Not this time...

I will do my best to sound like educated person and I hope you won't struggle much reading it :)

INTRODUCTION

line2.png

This post is directed mostly to those of you dear readers, who already know me and my work here on Steemit and who are supporting my efforts.

In my previous publication, I pointed out that each week I'm trying to promote a few publications created by authors which I found valuable, engaging and supportive towards others. I also pointed out that I'm focusing on content related to my main interests (blockchain, AI etc).
(link: https://steemit.com/steemit/@crypto.piotr/great-results-and-some-disappointments)

I promote chosen publications by sending memos once-twice a week to everyone I know or I follow (as long as the person didn't ask me to stop doing that) with short description and link to the promoted post. Unfortunately this so far is the most efficient system of keeping in touch with others on Steemit.

RESULTS

(pic: www.seek.com.au)And it does work quite well so far.

I bet TOGETHER we are the reason why some of those authors are still around and didn't quit Steemit.

The downside is that I've lost several followers who didn't feel pleased to receive my weekly memos.

Just last week we've managed to support few amazing content creators like @edgarare1, @reverseacid, @roleerob, @guysellars and others. I would love to present you to few examples of our achieved results (just have a look at ammount of comments, which reflect some solid engagement):

You guys should be proud of yourself. I surely am. We reached those results together and we're just warming up :)

Those are results of our work as very healthy community.

DECENTRALIZED STRUCTURE

line2.png

(pic: hackernoon.com)There are quite a number of communities around Steemit and most of them use Discord/Telegram or sometimes other unfortunate platforms to promote their members.

Like Twitter / Facebook which I'm not biggest fan.

Obviously I respect what most of those community leaders are trying to achieve. But ....

So far my strong impression is that most communities I came across on Steemit have VERY CENTRALIZED STRUCTURE.

What I'm trying to achieve is very different. Instead of being "center" of community I rather focus on helping other potential community leaders grow. And introduce them to each other hoping that we will learn to work together.

Without anyone "in charge" and telling people what to do. Will my vision work? I strongly believe it will. And today you can help me to reach those goals. How? Please contiune reading :)

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

line2.png

Hope you enjoyed that little "introduction". Now it's time to ask you for little favor. Indeed very little. Stay with me 2 more minutes and continue reading :)

Sending all those memos and setting up small steem-bounties on selected post is not actually free :) I'm spending average 10-15 steem a week and I cannot do that for very long time. My limited resources will not last forever

I decided that I will keep posting one publication a week and ALL REWARDS earned from this post will be used in following week on promoting other people content (memos / steem-bounties). Would you help me to make things happen? :)

I would like you, dear reader, to consider setting auto-vote (with preferably 100%) voting power on my account. Again, I'm posting only once a week so I will not drain your voting power.

https://steemvoter.com/

That would obviously help me cover those mentioned costs and allow me to continue my mission :)

You can also help me by resteeming this post :). I would definetly appreciate it.

Yours,
Piotr

Sort:  

I always love when users promote content and other good work on steem!

where can you set someone on autovote without using a bot?
why do you not simply resteem all the content you want to have upvoted? I would read everything you resteemed.. the messages by SBD transfer are ways more work than just scrolling trough my feed...

Check out https://www.Steemauto.com they are fantastic! You can set someone to an autovote easily through their "fanbase" option.

Thanks @hotsauceislethal for that suggestion.

Appreciate it a lot.

Hello my friend @crypto.piotr

Thanks a lot for your mention, this is amazing...!!

First of all, I want to congratulated you for all the amazing job you are doing here in this beautiful community..!!!

Your post is very clear for me, So, nothing to add for now ... Just continues working helping people because it will bring a good future for sure... Not just for you, this will be for all the writers you are promoting their work.

About steemvoter:

Consider it done my friend, 100% upvote is nothing... Let´s do it...!!

Disculpa que te pregunte a ti, es por el idioma. ¿No es igual transferir el monto del voto al monedero?

No es igual. Lo que hace Steem-voter es en automático un voto en un porcentaje que uno decida hacer para un post. No es para transferir dinero a la wallet. Espero que te allá ayudado a salir de la duda @mllg ... si necesitas algo más te puedo ayudar a traducir cuando guste ...

Posted using Partiko iOS

Disculpa, que te moleste de nuevo. Con la traducción me defiendo, pero los movimientos en la plataforma me cuestan un poco más. Mi pregunta era en cuanto al beneficip para el destinatario del voto, pues el wallet le otorga directamente el 100%, mientras que los votos pasan por el filtro de distribución, plataforma, SP y SBD.

Como operación, para mí es mucho más fácil utilizar el wallet, aunque entiendo que no se contabiliza como voto.

Si eres tan amable y me asesoras sobre como utilizar el Steem-voter te lo agradecería mucho. Así, además de cumplir con @crypto.piotr, aprendería algo nuevo en la plataforma.

Agradecida contigo por tu gentileza.

Hola @mllg gracias por escribir y con gusto te puedo ayudar.

Primero abre el link de Steem-voter .. ya estando en la página elige “create a free account.”

Dando clic en “create a free account.” Te conectas directamente con “Steemconnect” es totalmente seguro la conexión.

Segundo; ya estando conectada das click en “Dashboard” y de lado derecho eliges “manage streams”

Tercero: eliges “create stream” y en “target account” escribes el nombre de la cuenta votara en automático en este caso será crypto.piotr , después en “voting Power” eliges 100% los demás de queda así.

Y para terminar das click en “Save stream” de lado derecho superior.

Espero haberte ayudado.. Suerte.

Listo!

@crypto.piotr @edgarare1 muchas gracias

Great initiative. You have my vote.

Are you back to Steemit @nicholas83? After 9 months being away?

Welcome back :)
Yours, Piotr

Yeah. I am easing my way back in.

I resteem, on occasion, but I really do not think it helps a whole lot, maybe a little bit, however on the other side of the coin is if a person resteems to much and subjects I do not enjoy, then it is likely I will stop following them. This has happened in the past, and will I am sure happen in the future. I mostly follow people for what they have to say. So a few resteems a day fine, more than 3 though unless they are on topic of what I follow (such as a tag that interest me and I support), then it is likely if that continues I will stop follow and just add them to my "don't forget to check on occasion" list.

Now something on a weekly basis or every two or three days similar to this post and, as many curation trails ( ie: curie, and others), do would be a good thing. The problem would be the finding, formatting and making of the post, and hoping those highlighted post do not time out real soon. This would allow your feed to stay your feed and not become just another resteem feed, it would alert those that follow you that you have found three or four post that you thought were thought provoking,

Tagging all your followers in the post however would not really work, and would not really be needed, if they look at their feed they will/may see your post.

I have no real issue with the wallet notification, but I do understand where some would have issue with it, if it came to often. So a weekly "round-up" post or two, might be a way to to. maybe a get ready for the weekend Friday post, and a Monday after the weekend post of what you round.

Dear @bashadow

Sorry for such a late reply BIG THX to you for your kind comment. I would like to thank you for your comment.

Also I just noticed that you resteemed my latest post. Appreciate it :)

if a person resteems to much and subjects I do not enjoy, then it is likely I will stop following them

I agree. That's why I keep my notes and I've few groups of "followers". Tech people and those who are not tech :)

This way Im avoiding sending memos about blockchain to people who do not seem to care. Sometimes I still make mistakes but I'm getting good at targeting audience. I'm also trying to engage and comment at least once or twice publications of those who are most supportive (to avoid giving impression that it's one way street).

And most of all - I'm sending only one memo a week. Anyway, after all .. just like you said - if you wont enjoy then you will stop.

Tagging all your followers in the post however would not really work,

Absolutely great point. In my opinion tagging / mentioning users do not work at all.

Thx again for great comment.

Yours
Piotr

I love your intent to promote work from worthy Steemians, but I have my doubts about the memo approach being shored up. It seems like an awful lot of time and money that could both be better spent.

Someone above mentioned your resteeming, as I will do for this post. I think that’s a better idea. Your own weekly post can be about the post(s) you resteemed that week, so that anyone who missed it can access it there. You can even tag people in that weekly post the same as in the wallet, only for free.

Just a thought about free approaches that would be sustainable even if you had nothing to spend.

Dear @indigoocean

It seems like an awful lot of time and money that could both be better spent.

Those money are not dissapearing. All those little steem is ending up in wallets of other users. Users I know and I engage with. Surely it does take some time.

Someone above mentioned your resteeming,

Indeed. I replied to this comment and I mentioned you. Perhaps you can check out and share your opinion. I always like to hear reasons of those who do not agree with my methods.

Hi mate,

I'll try to be brief, first of all Your English is very well written so , 5 stars for that, second, Your dedication to the community is commendable, another 5 stars, third, I do appreciate the memo notification (yet another 5 stars) and can't understand the loss of followers, since it's easy to "unsubscribe" if one wants to..

Maybe You could create a discord server for announcements, or try to have a channel in some server already in existence, both announcing and promoting the message You send out through memos, I know it's outside steemit, but it could work, and You could use memos as a last resort if something happens to block other forms of communication, that way I do believe You would spend a bit less and even get to a broader audience (maybe), it's just a suggestion from the top of my head..

Anyway, definitely an upvote from me, resteemed and thought I already had You in my auto vote list but didn't, just added You to my fanbase at steemauto with 100% upvote, last thing, continue all the awesome work You've been doing, sharing and caring, engaging, helping others out is pretty cool of You, thank You very much, wish You, Your wife and all of Yours all the best.

Cheers mate
Cy

Dear @cyberspacegod

Thank you for your amazing comment and your feedback. I absolutely appreciate it.

Maybe You could create a discord server for announcements

That's the thing. I'm on Steemit because it represents what I belive in. It's build on STEEM, decentralized blockchain without central authorities.

So my goal is to promote myself only within STEEM ecosystem. I'm planning to check out some dapps in nearest future and explore other ways.

I also replied to other user who mentioned resteeming as way of promoting content. Perhaps you can check out and share your opinion. I always like to hear reasons of those who do not agree with my methods.

ps.
Personally I found reading "italic" a bit difficult. Is there any particula reason why you changed fonts? You like it this way? Just curious :)

continue all the awesome work You've been doing, sharing and caring, engaging, helping others out is pretty cool of You, thank You very much, wish You, Your wife and all of Yours all the best.

Thank you for your kind words. Seriously you managed to put a huge smile on my face just now.

Yours
Piotr

You're welcome ^^)

And I understand the philosophy of remaining on steemit only, I've become a steemit addict mainly for the same reasons You are here x), the resteem suggestion might work but probably not the way You're trying to do things, still, I do believe it might come in handy sometimes, with less expenses at least, somewhat less personal =X..

Sometimes I simply refrain from commenting, because I might not have something to add that might be constructive, that is probably why You don't see me a lot more in the comments section of Your posts or resteemed content, I do avoid debates where I don't have something solid to add..

Yeah, indeed I do prefer italic, but I'll keep in mind what You said since You're not the first person to tell me it's harder to read (personally I find it more pleasing but that is just me, and I do like to personalize everything, if it was possible I would probably create my own font to use or search for and already existing one that I like ^^P )

..You smile, I smile, everyone smiles!! It's good to know that, it is one of the few things that gives me some joy lately, to help someone, even it is just by putting a smile in their face, and You are one of the Steemians around here that deserve that and much more =D

As I usually end most of my posts (got it from @MaxIgan although I knew the meaning when he remembered me of it)

In Lak'ech Ala K'in
(I am you, and you are me, in another interpretation, I am another yourself)

Have a great day, cheers
Cy

Dear @cyberspacegod

Sometimes I simply refrain from commenting, because I might not have something to add that might be constructive

I'm thankful that you decided to add to current topic. I definetely enjoy reading your comments.

personally I find it more pleasing but that is just me

Personally I think you're right. Italic look way more classic. But somehow reading same length of comment writen with regular fonts is way faster.

So thank you for using regular font :)

Yours
Piotr

You made my day a bit better, glad to know my comments are somewhat enjoyable ^^,
Definitely will try to keep writing comments with regular font, but my posts will all be in italics (You can't take the classic fonts down!!) xP..

Cheers mate,
Cy

Upvoted and reSteemed, buddy.

Namaste, JaiChai

Thank you for your constant support @jaichai

NAMASTE big time :)
Piotr

Another great post my auto vote is set😁😀😁

I appreciate that a lot @steemingmark :)

Enjoy upcoming week buddy
Piotr

No problem you too. If you could help and delegate anything to my friends @linkinpark @nomadshostels or @starbuckscoffee that would be greatly appreciated mate. Great thanks a lot

Dear @steemingmark

You asked me about your friends. Look, I really don't mind helping them but they would have to reach out to me. Otherwise it really doesn't serve any purpose.

Cheers,
Piotr

Thanks a lot mate I will contact them.
