Hi, Wolf. Thanks for the offer. I'll keep it in mind. I usually do pretty well figuring things out for myself. The main thing is how to cashout. I've looked up info. I've never used any form of cryptocurrency. I'm used to having either direct deposit or Paypal that is linked to our checking. I'm used to it being very streamlined. Are there groups that connect people, such as blog owners, looking for writers? I didn't come on here for that, but, I'm guessing that sort of thing does develop.
I am pretty much the same way . The learning curve was a very steep here for me . and I'm still having problems with the ins and outs . I do not know of the blog owners looking for writers and do not want to speculate . the chat rooms i have found to be self serving . that was the reason for the one I mention . you don't have to give anything you just take the information . unfortunately it is almost a requirement to get help somewhere . this is a platform that involves money so you do have many scams
I have not cashed out so I would have to ask in that room .
I am here if you need help . I can researcher if you want . I believe it would be a 3 step process
The instructions I found said three steps. There were several steps within the steps. I like just clicking Redeem (or whatever the option is) & it transfers to PayPal or DD. How long have you been here? As I mentioned in the post, an acquaintance told me about this & I thought I'd give it a try. My husband & I both have health issues & are somewhat disabled. We work online. Projects are sporadic. We've mainly focused on customer support & data entry, as, that was our background, especially, mine. We've done other things available for independent contractors. I wanted to get more serious about my writing. So far, most of the sites I've found, even those for beginners seem to want more experience, including, writing samples. Not usually my style of writing either.
Its a good platform for writing . It is the internet and every post has a link . As such the comment section is used for minor comments/replies . Not for conversation . It is open for all to see forever . So getting into personnel things , I would not really reveal to much . That is why I opened a controlled place to discuses any subject . With that said :
I am a disabled veteran 100% . over the last couple of years was not able to be on the internet so this is a learning period . So you have me beat as far as knowledge in that area , but you see I do have an individual that answers all my questions in the other place . LOL
I understand where you are at but not to sure what you are expecting here . The sky is the limit with commitment that is true . but you cant do it alone or you can with a hard road . you have a good background for this platform . You write what you want when you want .
I started here on 1 Feb . I learned a lot about the platform . The good , bad , and the ugly . The in's and out's So to speak . Good guys from the bad .
read this post then read between the lines . from 9 days ago
Steemit so far .. Question , Opinion , Facts , Concerns , Conclusions
I believe people should go into things with open eyes , its easier to succeeds that way . I know that I am very frank i hope I have not discouraged you not my intent .
I'll be here if you need me
Thanks for telling me a little about yourself & the advice. I'm a fairly private person, so, I only share what I want. I have to feel more comfortable with & connected to someone to open up more. Even then, it depends on who it is. In the 18 years I've been on different forums/sites & I've found that most prefer to exchange messages in the various discussions, until, they're ready to go private. Some never want to. You haven't discouraged me. I believe, even if someone has a strong following, they probably couldn't pay all of their monthly expenses with just this alone. There's few things online you can do that with. That's why they always suggest diversifying.
That's what I was referring to when I said "you have a good background for this platform " its far greater then mine . I only been on a platform for a month . never even used facebook . So that puts me at a disadvantage in formatting a post . I don't go into chat rooms . I don't like them to much BS . You will find that these people have money in there account /wallets and are doing well . Its all public knowledge . the newer people are of course different and the fact that Steem has dropped to $2 . If you look in my wallet you will see someone gave me 250 Steem to use . at the time that was worth $1k to them . there are people good people who help other out . asking nothing in return . then of course you have the opposite
@imaginedragon is a woman who is a writer . Family woman who just started . you might want to look at some of her work .
I don't like chat rooms either. I prefer discussions on forums/groups. I do like to get to know people one on one, but, not everyone is comfortable messaging in private. I'm glad to know there are people willing to help others out here. I see that in my volunteering at the animal shelter & the pet groups I belong to on Facebook. So often when money is involved, people are looking out for their own best interests. This is run differently than other sites. Many of them have buyers & sellers. The upside, you can build a relationship. The downside, it may take awhile to get there & even have anyone make an order initially. It seems much more simple here. It would be, if everyone voted more often. We'd all be able to do decently.
at our level you can only vote 6-8 times and if I vote to much on your comments i will take most of your curation reward and i don't want to do that
the meet up is a good idea if you can go
I think your voting to much . your vote is 0 .so stop until you get more SP . DO NOT vote for me . its hurting you . but thank you and don't do it again LOL
