If what you say here is correct, and I'm a newbie just trying to figure all this out, then why don't people help out the newbies when they run across them with a tip or 2 to point them in the right direction? Aren't most of us all here for pretty much the same reason? Isn't it kind of like if one person succeeds then we all succeed - more or less? I know i'm learning what I can little by little. Just trying to understand how blockchain works and how you actually earn Steem$. I know there is a start here section and other sections to read all this. Which i will eventually get thru. Understanding it all is another story. Sometimes, a small tip from someone who understands all this is easier to follow.
I also agree with having quality content. I believe i that was one of the first things i read when i joined. Quality content also depends on what a person is interested in
Not everyone is going to be interested in the same content. For myself, i love seeing videos and pictures of people in other countries. Learning about their cultures and such. I'm not exactly interested in what a person ordered at a restaurant.
Many people have no clue as to what a blog is or even how to go about starting one.
We definitely need to work as one big team and support one another and help the newbies out when we can. This whole system is a bit overwhelming and quite challenging to learn when you don't have someone to kind of show you the ropes.
Anyhow, that's my 2 cents worth as an extremely green newbie.
This is an awesome opportunity for those who want to reach for the stars. Let's all get there together.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
articles with good content are well ranked on google search engine listing. good ranking means new visitors which can one day invest in Steem currency..
now one of the current problems is that people is pushing posts with no content/text, memes, duplicated content or low quality text and this kind of articles switch ON the google penalization for the domain steemit.com - good quality articles ranking and chance to get new visitors with google is affected because of those posting spam and poor in text articles.
I'm with you @thorleyjo on the giving the newbies a tip or 2. I'm also a greenhorn in all of this, and as you said, I could look for all the links to help me through it, but with the time it would take and the output of effort for someone who doesn't know their way around these sites, it gets, well to say it like it is.....frustrating. And then sometimes there is the understanding what is said. Once again, frustrating. Just a hand up is all we ask, not a hand out.
