RE: How Can We Improve Steemit's User Retention? (English/Turkish)

in #steemit6 years ago (edited)

I was thinking of writing a similar post. You have perfectly caught my thought, very good. Add among the reasons that make many authors inactive, after a few posts, it is money.
Many users, when they register on this platform, begin to focus only on the money. They take hours to write a post and very often their work is not "rightly" rewarded and this cause a lot of frustration.
I think this creates a huge barrier for the development of new accounts and for the growth of steemit, because as you said:

The more people actively use the platform, the better financial results the platform have.

As a noob to the platform, I think I can offer some insights.
@muratkbesiroglu : Good article; thanks for highlighting some of the stats as you did.

When a person just starts out not only are they not drawing a crowd, or any attention, they might start with the enthusiasm of the prospect of writing a blog where the appreciation will lead to a payment.

They might be looking at the Trending page where they see an average payout of 100-1000 dollars for a post; often posts that are little more than a paragraph and a picture and the "like + share" note... So, on the surface, it seems like an easy money.

A person pours their heart and soul into a 750 words essay, and you see that you got 1 like. Nothing to show how many views, and the score. 0.01$.

That is tantamount to a rejection, that feeling like a gut punch... you put in so much energy, not many people have stone skin to deal with that poor performance for more than a handful of posts.

Ultimately; it comes down to the variation in actual influence.

the winners know how to survive hard time
