Making it here in Steemit isn't an easy task neither is it an impossible task. I know we all joined Steemit with very high expectations. Thinking that all we have to do is create posts, upvote, comment and just sit back and watch our dollars grow, but in life things doesn't just work that way. After creating products you need to market, promote or advertise it. Else no one would know such a great product exists.

Working online isn't a quick way to earn money if you're lazy. You'll agree with me that the online market is so wide and competitive. Hence it's not easy to get an audience to follow up with as you're not the only one there. So to maintain your audience you need to give them the best they won't find elsewhere. Before steemit came into existence, there were other ways one can earn some few cents online.

One could either earn some cents by completing surveys, offers, promoting products (affiliate marketing) and maybe earn more from Google Adsense by blogging or vlogging i.e creating contents or videos. From my experience as a tech blogger I can tell that the fact that people sit at home and earn doesn't mean it's an easy way to earn.

But all thanks to @ned (the founder of this wonderful platform "Steemit") for making it easier for us to earn by sharing our ideas with the world.

Although it's been made easy but we still have some roles to play. Else our efforts would all just go in vain. In an attempt to increase our steemit income we engage in so many activities like vote Begging, follow Begging and spamming of groups with our Steemit links. Yet we get little or no result from it.

Have you ever wondered why?

Well, this question troubled me for a couple of days, before It finally occurred to me that the way I do go and drop my link(s) in groups without bothering to check what the other author's post is about is. Is the same way others drop their links not bothering to look at mine let alone upvoting it.

So as a result of this I created a facebook group with a difference. A group which made the engagement in other member's post a priority. So as to achieve this goal I added some simple rules to mine.

Updated Rules Of The Group "Steemit Upvotes":

1. Members are to submit just one post in a day. The reason for this rule is to prevent spamming and keep the group neat.

2. Members are to resteem any post they find interesting in the group before submitting their links for approval. The same will be done to yours if you create good contents with Cathy titles.

3. Members are to submit just their links without any introduction/explanation or spammy phrases like vote for vote, follow for follow etc.

4. Don't share one post twice, as we only need fresh contents.

Admins and Moderators Activities:

* All posts submitted to the group would be crosschecked by the admins and moderators before being approved into the group.

* The comments section of every post is turned off to avoid spamming.

* Posts violating the rules will be deleted after warning the author.

Please feel free to Upvote if you like this, resteem if you think your followers will and follow @edywill to get facts, motivation, and crypto-updates news.
