Ok... the amount of times I have been asked this question.... is crazy! Here is the video for all of you!
My top tips to succeed on Steemit :
1. Add value to the platform ( either by being content creator or commentator)
2. Bring new people to the platform
3. Build Your reputation
4. Build relationships
5. BE PATIENT
6. Earn money
Unfortunately without either of those points, you will not last long on steemit and won't make money. All of the points come together and are as important as each other.
Steemit is a community and a new social media platform where you are rewarded for your time and efforts.
Become part of the community, don't just chase money.
Nothing is life is easy, everyone who makes money - has worked hard and long.
Watch the video and let me know in comments below what are you planning to do for Steemit.
Why do you deserve to be paid?
First 10 good meaningful answers will be rewarded from me personally with randowhale on your latest post!
Thanks for another good video. I think i watched em all, and every time I play your new work - it leaving me with even bigger desire to get a new one ASAP.
Awesome advice for everyone here on Steemit - don't come for the money, come for the community! Moreover, don't come here chasing money - if you continue to produce high-quality content and bring value to the entire community, the money will follow automatically. But hard work and dedication is the absolute key to any success, which is important for life in general. And there's no Steemian as hard-working and devoted to her work as @allasyummyfood! ;)
I had a few friends who recommended Steemit to me and while I'm still on here a month later, creating new posts every single day of the week, these friends of mine already gave up and walked away because they were looking for a quick fix, get rich scheme. Steemit is not a "get rich quick" site - it's a place where you will earn well with experience if you continue to always bring value to the community.
As far as the value that I bring (and hope to bring) to Steemit, I have actually joined this community to take everything that I already know in regards to engineering, technology and medicine and teach it to everyone on a daily basis. I'm also planning to create a fiction series that I hope inspires more people to take joy in reading and writing even more.
Steemit is my platform for truly expressing my interests - imparting wisdom to young minds as well as doing my best to inspire everyone about the merits of writing every day.
Thanks for making this video Alla - very inspiring as always!
thank you for such kind words!! and you have been doing so so well, your name stands out because of your amazing comments and your participation! Def a randowhale from me and a follow !!
You're very welcome Alla! There is no bigger praise when one of the most successful Steemians appreciates and follows my work - words can't express how much your warm words and support mean to me. Thanks for always inspiring me with your hard work and continued devotion to creating brand-new, very delicious and unique recipes as well as this awesome and super helpful video series. You rock!
Can't get enough of your videos! I think it is safe to say that you are a big part of Steemit.. Not only do you bring value to the platform, but you guide newcomers so well and help the community grow and add value to it themselves! Thank you :)
Once again, your advice and effort for the community is appreciated and spot on. I have been patient and have been making friends and my posts have gained in value, but my comments is the part that is really paying off. Each time I comment I remember to be thoughtful about what I write so that someone can benefit in some way. Thanks - Jim
I think that it's pretty logical to work at something that takes awhile to grow. I've been I Steemit for almost two weeks now and I been having a amazing time on here, especially on Steemit chat, being able to connect and networking with other users is great. I just started following you yesterday, so thank you for the valuable insight. It only encourages me to do better. I know that I have great content to share with the community. I'm in it for the long haul, and I want to grow like a lotus flower on here. (๑>ᴗ<๑)
I spend a large portion of my time on steemit working with new members on Discord at the minnowsupportproject, where we help them learn the ropes and give feedback on posts
I spend time writing quality content (though I'm still new). Content that can easily be followed and immediately used.
I reply to virtually every comment I receive.
My comments to others are aimed at extending the conversation, improving the content, or asking meaningful questions.
And, most importantly, I intend to help steemit grow by retaining the new members we attract. I'll do it by helping out in the minnowsupportproject, and by writing content that helps people live better lives.
Thanks for the video, and for the tips! Always great to learn from someone who's clearly doing something right.
All great tips. I think #7 should be willing to learn something new. This platform is full of so many topics that most likely new to you. For example, I have no clue about crypto currency so i've been reading up on it every day. But this site is filled with health related topics, food, photography. Find a niche that you aren't knowledgeable about and learn something.
If you aren't learning something new everyday, whats the point. Don't get comfortable with what you know. They world is filled with knowledge.
yes thats actually a really good point, and i hope most people learn new things here. I have developed personally so much by learning everything and its been amazing!
I like this. I think some people are treating this as a way to get lucky and hopefully get an upvote from a whale. I think the more reasonable approach is to look at it as a long haul ticket where your added value will be rewarded over time as long as you're authienic (I actually just wrote about this myself a little).
Thx ALLA!!!! Gotta be honest I'm a total Newbie and just joined this Steem crap strictly outa curiosity that people are getting PAID good money? my mind was completely BLOWN!!!! however the more I've learned its actually not about making money...
Completely different than i thought, theres some actual very good content globally especially when it comes to helping out other nations... Ive worked internationally in many different countries and all that I've learned is that Currency exchange is NOT a fair thing and so sad that many developing countries cannot make a more valuable currency... this type of SOCIAL platform changes everything!!!! Some kid in AFRICA could create an account and make the same amount of currency that my fortunate white ass can make sitting in the UnitedStates... it will be worth waaaay more to him... THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!!!! this is an opportunity to change the world and allow some fairness in the world... Regardless if i can make any money, if i can up vote some kid in africa and help him make some money... that alone will make me feel good for the day... Im SOLD now :D Lets all have a great day and hopefully STEEMIT can make a change for the Better :D
Glad to have you on board! I can feel your passion and I think you will do really well. I understand that initially making money and posting is attractive, but its so much more than that! You deserve a randowhale up vote from me. Alla x
People are coming up in my comments asking me to upvote their posts with out even saying high or introducing themselves. I have no filter, I put them in their place right away, hopefully they learn and do better.
Thanks for another good video. I think i watched em all, and every time I play your new work - it leaving me with even bigger desire to get a new one ASAP.
Thanks !

I meant - new video created
