Promote Dtube By Not Quitting Facebook!!!

in onelovedtube •  7 years ago 


Hello lovelies!

So today I talk to you about how to promote Dtube by not quitting Facebook. Of course everyone is excited to F*ck the Zuck. I am too! I want to dump him faster than an abusive ex. HOWEVER, think about this before you actually do it.

Chances are, if you are anything like myself, you have a history on Facebook, you have invested time, maybe even money into building something on there. Don't just throw it away! I am not saying this because I think it stands even one iota of a chance in the upcoming decentralized world, but more because we are not at that world yet, and why not use what we already have to promote the new things that we want!?!

I have started posting my Dtube links to my Facebook pages, and they have gone over really well. People like the Lady Steem character, people like the news, people keep asking me, "what is this dtube thing?" That is exactly what we need/want. We need promotion, Dtube and Steemit needs to be featured. If we want to get people over, they have to know someone there, it has to feel trustworthy and inviting. Using Facebook is a perfect way to do that.

Get everyone you know over here, and then we can all have a #DumpFacebook party together. Yet don't be shocked if that takes a few years. Not even MySpace was taken down overnight.

Well let me know what you guys think about all this below!

See you tomorrow friends, with some fresh BuzzSteem!

xx~Beth

Facebook is currently filtering out anything blockchain related which includes decentralization, ICO's, etc. I reached my friend limit several years ago and have left nothing but a steady stream of Steemit links since last September and virtually every FB post is now down to zero likes or an occasional like or two.

Perhaps they haven't figured out dtube.com or dlive links yet, but they will soon enough. This will probably have to go grass roots to be successful.

I have been actually gaining some followers on my FB page with my links. Perhaps they will crack down, but I will ride the wave out as long as I can. It's much faster and more effective for me than to try to convince people individually. I think people also are interested when they click into my profile and see that I am actually earning money on these videos. Nothing sells Steemit and Dtube better than Steemit and Dtube itself.

Nice Shirt! ; )

Yeah this pretty cool guy designed it.

DTUBE SHIRT!!!

i think you are exactly on Miss Beth! Dtube is next for me. I can’t write all of this down forever — I have a following on FB 35k Page 3k in a group. I want to establish myself firmly first then I will bring them in ......

That's amazing! And it sounds like a sound strategy!

@bethwheatcraft I'm new here on this platform, someone from whatsapp talked about your blog, what's his username again..

Hmm, I think he's username should be udezee, he spoke highly of you and I decided to give you a visit.
I was advised to follow high quality steemians and leave honest comments. I'm still wavering on the ocean of steemit.
I hope you be a boat for me on my works or publications... Lol

Concerning my works I only have one for now.

Now to your post

I was unable to stream this video smoothly.
When I get to 0:35mins it hangs.

Lovely t-shirt. I think I will have to design one for myself you know.
I'm sorry to say this, you are beautiful. 💯%

Dtube videos are often very hard to stream. I am considering hosting my own videos soon so that should help their streaming capabilities. I love @udezee! He is one of my favorite people in the whole world! If you need help with anything, just let me know!! Nice to meet you! :)

@bethwheatcraft thank you 😄😄
I'm blushing 😂😂

Thank you for the support @bethwheatcraft and I hope your video hosting works.
It's an honour to meet you
@udezee is a cool headed guy.

@kabeertijani you took to my advice, Nice
You haven't written your introduceyourself post, please do write it.
If you need any steem experience I will be more than happy to help share mine with you.

Agreed. To early to delete, but continually posting from here to FB allows all my friends to see the articles they want w/o suckerberg. Steemit is for growth 2018, hopefully delete 2020

Agreed, don't cut off your nose to spite your face ;)

I guess we mine as well ride the main stream sites like youtube and facebook until the wheels come off

I like your position here; however, Facebook makes my head hurt.

I found Facebook a really useful tool for community organising, and I stuck with it when it became an advertising platform and even when they began manipulating algorithms. I'm done with it, and I couldn't be happier.

Keep on. :-)
