Alternatives to Steemit.com Signup!

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Have you been struggling to get your Steem account created? Here are two account creation services that I hope are really helpful for you to get a Steem account created fast!

1. https://steemit.com/pick_account is the official method to get an account and is totally free! I recommend trying this several times before using any others!

2. https://anon.steem.network/ by @someguy123 is nearly instant and only costs 6 Steem to use which I believe is returned in vests.

anonsteem

3. https://v2.steemconnect.com/accounts/create allows using Steemconnect to set the account up yourself as long as you have the Steem to fund it!

Thank you for reading this post and I hope it was helpful! I was going to offer my own service but with now being aware of these existing services, I think you will find them much better than what I can do for you!

Love,

Jerry Banfield

Sort:  

Instead of trying to fleece unsuspecting, potential new users with $50 sign-ups and $180 witness tutorials, why not share the already existing services that do both things for 10 STEEM and free, respectively?

Are your post rewards simply not enough to sustain your stockpiles of oatmeal and peanut butter? Are you not feeling wealthy enough today?

Someone dances sexy ...

I dance like nobody is watching, cause nobody is
also I prefer twerking these days ;)

Amazing movements

It costs money to buy a witness campaign.

I wish i could resteem a comment.

You can simply make a new post and paste a screenshot of it or quote teh comment etc, maybe give context and show the link of whereits from, and viola u have almost resteemd a comment

Updated as requested and yes with all the peanut butter today I am feeling very wealthy indeed! I appreciate you reading the posts closely enough to remember a detail like that and make a comment about it!

It doesn't require close reading at all. And your "updating" has no effect on how you're perceived...other than making you look even more foolish.

well I did get a lot of dm's from some wishing to remain anon who were not pleased and some took the huge leap to even upvote my own op/ed post which I rarely do one like that.......but for all us PLEBIANS who put in a lot of effort in content and curation and such we don't like feeling we are being "SteemFailures"

Maybe he needs to add some Stawberry Jam to his coffers!

I wonder what @berniesanders will have to say about this post.

I'm waiting for his reaction...

That's me right now... with the popcorn lol

I cant believe people are actually upvoting and promoting this kind of thing. Its sad to see the loss of decency just to chase after a few dollars.

There's a solution here:

Make a note of who upvotes these posts. Then, stop supporting those users.

I just concentrate on the top 10 since they have the most influence on his post. The only ones that are somewhat surprising are @sweetsssj and @teamsteem since they have such a good reputation on Steemit.

Sometimes reputations aren't what they seem, especially for the latter user that you mentioned.

It might be possible that @jerry.. to be on their upvote bot list.

I wish but i testing curator rewards...If i do not make much well.i will have to unfollow some people...

Yup, this is absolutely brutal. Took back my witness vote as well. It is clear that Banfield only cares about the money here and not the betterment of steemit. What is really shitty is seeing some of the automatic whale upvotes on a post like this.

i always had a bad feeling about this jerrybanfield guy. After this post I know why. Him being sneaky and updating the post makes it even worse..

Hi most respected sir. i need your little help. I want to learn earning method on steemit from you. I belong to a poor family. I shall be thankful to you for this kindness.

I've just made an updated post about AnonSteem, with information about how to buy cryptocurrency, how account recovery works, and other useful tips.

AnonSteem is fully automated, you will have your account within 5 minutes of entering your username.

Perfect I just added the image and a direct link at the beginning of the post to encourage users to try this first!

So your service would only be for people that don't have any crypto yet, but are so excited about steemit and so confident they will make back the $50 dollars that they go the route of steemfail. I would guess that they will quickly realize that it is not as easy to make money as they thought and quite possibly never recoup their loss.

Also why are you using the delegation route to create accounts? That is the expensive way. Are you ignorant of that or deceiving people?

Maybe you should've opened a fiat exchange buying steem requires buying bitcoins a hassle in my opinion

But..But..I wanted to pay 50 Steem...

I don't know why the big guys don't consider flaging this post.
did he really kissed all the ass there is on this blockchain ?

I know right!

^^ It's also automated, near-instant and secure..

this is insulting to all witnesses and those vested in the community, to name it "SteemFAIL"? you are pissing on the people who are filling your pockets, AnonSteem is already around and run by a good person who wouldn't name it FAILsteem and charge 50 bucks

Totally agree, the name SteemFail disgust me. It's wonderful platform that should be promoted anywhere in the world. And you were doing a great job for the community. Now reading this it actually starts pissing me off. SteemFail seriously ? I mean with all good intentions you are creating a so i understand the charging part other then its over prices but, how in earth did you ever though that the name SteemFail is going to contribute to you and the Steemit platform ?
If some one is new and unaware off Steemit yet sees this ... SteemFail. That gives a real negative and false input..
And from all people around the world jerry i though you would have seen that the name is bad for the platform. Support Steemit and pick another name !

Easy enough I removed the mention of the domain in the service post! I hoped it would be easy to remember.

Thanks @gyzimo for your work creating @curiosity bot that lets us send and receive tips in SBD in the steemspeak.com discord chat!

Thank you I just added that link into the post at the very beginning!

Ausbit, AnonSteem service is better...
paying $50 for an account which you can literally get is for free is nuts... And all this for getting the right username....
On top of that, he is asking for 10 -20 steem as tip....
LOL... Jerry, you should consider this...

AnonSTEEM is made by myself, not @ausbitbank :)

Sorry about that... :P changed it..

this is not going over well, at all......no joke manish

I don't think am joking... The autocorrect typed "yours" instead of "the" which changed the meaning of the entire sentences...

Stop spamming. No one will help you if you do this and you will destroy your account!

Thank you I added that in the post also to give another option!

We were expecting you bernie!
At least one guy how's ass wasn't kissed!

That is very rude. Jerry does a lot for the community and it is not fair You come here talking with him that way. And for all the matter it is rude to talk with any person in that manners!

It doesn't cost 6 steem even, you get it back as vested SP that you own.

Thanks for the heads up Tuck!

Here's a tip, stop spamming.

First of All, Thanks for the info @jerrybanfield. I like your posts, they are very informative.

What about the https://anon.steem.network/ service, I guess it allows steemit account creation with fee that's much lower than $50.

I assume you are using steemit api to create these accounts, and a bot for automation of these tasks. And I believe, as of now, creating steemit accounts don't cost more than 6 steem. Have a look..

Correct me if I am wrong.

I wish best of luck for the whole steemit community. That's it!

This comment has received a -16.67 % downvote from @meanpeoplesuck thanks to: @blacklist-a.

Calling shame on this post now that he edited out the shame is pointless.
Don't forget though...the blockchain never does
Edited.

when you are making thousands off of a system you then spit on and are a witness guess what? your mask slipped off

This kind of poorly thought out crap making the trending page everyday is a steemfail.

If the steemit.com account creation has failed and you did not get your account you can use something else.There is a website where you can make the account yourself with a small fee. Guess how much is that fee? 10 STEEM!!!

The website is called AnonSteem
AnonSteem allows you to purchase new STEEM accounts using Bitcoin or Litecoin.
You can pay with Litecoin,Bitcoin and steem and you don't need you phone number,or any details.
I sugest you pay with Litecoin as it's faster with lower transaction fees.

Don't pay 50 STEEM !

Or if you want to help a friend you can make him an account using a new tool from Busy.org with only 6 STEEM !

Go to https://v2.steemconnect.com/accounts/create
Choose account name .Will turn green if available
Save the password
Go to https://steemd.com/ and find the current value for account_creation_fee.Multiply the value by 30.Now the creation fee is 0.200 so it will be 6 STEEM.
Make sure you have the STEEM in your wallet
Connect with your own steemit account
That's it.You got your friend a new account .EASY and FAST.

Or a faster way with Steempy -steem-python:
steempy newaccount accountname --account fishmon

Jerry you proved once again that you are here just for the money.I assume you will lose about 10% of your big followers after this post.
At least you could have done is mentioning the above alternatives.

Boosting this comment for visibility

This is the last straw @jerrybanfield, I'm extremely disappointed by this. First when you started witnessing you were selling FREE information for setting up a witness for $180! Now you want to rip off people by creating accounts for them for $50!!!! Anonsteem costs 10 STEEM, Steemconnect costs 6 STEEM. Why they hell are you scamming people? You just lost my vote.

Guys, do not get swindled by this service, it's a rip-off.

That fee is too big, no offense.

This is an absolutely terrible idea. Charging people over 30 steem to create an account that is free. Jerry's greed comes shining through in this post. How are we supposed to encourage people to start using the site when one of the main influences out there has created a service charging 50 steem for something that should be free. If people are very desperate to get an account set up go visit https://anon.steem.network/ and get yours made for 10 steem. this is brutal for the development of steem

Nobody will join if they have to pay. Steemit will become stagnant, and worse it will lose users over time.

This has nothing to do with steemit.com. It is about Jerry's website.

1000% percent agree.
