Good that you wrote this post, so it's on the blockchain for ever. Even when you're here creating content for a while, you can not expect that every blog is going to get big rewards. But that's okay. After all, you have to create the content because you like to create content ... and yes, of course it's very nice when you get rewarded for that. So yes ... you like to be rewarded, well everybody likes to be rewarded. But ... (and now I'm talking for myself), I love to be rewarded for the content I create, but that's not all ... it's also very lovely to get a comment that shows that your post really was appreciated. That shows that the person really did read what you wrote down. And I'm sure that for everybody goes the same.
So yes, ENGAGING is very important. It helps the one you're engaging with, and yes, much of a chance that they are going to check out your content.
Good write up ... but that's no surprise as this post is coming from you. Thanks for this one!
True! Most of us here came for the rewards (without knowing about the other beauties of the blockchain before) but once you'd seen the value, the rewards won't matter that much anymore and you'll value the community more. I honestly never experienced this on other platforms (where people genuinely read your posts cos they're interested). We should market Hive not mainly cos of the rewards, cos the rewards are just the bonus. Otherwise the newbies will get frustrated.
Thanks for reading! :D
