Steemit Is Not A Tool To Get Rich Quick

Just like another steemian, I was brought to this platform with a doctrine how to get easy money. But as the time flies I realize its not just about money. I mean, I know I still hope to get a lot of upvote and get a lot of money, who doesn't.
But steemit really changes the way I think. Right now I always think about what to write and how to write a good article.

There are several things you need to do before you start to earn a lot of money. Even when I don't even make a lot of money yet but I start to think about how to make this community to last. If we only think about how to get money then I believe this community won't last longer, because to start something big we need to take a small step at a time.

Create A Good Article

I think the most reasonable thing to do first is to make a good article. Most newbie who just joined steemit have this problem. They always complain that they don't know how to write. I mean, basically steemit is a blogging platform, like it or not of course you have to write.
Even when this is a personal blog doesn't mean you can write anything without concerning about what another steemian think. To catch steemian attention you have to write something unique or useful or even crazy if i can say. But still, it has to be your own writing. Curators will only vote your article if they think it valuable, because basically that what they do.

Make Friends

Like another social media platform, in steemit you have to gain more follower so your article would be more visible. There are several ways how to make friends in steemit. You can just comment on someone article or join a group chat.

But there's some unspoken rules on how to comment on someone article. You can't just drop a comment like 'nice post' and such. Because it's definitely you didn't read the article. You should really read it and understand it so you could give a proper comment. When you seriously comment on someone article they would reply to your comment more seriously. That way you just make a connection to the author.

About joining a group chat, if the group have rules you should follow the rules. Read the rules before you start anything, you can't just join a group chat and post your link there. Unless it is a promotion link group, but it won't make you have any friends.
Join a group and have a conversation. If you don't know how to start just ask a question about anything you don't understand about steemit. There are more people who willing to answer your question.

Join A Community

This is the most easy way to make friends and to share knowledge about steemit. You could join a community close enough for you to drive and meet the real people to ask or just hangout with them.
If you can't find any community nearby you should consider to build one. Find some steemian who live nearby and build a community. By the time more steemian will join your community, or you could ask your friends and relatives to join steemit and join your community.

I believe if you really active in steemit you would gain more than you can imagine. And if you really serious you can go to steemfest this november in Portugal. Maybe you could meet some whales and get some advices from them, must be cool.

If you really consider to go to steemfest check out these links below. I don't know is it still available but at least you could find something.

Word up

Thank you @breezy5422

"Steemit Is Not A Tool To Get Rich Quick" - says who? If you are in for blogging you might consider blogger, wordpress or medium. Steemit is for those who want to make a living or a "little fortune" through the Blockchain industry and thousand are doing it daily. What about you @usammiismi? Doesn't the knowledge that your posts are making you money make you feel better, useful, appreciated and good about blogging on Steemit than anywhere else?

That what i thought. If you could get rich quick with steemit. Please teach me. I wanna get rich quick too. Who doesnt?
The point is you cant just write things because you will get reward, if you write some stupid article maybe you will get upvote but they wont coming back to you unless you are famous.

Yes, there is a lot of junk content on Steemit and they are earning a lot of dollars but who cares? That is how a free market model operates. If people love the junk contents, can you blame those who create it to need demand while cashing in on it?
The point is that Steemit is a place to make money from your contributions, whether people make money it by junk content or not, the market should decide who gets paid.

Even if it junk content, if you didnt have connection you wont earn lots of bucks.
You can try to make a new account and the first thing you post is a junk content, if you could gain thousands bucks just from that without doing what i pointed out, then you could get rich quick.

Good reminder...but I still want to get rich. Haha.

Me too. But because im not a whale or famous i think i need to work harder at first.
If i could get rich QUICK, im blessed.

I like this post. It is very useful for us. Thanks.

Im glad if you could gain something from my post. Thank you

As I am new to steemit myself,I found your post very useful indeed,and I woluld definetly reccomend anyone new to steemit to give it a read.
Much appreciated,keep up the good work

Thank you. I really apreciate it.
I wish i could always provide a good article.

I try to write 3 posts a day. I have a lot of content that was on Youtube and Vimeo, That I am introducing to Steemit, I struggle with how to introduce it and how much to write. Thank you for your insight.

Its great if you active on youtube and vimeo, so you could bring more people to join steemit and you could build your own connection grow faster.

Really good and frank article... obviously everyone is on here to make money to some degree because otherwise you'd be posting somewhere else, but the great thing like you say is that it makes you think "what shall I write next?!" ... it thankfully makes us think more!

That what makes us grow. We wont have so much thought if we write on another platform. But in steemit we were forced to think more than what we already did.

Exactly, it's beautiful... it's not just sharing cute pics of dogs which is great! I feel like I want to write worthy content... can't wait to get home from work tonight to do so.

Good luck then 😊

Thanks :)

#awesome post man! #steemit is such a great way to make #new #friends! Keep it up!

Thank you 😊

Yes sir..We are learning everyday ..this makes man different from others animal ..Isnt it?

Indeed

I Like You're Post @usammiismi

Thank you for your time @foarsyad

Pemikiran ini sangat membantu member SteeMit semua, terutama member yang baru bergabung.
Bravo!

Terima kasih @barvon

Very well put. There are so many posters that are either plagiarizing or trolling upvotes with shitposts. Genuinely good posts really make this site worthwhile.

It's awesome to follow and be followed by those that crank out quality content day in and day out.

But since more people join because the reward they forget to keep the quality of an article. They just post things more just to get more.

Many new people think its just a get in quick and earn big bucks. But it's much more. I think of this like a long term business. I'm having fun everyday and learning new things. If it even pays me during the time, thats great! Thank you for your thoughts and insights.

You right, if you could build connection your 'business' will grow by itself.

Great article ! I resteemed it

Thank you so much @inspiringty

great way to put it down

While i have things in mind i think i should write it. 😊

benar sekali @usammiismi tidak ada orang yang langsung menjadi kaya tanpa ada usaha yang keras

Mari sama-sama berusaha belajar menulis dengan benar.
Tolong di ingatkan jika ada yang salah @jodipamungkas

siap kita semua sama-sama belajar kok @usammiismi

Bottom line is it takes hard work.

Indeed. Thats the point. You cant reach the top without climbing.

nice posts my friend, thanks for sharing information

Youre wellcome 😊

saya sepakat dengan dengan anda @usammiismi, bahwa di steemit bukan hanya untuk mencari kaya, paragaraf terakhir dari artikel ini sangat mencerminkan fenomena yang terjadi saat ini. saya sendiri sangat sedikit informasi yang saya dapatkan tentang steemit, kode etik secara tidak lagsung akan menjadikan setiap individu yang terlibat di steemit menjadi lebih bisa menghargai individu lainnya. Terus berkarya Salam@muammar
