RE: Is Steemit worth it?
People talk about this site like its some sort of easy money machine, but it's really not. If you work hard and build your brand sure sometimes you get rewarded with a nice prize, but for the most part people don't see huge rewards. Because many were going around touting how easy it was to make money, these new users feel cheated. So you have to make sure if you choose to recommend it to your youtube followers, that you do it the correct way! Put it into a similar perspective like I did, any reward anyone gets is a bonus over what could be gotten anywhere else, because there for most users the reward is zero. Users should expect small rewards when they are new, that is how it works (and its exactly how it should be), your following will be small. If you post content on youtube, you don't get paid anything unless you get views. You can make the greatest video in the world but if nobody knows about it or you, you don't get rewarded. The same can be said for here really. As people become more well known, their rewards grow.
sounds reasonable man. Very similar to youtube in fact. I am just not extremely familiar with crypto-currencies.
