RE: July Bench-marking Report - How Posts Really do on Steemit – Steemit-Business-Intelligence

in #stats7 years ago

Hey Paulag, great work again. I totally agree that setting and managing expecations is key, in many areas not just Steemit. So most newcomers should be looking for anything up to $1 for a post to begin with.

I wonder how many would actually starting out here if they were told, 'so for the first year, and maybe more', you're going to be on about a dollar an hour, ok? :)

Up-voted and resteemed!

LOL. In fairness it's at least a bit better than that. But maybe we could use that to break the perception that Steem can be like a job for everyone. It can be like a job for some, but not a huge portion of the users. I think most people should be thinking of Steemit as Reddit with small financial perks, not a source of serious income.

I realize my recent post is kind of contrary to that...

Yep agreed. This is a blog site, you might make a bit of money if you find a niche or produce original content. Or if you just waded in with $20000 when Steem was dirt cheap! haha :)

Nice to see some conversation and banter in the thread. For me at least it has been better than that per post. Every ones expectations are different. and remember in some part of the would $1 and hour will make a very big difference

yes, that's a bit more like it $ wise. And you are right, $1 an hour should not be shunned.
