RE: Why 1000+ followers means nothing?
Well, congratulations anyway! ;)
Wow, you're pretty big on Behance. I've never been very active there.
I'm inviting my Instagram followers to join Steemit as well.
Seeing my followers count going up means more people joining this platform, so in that respect it does mean something.
I hope this platform will continue to grow. I really enjoy getting in touch with others here :)
Haha! Thank you! Yeah, this is something unique Steemit can give! I never saw any other social network were people write big comments. And I feel I found much more friends here than in any other place in the net :)
Why you don't use Behance, Flo? All my foreign clients keeps coming from there. Once you are featured at the main page all the advertising world will know about you! But remember they like to feature "projects". This means you should put 10-15 illustrations together in one post there.
Creating projects is a good point. Do you think that numbers also present the illusion of success? I was told that there is the theory to collaborate with those within your social status. Meaning if you have 1000 followers someone on with 20 followers is in a different league. This culture seems to rule the social media outlet. Steemit would therefor be in the same arena. Or am I not understanding the model enough yet. Thanks for the post.
Yes, this is like a famous brand name. For example if I put the Microsoft logo on my illustration then most of the people who are not in arts will just say "Wow!" even if I will create weakest work in my life. So for that reason numbers works. And for Behance I guess follower numbers may mean a lot to the clients when they are searching for an exectuor of their idea.
For me personally it was never some barrier. If I saw someone's good profile with small amount of followers and likes I've understood that this person is just created the profile or don't know how to develop it and I am trying to help such a people usually giving some advices on that because the world should know them.
Well, you've actually sparked my interest! Perhaps I should give Behance a try. Maybe I can use my Instagram network as well to grow there.
I'm gonna look into it in a week or two. Thanks for the advice!
Don't forget to tell me once you are there :)
I will!
