. Many don't have a cover image.

• Their content is poor:

a very important point to note is that you are not the judge of what content is viral. The masses are the judge. On your own part, what you can guarantee is quality.

Many newbies have done a very poor research in their work. Images are zero.

• They are not unique:

Steemit is not Twitter where you write 2 words and expect an upvote. Steemit is not Facebook where you write the same thing with everybody else and expect an upvote.

You have to find a niche. Make your passion count and give us all what we have never seen on Steemit before. Read "HOW TO FIND YOUR NICHE"

• They plagiarize alot:

This is just damn crazy. When you have @cheetah commenting on your post, yet you expect people to take you seriously? Steemit is a place for unique, original, quality people. You must learn to be unique and original to survive here.

Cite the sources of your images, and never you copy and paste.

• Too many useless resteems:

Sometimes you can visit someone's blog ad struggle to find their own content.

Why? Because they have an endless list of useless resteems. You will quickly learn that you should only resteem a post that falls within your niche or follows the course of your pathway.

• They never comment, they only spam:

You have to stop thinking about what steemit can do for you. Instead think about what you will do for steemit.

Read and leave a valuable comment on people's blogs. Not spam comments like "nice post". CRAP!

• They are not patient nor consistent:

They want to blow with just one post. You have to keep doing good over and over and over again.

Do it until you are known for it. That doesn't happen in one day. I promise. Think long-term. Think future!

I won't say more. Money follows those who create value; not the other way round. Steemit is no exception to the law of money.

Take your time. Build a followership. Build a brand. Get known for something. And Upvotes will rain on you so much that you may need an umbrella.

Have a Happy Sunday and Keep Steeming come rain, come sunshine!!
