RE: Three Kinds of Followers You Want On Steemit and One You Don't! Building a Solid Follower Base Leads to Long Term Success!
"They have too many people pulling for their attention to get in good with them long term and that's totally understandable. "
But many whales just put certain people on their auto-vote list and leave it at that. They get they curation rewards and the authors get their rewards, so it ends up being a win-win, no?
Yes. This can happen. But, it will usually only happen when you've attracted other solid votes. Here's my point. Don't worry too much about the whales. You can go diving into their blog comments and make friends, see if you can catch one's attention, but it's not a good solo strategy for real growth, or sustainable income on the platform.
Also, the same strategy you use to produce solid content and attract other followers, is the same thing Whales will look for.
