RE: "Introduce Yourself"- Zoe Williamson
Hi there! I've been on Steemit the past few hours and I have a few questions:
1)Is leaving your money on Steemit safe?
I understand after 7 days of making a post you can get Steem and Steem dollars. I'd like to convert that money into Bitcoin, however the two exchanges are too busy for me to signup into them. I'm just wondering if I receive money whether I should IMMEDIATELY put my Steem into a wallet, or if it's fine to stay in my Steemit account.
2)What was the most proficient way to make money for you on Steemit?
Was it constantly voting or commenting? Or constantly making posts? Or some other way.
I hope you don't mind answering those questions. You clearly know what you are doing since you've made $1,100 USD on this site.
Thanks! @entrepreneur916
Not a problem, if we help each-other out I am sure we will be successful here Zoe.
1 There are a few things you can do with the revenue you make here. Once the payout hits you have to redeem your SBD (Steem Dollars) to your "wallet", you can either purchase STEEM and exchange it for whatever crypto you fancy, or keep it in your wallet where it will earn interest and you can buy products, services (i.e bot services), or send to other people. Lastly, you can buy STEEM power, which adds to your influence and increase the values of your upvotes.
Depending on how much you want to commit to this, and how much you want to influence the platform will dictate what you want to do. Personally, on my more random posts I "Power Up" meaning all of the rewards from that post goes to Steem Power so I gain more influence. My large posts "research papers and articles" go a 50/50 split, so I can use bots yo upvote and make more money on other posts, while enjoying the increased Steem Power.
Steem operates off the blockchain and totally secure ,and frankly with the explosive growth and a big launch coming, I think Steemit may be one of the best best in crypto besides Ethereum, which was personally one of my most profitable investments to this day.
2 Creating a following and networking is by far the first thing you need to do. Get the attraction of larger users and get their support. One large user has the voting power of tens of thousands of other users. Once you have this greater visibility, then spend your time creating quality content.
WOW! Thanks so so so much for the informative words! I'm new to Steemit, but if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask, because maybe I'll know answers as I get more familiar with the site.
No problem. By the way, @bunnymoney is my wife. We were just talking about you. All three of us are gonna team-up and rule 2018!
No way! HAHA yes! Bring it on Steemit 2018!
