Most people especially new minnows are whining and in extreme case weeping their ass off because they are not making money as expected on Steemit. This is understandable if we consider the time and opportunity costs involve : cost of being online especially in the developing economies where the cost of electricity and internet is too high and in some cases, unavailable. Conversely, in light of this burning issue, those affected should not give up the ghost rather change their blogging strategies by following these constructive advice laid out in this article.
Stop Whining, Here Are Way To Improve Your Earnings On Steemit
1) Invest in Steem Power: the most important thing for someone to do in order to be relevant in any society or organization is to have power. In steemit , Steem power will give you the power to reward good contents, punish bad contents and reward yourself ( by up voting your blog posts). However , it is not advisable to constantly up vote your comments and down vote people just to punish the person. In addition, steem power locks in your investment in the organization plus you can cash in big if the price of steem rises – and note that the fundamentals of steem is very good-so buy steem and power up.
2) Focus On The Fun and learning Experience Not Money: most people focus on earnings that are visible in the trending pages and hot pages without even thinking about the hard work , time and monetary investments those people have invested on steem and steemit. Importantly, however, steemit is no get rich quick scheme or HYIP scheme rather a social media platform that rewards people for their hardwork , good contents and yes investment in steem power. So focus on having fun on the network and learning new things from other steemians . For example , if your interests lies in adventures (wild or sporst) and exploring the world , @b0y2k , @surfermarly , @papa-pepper and @twinner never disappoint in furnishing us with interesting posts . With regard to travelling @sweetsssj , @bookingteam.com , @rea and @kafkanarchy84 always perform- and when it comes to work of art/photography then check out @opheliafu , @saramiller and @inber (plus others not mentioned here).
3) Engaging in the Platform : If you are not a very good content creator , ( Pls do not post for posting sake or copy and paste photos, YouTube videos or quotes / short poems and expect a lot of up votes) then concentrate on commenting on other people posts -good well thought comments not meaningless comments or spams as indicated by @joseph here : Meaningless Comments/Spam , pls stop Follow for Follow or Upvote For Upvote comments. Moreover , up voting good contents and posting contents relating to your core competences and or followers interests for example ,when it comes to yummies / mouthwatering foods and drinks @amy-goodrich , @allasyummyfood , @gringalicious, @wthomas , @karenmckersie and @elfkitchen does magic via their posts and thus always win me over via their excellent posts. Moroever , @thecryptofiend , @xaero1, @infovore , @pharesim and @stellabelle contents regarding crypto currencies and constructive advices are always welcomed .
4) Relationship building : In life, those that are good in relationship building always succeed in the long run. Therefore , try build relationships in steemit by being respectful to your fellow bloggers especially when you respond to their posts (Say no to spam and abusive words as here is not Face book) , joining contests or steemit color or Meme challenges and joining some steemit online clubs via steemit chat or Discord channel . In addition, getting involved in steemit local events, get together hangouts and attending steemit festival will be very helpful with regard to relationship building and subsequently, lead to financial success.
Now is your turn, what do you think will add value to members earnings? Send in your comments , resteem in order for others to join the debate and pls up vote

Yeah . when i started to focus on finding good content on steem , sharing , and gving my opinion on topics that mattered to me , instead of trying to make the perfect post at the perfect time that could give me the most earning , thats when i actually started to get more earnings and people started to follow and share my posts

That is my strategy too. More commenting and less posting. And when I do post I'm posting into challenges or group ideas so I have a hope of being found. I did a couple of yunk posts that got some attention.
I was on tsu - another platform that wanted good content - and at some point they changed the monetization so the the "nice post" and "please like me" people disappeared. That platform still collapsed. I hope this one survives.
Crushing 90% the noobs did not work for tsu. Letting people create poor content and then buy bot votes to support it is not a good idea for steemit in my opinion.
I'm encouraged by things like curie and whalepower and discouraged by bots. I am not happy with the many times I have been asked to spend money to do well here. I see people who have done that and they never developed good content since they bought their way to the top.
But I'm still swimming here and I like the place a lot so far.

How do you judge "good content"? Is "good" the same for everyone? Can Steemit have growth while the masses get poo pooed because they are not "talented" enough or smart enough? If you want the platform to have only what you think is good then it cant grow. If you want it to grow then you will see more variety and diversity. The funny thing is no matter how elitist or grammatically correct a platform is, boob pics will always get the most votes.

I completely agree with you and that is definitely an issue here. When you say, "while the masses get poo pooed because they are not "talented" enough or smart enough" - this is the exact issue that killed tsu. You could not participate if you could not make good content.
So how do those people ever improve if they pay for votes? How does that make steemit look to the outside world? It's true that "good" is a judgement call, but crap is crap.
I've read comment threads here where people complain about not getting enough bang for the amount they paid for the bot - then other people answer, "It's because your content is bad so no one else votes for it." Other people just take the $2 and are happy and produce more bad posts. Either way - the popularity contest was rigged.
This is why fb has groups - so you can get content you need without the boobs (and butts). Those two win anywhere and so are not the issue. Using the nsfw setting works here for that. I have it turned on and I have not seen anything get through that bothered me.
What I'm talking about is trying to get new content creators who want to post here and be active. Apparently that is what steemit needs and what posts I have read ask for - more subject matter content away from crypto and memes etc.
It's hard to ask an established content creator to post here when there is so much effort required, and little chance to succeed against the meme-like stuff. They will stay where they are and steemit will stay its little tiny subculture and not grow.
Steemit needs those creators to keep growing. There is a finite number of people who do great cat memes and now its time to expand beyond that. By paying for traffic, those 4X a day meme people will never change. No one would vote for a large percentage of what is in the bots if it was not promoted by bots. How often do you see a "great" meme that you want to show your freinds?
Somehow - steemit - small as it is - has managed to succeed in the search engines, moz raking, alexa ranking etc. I think it is because of the amazing interaction here. The ranking draws people like me with content because we have it and we want to put it out there in a place that ranks.
Right now there is a huge learning curve and bots support people who pay regardless of quality. Anything can rank through payment - making some tags here pretty spammy.
Right now if I were to ask anyone to join steemit, I I would tell them to ignore the steemit crowd and just post their content for the search engines. But that's not going to work either, since the steemit rank goes into making the search engine rank. You have to have the steemit crowd on your side to do well here, even though they are small.
I'm posting in the yunk tag because I thought it was a cute idea and I have photos for it and I knew people were looking. It's meme-y and completely out of my norm. I'm only doing it for steemit cred and because I feel like I can do it.
I pat myself on the back to say my posts are good and they do get attention. That tag is not being promoted to by bots and it is pretty funny and garbage-free as a whole. I search through it and I like it. It will be interesting to see what happens if a lot of posts get promoted to yunk that are not so good. Hopefully not, but already people use it as a secondary tag with no yunk reference at all so we'll see.

I like you comment and writing style, @fitinfun.

I couldn't agree more. I basically have been advocating exactly the things that you have so thoroughly mentioned in your posts. One of the most fundamental learnings I have concluded by now is that you need to have a stake in the Steem blockchain to be relevant and powerful here. There is only one way to have that stake and that is Steem Power. And there are only two ways to get Steem Power.
There's no surprise that your great post has already covered this in detail. That's why I agree. Same is the case with all four points. I have personally tested and tried these guidelines and have earned a lot of money in the process.
Thanks for writing this. I will surely resteem it because it is one wonderful post for all the minnows compaining about having no rewards. They will get rewards if they follow what you outlined.

I'm new here, but I would never ask anyone to upvote me - just never.
But do you actually look to see who upvotes you in deciding your course? I've been only upvoting 8-12 times a day - every day. I keep my power at 70-90% - as was recommended to me (have no idea if this is really a good plan). I comment a lot but don't usually upvote there unless there is something extraordinary.
So If I comment on your posts and possibly resteem without upvoting - are you seeing that as a negative? I was thinking no one cared since we are talking about one penny per vote. but I have been wrong about many things on steemit.

@charles1, as usual an excellent post by you on a burning issue here with minnows.
Buying SP to improve on voting power is not possible by many minnows as they may not have enough money with them to do so. I will discount that factor with the minnows ( may be a small fraction of the minnows will have the resources to Buy SP, especially from the developing countries. )
I think steemit is a very long walk to make it big
Except for the extremely gifted or talented, for an average person with little or no skill, without much to share or showcase ( that is the case with majority steemians a here) it is an extremely uphill task. I call all these people "Accidental bloggers". They are not here because they are bloggers or have any special skill or talent, but because they see an opportunity here in steemit.
This is one of the biggest positive aspect of steemit. Bringing out creativity, building one into an effective blogger or photographer or Blogger from a nobody is something no blogging platform could ever manage. Earlier elsewhere all the platforms were meant for experts or proficient bloggers and that has changed now. But then these guys have a long way to go.
As you rightly said, first advise would be "Forget looking at the $ payout on blog every 5 minute after posting 😊. That may demoralise you more than anything.
Make it a point to post at least once a day, Don't miss out.
Comment on atleast 50 posts every day. Read posts fully and post meaningful comments, not single liners. Comments will get you visibility if your posts fail to do so. And they will earn you some $$$ too.
Minnows have 10 upvote per day. Unless you have a slider, your voting should be restricted to only say 8 or 9 upvote per day ( remaining 1-2 vote keep for upvoting yourself on your daily post)
Keep your blog size betwn 800- 1500 words longer blogs will loose attention span. Shorter blogs does not get much upvote (unless it is a photograph)
There are thousands of interesting stuffs out there. One should never be short of any subject or creativity. There is enough and more only if one were to look out.
I have stopped posting since a week as my portable hard disc with 500 GB of photos n data (5 years of professional work data n records)has crashed and I am trying to retrieve my data through professionals. So my focus has changed for the moment. I should be writing regularly as soon as my issues are sorted out.
So guys simple mantra. An apple a day keeps the doctor away. A blog on steemit everyday makes $$$ slowly and steadily all the way. 😊👍

Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

@live2love, bots are not necessary. One can just uncheck the self vote box on the bottom right of the blog while posting.
I don't find any problem if a minnow, self votes say $0.003 or $0.005 to himself while posting a blog. This way they can get something showing up for their blog. I am not saying you should upvote yourself when your single vote is worth say $25 or $50.
If you put say 5 or 6 hours time (whatever time) and effort in creating a blog, you deserve atleast a $0.003 or $0.005 as a self gratifying self payment. It actually breaks the ice and many times set the ball rolling.
I have not heard of any bot created to down vote a self vote. Please give me the link to the same. I don't think it is anybody's business to down vote a self vote.
Are you by any chance saying self voting a comment?. That is unethical and downright wrong. But if you post 1 blog per day and give yourself say $0.003 for your effort, why would any one down vote the blog.
Down vote or flagging down cannot be used for frivolous matters.
There are already upvoting sites for free (steemvoter) and for $ (like randowhale and others). If one can pay to get an upvote then upvoting a tiny amount to yourself is a lesser sin.
Instead, steemit can simply remove the tiny check box near the blog right bottom and get over with this self voting thingy altogether. Why have a bot for doing all these stuffs.
I would like to reiterate something here. steemit itself is giving an option to self upvote ones blog. So creating a bot is like going against the website principles itself. I don't see it happening that way.
Just an update here.
I just saw a whale posted a blog just a while ago. His 100% vote is worth $16+. After a while now he has some double digits upvote,but his payout is around $17. That means virtually the payout is coming from his own single upvote. If he didn't do a self vote,his payout would be $1 or $2 with double digit upvote from others. So here you see, a self vote is creating an updraft for this gentleman which is good. People who have worked hard for a long time and built reputation and SP over a very long time can afford to that. In fact most of the heavy weights are doing it all over in steemit.
So do you still think any bot has the courage to take on the whales here on this self upvoting matter?
Anyway please share here the bot details that you were referring to, above. Thanks.

I'm so glad I saw your comment. I have been trying for 20-30 comments a day and have seen a recommendation for 100! Your 50 idea seems hard but I'll keep working on it.
I did back down to 1-2 posts a day since they are so difficult to create. I'm not trying for 4!
My question to you is about upvoting your own posts. Can you tell your motivation? I've seen people slam others for doing it and I stopped when the default option changed. I heard of the downvote bots too, but they are for people way bigger than me. I think 1000 steem is the limit before you get dinged.
But I really don't know the arguments for or against upvoting yourself. Thanks for all your good advice!

@fitinfun, just a few minutes ago, I came across this blog by a whale (atleast he is a dolphin, if not a whale, I am not sure).
https://steemit.com/selfvoting/@neoxian/self-voting-policy-1-3-to-me-max-and-2-3-rds-for-everyone-else
And neoxian has over 106,000 SP and each of upvote is worth close to $20.
So if he has this 1/3 self voting policy, that itself explains it all.
Please read the blog, he clarifies a few things.
Don't bother much my friend, 2 post per day means 2 self upvote per day out of 10. (Once you get a slider for upvoting in %age of each vote you get to share each upvote over multiple blogs . Then you can upvote any number of blogs by upvoting a small percentage of one full upvote....But for that you need to accumulate some significant no. of SP (to get slider )).
So it is fine 2 self upvote don't harm anyone.
But as I said above, DO NOT UPVOTE your own comment or reply in any blog (either your blog or somebody else's). Self upvoting a comment/reply is unethical and wrong.
But self upvoting your own blog is just about within the realms of ethics because you spent lot of time n effort in creating that blog and a teeny weeny bit of $ in self payment is quite gratifying too and also gets a push so that others take interest and read your blog. It's bit of self gratification and marketing too.
I actually stopped doing that for a while and my blog payment showed $ 0.00 for a long time. It actually demotivated me a lot. So I restarted self voting (only 1 blog per day and rest 9 for other worthy blogs out there). Seeing that small $$ on my payment tab made a whale of good to my self esteem and motivation.
So just go ahead and do it till you get some good traction and following here. Then you take a call. I would say once you reach a reputation of say 60 or above, take a pause and relook at this self voting thingy. Till then you need to promote yourself as much as possible. So go ahead. Don't feel guilty. Even dolphins n whales do it. We all are after all insignificant minnows. Yet !!

@fitinfun, I just upvoted one of your reply above.
Well I just went through your profile. I had to dig deep n long to see your post. You are over resteeming and over upvoting.
Please restrict your upvote to 10 or less every day. More upvote dilute your voting power and finally it means nothing just $0.0 . So if your upvote has to be meaningful please restrict it to 10 or less daily.
Then please do not over resteem. You please visit my profile page and check. You will see my blogs and get to know a bit of me in an instant by my subject. Bcoz I don't resteem. But I tried to check your posts. It is very hard to find one. It is somewhere deep down.
Please understand that you are here to promote your blogs first, then resteem other good blogs. Your blogs should get visibility. That is not happening.
Keep your profile page as clutter free as possible. Resteem only really very very good blogs and not everything that you come across. Keep a limit for resteeming per day too. Keep it less. Get inspired by those blogs, but keep the focus on your blogs. If you want to grow, then you need to focus on your work more and make it more visible.
Everything that you do on this platform can either help you or hold your progress back. You need to diligently think and take every step.
I have written a blog called from resteem to maxsteem. Check my profile page and Please read it. That's a beautiful round about instead of over resteeming.

I will definitely do that and see what you are doing. I really value your help and opinion.
I was usually resteeming two for one as well as noob posts to help me, but in the last couple of days - I had some personal tragedy and did not post at all. My head is not here but I thought I should still do something.
I'm keeping my power between 75%-95% at all times now and all that resteeming did not take me below.
Also - I use fitinfun as my 5th tag on all posts to be able to find myself here. I saw the trouble you mention in the feed and I thought my tag would help that problem. But I definitely am going to your feed right now. Thank you for the upvote :)

Consider me one of those minnows :) I am not whining yet obviously but I will be blunt and truthful; I am from a developing country where data is precious and steady electrical supply is a mirage. I am absolutely here for the money.
However, that's the beauty of the Steemit incentivization structure: to get what I want, I have to level up myself. I have to make better posts (and better comments, hopefully like this one :D ), take better photos, read incisively and actually see what works. Enlightened self-interest taken to a level that becomes selflessness.
7-day limit means I have to post often, quality means I shouldn't post too often, 20-upvote-limit means I can't just spam upvotes every which way forcing me to use or develop an eye for quality content etctera.
It's genius, really. The folks behind Steemit deserve every award there is, including the Nobel Prize and the frickin' Tony Award.
I look forward to succeeding both financially and personally under these exciting conditions.

Thanks for the shout out, @charles1! 💛
Your advice is pretty solid for newbies. It's often said around here that "You'll come for the money, but you'll stay for the community". There are many more ways to measure success than post payout.
There are so many ways to get involved and get quality content noticed! I think making thoughtful, valuable comments on posts that interest you is the best way to get significant exposure, plus you can potentially make more on a meaningful comment than a post!! Not to mention a solid comment section gets an actual community discussion going on topics we want to spend our time and energy thinking about and hashing out.
I think real success on Steemit depends upon shifting one's ideas about what social media is "supposed" to look like, and instead considering what value(s) actually mean. We're trying to build a better world here!

Hey @charles1, excellent post! I am hearing about how some people are using Google ads and other platforms to advertise themselves and gain more readership as well as expose the Steemit community to new participants. Do you have any thoughts on that and if it might be an effective use of limited resources? I would rather spend my money (what little I have for advertising) getting more people to follow my work that are outside the Steemit community and having them join the community and give all of us a boost.

Just a question..
What is your view on investing in bots which up vote your posts?
The delegation amounts are 100 SP and now I am left with very little SP that's use able.. How much SP should I try to keep inside my wallet at all times for it not to have a negative effect on my posts valuations, curation etc..??

Steem power is the main force to earn more here if you upvote your posts or even curation awards-however depends on hw much you can invest in steem however you can work your way up-daily.. Bots ROI is not guranteed however helps you to get the initial boost in order for others to see your contents and maybe upvote if they like it.

Great. Everything isn't for everyone. I guess you don't invest in Bitcoin either since you have no direct contact, phone number and office address for Satoshi Nakamoto.

Hahah @avva Bitconnect is no Bitcoin and Satoshi Nakamoto is a made up name, so do not let yourself be fooled... (I am involved big time in Bitcoin).
In addition, BCC is based on commission Ponzi structure so all the so called big shots (dont wanna mention names) interest is not your well being rather the huge commission they make from signing up people under them. Bitcoin , on the other hand, has monetary and storing value and I can do it without my central government (wow, top secret ..shhhhhh ) knowing that am receiving or sendig money . I am ok with solid top altcoins ( plus some sleeping beauties) and Steem....no no , hell no to BCC however I wish you success my buddy (Lets see first what happens when time to repay all the seed money reach)
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Umm, okay.. you know Satoshi.. and his real name, office address and telephone number and social security number so you can invest with security in Bitcoin. You're the one that stated your criteria. Doesn't matter to me. Most people in Bitconnect are not earning anything from referrals. And so what if they were? Coinbase offers referrals, so does Uber and every app on the planet offers referral pay for referrals -- it's a business model that works whether you like it or not.. Even luxury apartments offers referral pay. I don't know what time period you are living in but referral and promo codes are the RAGE in these times. BUT like I said.. if it's not for you, don't do it. That should give you some rest. You do what you want to do and let other people do the same. No, thank you -- still works in 2017.

To me the number one thing to remember is that there is no social media platform that pays for comments and posts. 1 cent is more useful than 0.
Steemit is not a get rich quick thing for almost anyone but the 1% that have special connections.
If ur not having fun then don't use it. If its all about the money its not gonna be that fun anyways unless u make lots of it.
This is a revolutionary technology that has revolutionary potential. That is worth more than the money as far as I am concerned.

Thanks for your post. I think that the nuclear thing to be retained is that Steemit is about building a new philosophy, community, interaction, creativity, decentralization and honesty-based. And posts like your are important for giving awareness to the new steemians. I go for it! Cheers!

Yes trying to force things to happen will only backfire. I am starting on STEEM to discover new things, engage in topics of interest and meet like minded souls and be part of this blockchain revolution. Hell Yeah if I make a packet from it ever I can write a book, but for now I will just enjoy the journey and if it bears any fruit.. all well and good. I don't want to set myself up for disappointment.

CharlesX to Charles1: I totally agree with you, I always try to improve my posts and Steemit pushed me to think about many topics and to report news for people at the same time, quality is the way to have a good blog and people that will follow and like your content.
New member CharlesX out, thanks!

at the start its better to try to get targeted followers, its really disheartening when you write great post and its seen by only a few people.

Yes I agree hence why you start by focussing on commenting. I am 1 Month here and that was my strategy after 1 week of blogging.

I relate to this article. Thank you @charles1 for this informative content. As a new member of this community I observed that many steemians use this terms "pls upvote" "pls resteem" "pls follow me I follow back" , sadly I adopt to this environment. Because I am new, I don't know what to do, so I observed and apply what they did. When I read this article I realize that it is wrong but I cannot blame my self for doing those technique. I am new and I don't now where to start. From now on, I will change it. I will apply what you said. Thankyou for clearing up my mind and taught me what to do. Thank you so much @ charles1.

I joined steemit to engage with the people and the platform, not even knowing there was an earning opportunity here. 'feeling dumb' This information is much appreciated as a newbie to steemit to get me started on the right foot.
