You should join Steemit. Here is why.

Your Value

How many hours a week do you spend on social media? How much money have you earned for all of the content that you have created, shared, commented on, and liked? Unless you are monetizing your content through sites like YouTube, you are probably doing it all for free.

Do you think that all of your content, time and attention are worth something? Facebook certainly does. They earn billions of dollars per year through advertisements. Where does all that value come from? It comes from you - their users.

Steemit.com

Steemit knows that your content, attention, and time are valuable. That is why they have created a revolutionary new social media platform that actually pays it's users for the value that they add.

Did you just create the next viral cat meme? Post it on Steemit.com, and you could potentially make hundreds of dollars! Even if your content is not the most amazing thing in the world, every post has the potential to earn rewards.

What to post about?

Have pictures and a story to share from last week's party? Did you just complete a cool art project and want to show it off? Are you an author writing a short story, and want to share it with the world? All of these are great things to post about!

People are sharing all kinds of content on Steemit, just like they do on other social media sites. The main difference with Steemit.com is the potential to get paid!

Commenting and voting pays too!

You do not need to create content to earn. If you spend time browsing content and voting on what you like (called "upvoting"), you can earn a small fraction of the rewards that the posts earn.

You can also get paid for commenting on other people's posts. Users who browse other people's content and write good comments that add value to the conversation can get upvoted and paid as well!

Steemit is not 'fast easy' money.

Although there is the potential to earn, Steemit is not a get rich quick scheme. Most users do need to spend months on the platform building a following and adding value before they start to see a return on their investment. Users should not come expecting to earn tons of fast easy money. Nobody is guaranteed any earnings.

Most users who stick with the platform and continue to add value over time though, do get recognized and rewarded by the community for the value that they add.

Global Community

Steemit rewards personal expression and empowers individuals to build new, meaningful relationships based on shared ideals. It's no longer just about who you were born with or who you've met around town. Your relationships can be global based on your deepest passions and favorite topics.

Blockchain Technology

Steemit.com is powered by blockchain technology similar to bitcoin. Everything that gets posted on Steemit.com is recorded in the Steem blockchain, which means it is permanently recorded in a public database network that is freely accessible and resistant to censorship. Nobody can go and tamper with or delete your content just because they don't like it or disagree with it.

The Steem blockchain was built on similar technology to bitcoin, but it is also superior to bitcoin in many ways. It uses a new blockchain technology called Graphene 2.0. Compared to bitcoin which often takes several hours and charges fees to process transactions, the Steem blockchain processes transactions in three seconds and with zero fees. Even though the Steem blockchain is less than two years old, it is already processing more transactions per day than bitcoin! You can read more about that here.

What has value?

The content that has value is entirely up to the users. Every user can upvote content they like, and the platform will decide who gets paid based on the amount of upvotes they receive. The more upvotes a post receives, the more it will potentially make. Upvotes from users with more influence in the platform are worth more.

Getting Paid

Users are paid in two forms of digital currency tokens called STEEM, and Steem Dollars. These tokens have real money value in the same way that bitcoin does. Users have the option to cash out the tokens for money, or hold on to them and hope they go up in value. Users can also "power up" coins to get more influence, so their votes are worth more.

Investing

Users have the option to purchase STEEM tokens, which may go up or down in value. Today one STEEM token is worth around $1.20 USD. Within the past year they have been worth as little as $0.08 and as much as $4.34. The platform has only been around for a little over a year, and there is a lot of potential for growth.

Bitcoin has been around for much longer, and is currently worth over $2,500 per coin. If users think that STEEM coins will be worth as much as bitcoin some day, they may want to stock up now while they still have a chance :)

Gotta love the no censorship part. Who else would allow me to have a username like I have.

Well, that is too bad, I thought that guy was a bigger supporter of free speech than that.

I know that you have had issues with specific users on the platform, but the way that you handle it is very immature. First of all, the post that you shared has a ton of incorrect information in it. I don't think you are intentionally lying, but you are not presenting an accurate picture of the truth. Also, trying to drag new users of the platform into your little 'war' is really not respectful to them. I know how you work - you basically go to top trending posts that are getting a lot of views, and then plug your posts on the top comments to try and get attention. I respectfully ask that you do not do that to any of my posts anymore. This is really something that you should be working out between you and the people you have issues with, and you should not be dragging other people from the community into your dispute.

hi timclifff , are you part of steemit team ? seems like you really know what you doing :)
can we be friends ?
i follow you and upvoted you
i wanna invite you to visit my blogs too i will appreciate if you give me a comment in how you see my blogs :)

Hi @slendel - I am one of the Steem witnesses, but I don't work for Steemit, Inc.

ah ok very good i like your blog , thanks for reply
see you in my blogs too :)

Are you on steemit.chat or some other messaging service where we can talk? I would really appreciate it if you could remove this comment from my post. I know it can't be 'removed' but it can be blanked out.

I am really not a part of this, and I wasn't aware you were banned from those chats. Anyway, if you are not going to remove your comment then I guess we have nothing more to discuss.

Regarding the flag, I purposely did not flag with enough voting power to cause the vote to go negative. You will see the post is not hidden. I just flagged it enough to lower the payout to zero, so that it was not one of the top comments in my thread. I really don't want to have a war. I just don't want your comments distracting from the content of my post. [Edit] I will also add, I only did this after I asked you to remove the comment and you said you would not. [Edit 2] The comment ended up getting hidden because another user downvoted it too.

Nicely laid out explanation Tim. Simplifying what Steemit is all about like this will definitely help answer the various questions that always come up from new and prospective users.

Thanks so much for sparing me a tab. <3

Agree totally, and finally in more understandable english

Keeping it simple will allow more people to understand some of the intricacies of Steemit that are not outwardly evident or easily answered without a high tech degree of some sort.

If you wouldn't keep it simple in a text like this, it would probably just scare off the newcomers who's not that good in english, before they even got the chans to know about it.

Very good point you have there @jerry12.

You nailed it @sandstorm!

Thanks @kus-knee, you Old Dog you! :)

I already did. Steem on.

I already did even before you :)

ive already joined ;)

Haha. Well the intended audience was more for people who haven't joined yet. Feel free to use the post to recruit your friends :)

Dang i thought i won something :P

Thank you for the informative post! I'm looking forward to find nice contacts and sharing thoughts :-)

Thanks for the summary this is a great help to a newbie like me. I am convincing my friends to join me as well but with little successful so far. It is how amazing this blockchain technology can bring all the people together and people should really appreciate what we have nowaday.

This is fantasitc @timcliff. This will be truly helpful when I'm trying to promote Steemit in India. Everything is easily explained and that's just perfect for steemit outreach here. Everyone can easily grasp the concepts. Thanks for putting this together.

Btw, Take at look at my content if you get the time. :)

Thanks @firepower! Sorry, I thought I was following you already (fixed). =)

Thank you so much! :D

Great piece. Shared on twitter. Stephen

Yes, indeed its not easy to earn in steemit because we need to establish relationship and connection first but we could not hide the fact that there are those who just started but are already earning very well. Should we call it luck?

Effort.... and luck....

Lady luck favors the one who tries. (Barbara Oakley)

Good saying!

Perhaps "smart" or "talented" is a better descriptor of these instant earners.

The rest of us will get there eventually with awesome content and persistence!

Thats a good courage @gigafart. Well see each other there :)

I think quality does have a lot to do with it. And a little bit of luck for sure :)

As well as the desire and the commitment to provide valuable information, great experiences and wonderful ideas.

Welcome to the Social Blockchain that allows you to have Valued FUN!!

namaste!

Some already have big value to provide by presenting themselves (e.g. famous youtubers or bloggers). Youtube follow count or blogger post views is one of the indicators of huge value. Giving people like them some head start can be like investing. Who knows, tomorrow we might get some 20 K users from the viewers of their channel or the followers of their blogs. It's going to be a win-win for everyone.

Exactly, being somebody is a huge factor though.

That's true, my friend.

Great info, I just submitted this post at Reddit, CryptoCurrency section

Very cool!

I think steem power is very important for upvoting instead of converting it into money and sell it. People will upvote and follow u just because u have a great steem power. However, with more and more people using steem, many steem coin is generated so that the steeem point will devaluation from time to time....

Today was my first day on STEEM. I've made my $1.5 posting and commenting sometimes. Not much, of course, but with growing number of followers you will be paid more and more daily. Besides, what Facebook can give you for your time and work?

Exactly. Sounds like you are off to a great start :)

I hope so)

Steemit is a good opportunity to contribute and earn while getting to know a great community.

I totally agree!

Upvoted....fo sho!!!

Hey @timcliff! You knocked it out of the park with this post. Clear, concise, and honest information - that is what steemit is all about! Keep it up. I will be following you from now on.

Ditto! You both earned another follower! ;)

Thanks! I really appreciate the feedback :) Appreciate having you as a follower!

Upvoted, resteemed, followed, facebook'd and tweeted! Hehehe!
Spot on Tim! Plus you making $560 in only 4 hours for this one post should help drive herds of new Steemians in!
Great post! =D

Cool, thanks!

Yes. It is important to point out though that it took me almost a year to get to the point where I could earn this much on a post. When I first started out, I was usually earning less than a dollar on all my posts for the first several months.

My payouts today though show that it can be done :) I'm nobody special, and I had no following when I joined. I just kept being involved, and finding ways to add value to the platform. It took a lot of time and effort, but eventually I made it to where I am one of the higher earners.

They say that Overnight success usually takes about 15 years :)

great testimony and I enjoyed reading this Steem!

Good one :)

one of my favorites :)

Thanks!

thank you for putting that together :) - Truly enjoyed it.

I knew that had to be the secret!
Much in your older shoes, looking to build for myself and SteemIt as I go. ;)

This site rocks a great deal much more than any other site I got hooked on before! Hahaha!
Thanks for the sage advice my friend. :)

Thank you @timcliff 😀
It seems that it is the right choice I made ever to join steemit rather tha wasting my time on facebook, liking and commenting new posts!
To the newbies like me wish us luck! 😀😀

good post, good explenation of how stem works. Also the part where you talk about easy money, i think there is no such thing as easy money. If there was we would all be doing that. Besides that, new people that come in to the chain have to know that they will have to put in effort just to get the ball rolling. You have to contribute to the community in order to see yourself being upvoted and payed for the effort you put in.

I just joined Steemit through this post. I've never heard of it until my Son found this post, so I have you to thank or blame for me joining lol...Thanks for introducing Steemit to me! I'm sure I'm going to get some value here. Ken

Wow, that's awesome! Glad to have you here :)

Probably one of the best promo posts for recruitment I ever seen.

Thanks!!

Welcome - thanks for all you do here again

This is simplest post I've ever seen you write Tim! A superb outreach to non-Steemians looking in on Steemit - as well as nervous minnows! UV/RS :)

Awesome, thanks @mindhunter!

I see the craig grant has RS you today too :) Nice bottom line Tim! Don't lose it all to all those poker bots now! LOL! ;)

Hehe, I won't. I'm being good ;)
I'll actually be starting up a Facebook ad campaign soon (with this link as the landing page) to try and get new users to the platform. A lot of the rewards from this post will be used to fund the campaign.

Fb ads are a nice little earner once you hit a sweet spot, but their traffic can be fickle sometimes! If there was a referral program then you'd really be quids in! You'd collect the upvote and the sign-up ... I'm sounding like Mr Grant now ;) Best get out of here quick! LOL!

Yeah, I know what you mean. I've worked with them before :)

There ain't nothing in I.T. or crypto you ain't seen Timbo!! :)

I just notified my Facebook friends about this website a few minutes ago. This breakdown definitely makes the website easy for anyone to understand.

Thank you for sharing this info! I have joined Steemit two days ago and I like it very much so far ! What a great community!

This right here is the post I been looking hard for. I run Steemit Blogger Central on Facebook and Twitter. I been trying to find a post that truly nails down the aspects why non Steemit users should abandoned ship on the mainstream social media platforms and this post here does the trick perfectly. We RESTEEM posts over there for users as well and I will RESTEEM this in hopes it helps guide people to our community. Great job, following and upvoted easily.

If you like to see your RESTEEMS you can by checking out Steemit Blogger Central:

Thanks for making my job easier lol

This article is very useful for newly joined Steemit also for the old. I propose this collection of writings into Steemit's books for more and more people in the world who know and understand.
Let's make Steemit.com more popular in the world. That's the great platform...
Thanks a lot... @timcliff

I agree, that is why I went towards the mainstream social media sites to promote Steemit and the users here on Steemit. Its time everyone understands there is better options out there and Steemit is a huge one of value in this area. Hopefully this post comes across to them just those facts.

Cool, that was exactly the reason I wrote the post - so others could share it with non-Steemaians to get them to join :)

That is my main goal lately, to use the platforms I created to generate some buzz and get more on board. I actually did the marketing for PIVX for awhile so kind of trying to be my own boss here in a similar fashion, write great articles and market on the side where I can for Steemit. It truly is a great write up you did, should really get others to take a serious look at Steemit

Cool! Thanks :)

I did... I did..... I did join steemit just a couple weeks ago. I was introduced to it through a long time YT channel that I followed! I never would have thought that it could be such a fun place to be. Since joining I rarely go anywhere else in this virtual reality called cyber space Mc Lovin' it! Steem on! Enjoyed!

Excellent article. Really well put together, I can see why you're so popular. Thank you.

Thanks :)

Great article! I saw it on the trending page when I visited Steemit today... That's exactly what a new visitor needs to see first, great job! I'm resteeming ;)

Thanks! :)

Hopefully we end up with the best content and best community, all made possible by the underlying incentives.

I truly believe in this vision, but there are a lot of challenges ahead.

Let's get this done together -- create awesome content and tell everyone you know where it can be found!

I just started yesterday and already told my best friend about it :)

Glad to have you on board!

Thank you . I am happy to be here .

Can you steem any type of content ? Is there anything off limits ? A no no ?

There is some info on that in the FAQ. Technically there are no restrictions, but Steemit may take down anything illegal from being displayed on the website. (Technically it is still stored in the blockchain though.) If you post anything 'not safe for work' you should use the "nsfw" tag as one of your tags. Plagerism is also frowned upon, and will likely get you downvoted.

Hope that helps :)

I have one further question.
Say, in my early days on steemit, I made a post with 2-3 tags. It came with not much success.... very few votes/comments, mainly because as a newbie I had very few followers.

Later, once I learned more, got more followers, and even figured out a few other, possibly better categories/tags - I have intention now to put the same post published once again.
With little or non additions.
Will this be considered a bad etiquette? Shall I avoid doing this?

https://steemitimages.com/0x0/https://ipfs.pics/ipfs/Qmav1AHfmMgannHxKEnErU3UwfZiSbYUgCi9N8gWWkyJtd

It is considered bad etiquette, but if you do it once and a while with your very best work, and mention that you are doing it and why you think it is worth reposting - I don't think it is horrible. The main thing is we don't want the website spammed with the same articles over and over again.

OK, thanks

Another good one to share widely! Thanks a bunch for your excellent write up, namaste :)

Welcome :)

So inspiring.

Upvoted & resteemed

The potential is there. It's hopefully just a matter of time before STEEMIT starts to realise it.

Great post, Tim.

Please allow me to add my two cents.

I think this is a wonderful post as it covers a lot of points and the reasons why anyone should consider becoming a part of the community, however, there's only 1 minor downside.

The downside is basically.. this post is posted on steemit!

Most of the people here already know a handful of the reasons you listed, and they are already here. So I think posts like this should also be seen outside the community of steemit - they should be be going viral on facebook or through a Youtube video.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not underestimating your efforts or anything, I'm just trying to explain how I see things from my humble perspective.

I hope posts like this are featured on other social media networks / blogging networks for people to read and understand - that's the time we will be seeing thousands and thousands of new users.

Keep up the good work :)

Don't worry, I'm 100% with you :) I actually wrote this to use in an advertising campaign that I will be running on Facebook. I also intended other users to share with their friends/family through various social media channels to encourage them to sign up. The idea is to get it out in front of tons of potential new users =)

Yep, that's right.

If you need any help with the Facebook campaign, let me know. I'm also down to join any marketing campaign to get the word out.

are you on steemit.chat?

Yes, I'm now

This is great!!!

hahahahahaha so true!!

I joined for the cat, no doubt xDDDD

Haha, yes!

Hi @timcliff, great short sweet and simple article on why we should join steemit. But probably just a question to yourself and fellow steemians who might know the answer. While i understand steemit uses blockchain technology similar to bitcoin, and i was reading bitcoin do have a limitation to how much bitcoins can be created from "mining", hence will steemit face such same problems? Thanks.
Kudos to your great post again

The Steem blockchain does not have the same limit. The inflation will be reduced over time, but it will never reach zero.

Great. Already upvoted and resteemed a long time ago.

Then just now I reread it though and noticed this all of a sudden

You do not need to create content to earn. If you spend time browsing content and voting on what you like (called "upvoting"),

You probably meant to write "curating", as "upvoting" is already a common term on other platforms.

Anyways it was great so I don't want to take away from that, just help make it even better.

Both terms technically work :)

I didn't want to use 'curate' because it is not as common of a term and I didn't want to confuse people who had never heard of it before.

That's a fair point. The term generally confuses beginners more than it helps them.

Steemit is a good place for aspiring writers and bloggers, if you are relentless and you hope to improve and build a following, then here is definitely a good place to start. Its a good guide to content creation, so you know what audience care about and how to sharpen your work as you progress in the community.

I love writing poems and stories , out of practice lol. but I think all of the cool people I am meeting on here is encouraging me :) I just started yesterday so I am slowly learning my way around lol

I just got here and am already loving so many aspects of this platform. #contentcreators are going to love it as more and more accounts are approved -

This is really great, and it truly show the power of Steemit.com
This cat video have been on youtube since 2016 and only 150 views. How much is that like .50 maybe? This post containing that video have been up in steemit for 2 days and you already made $1,508 as I type this post. Steemit+Steem is the future of Social Media.
I just purchased my first 550 tokens. :-) I hope others jump in this wagon before it's to late.

Yeah, the number of active viewers on the site has gone way up since 2016. Hopefully my post got that video some more views. It totally deserves it. I watched it several times, it was so good :)
Congrats on your token purchase!

Great post, Tim!

I really like that Community quote. I was surprised I said something I like so much. Heheh. :)

Honestly, that is my favorite part about Steemit. I mean the payouts are great, but really the people are what make this so awesome for me!

I agree I just started yesterday and meet a lot of cool people , that alone to me makes it worth it :)

It is one of my favorite parts of the post :)

Yep! Agree with all of this! :)

this is like, a super cool and easy way to portray steemit. upvoted and resteemed. Gonna send this to some online friends and make them come here too I hope!

Awesome!

hi :)

Great write up

I especially liked where you wrote that this isn't a get rich quick scheme. It takes work to build your following and reputation

Thanks!

I also liked that part, too many people look at things as " wow , I can get rich from this ",and then get upset if they don't . this should be for fun :)

Well said. If you're having fun and enjoy what you are doing it will reflect in your blog. That's much more attractive to voters/resteemers

like with anything;

people get online and start getting so unrealistic lol; they make 20 posts on here, and get upset if they're not in a club making it rain by the following weekend;

It's always nice to hear from people with reason on the internet! :)

I've just registered on Steemit.com and I love it. I'll stick around to add real value. I've created a lot of free valuable content. I'm glad I can still add same value and get paid for it. Steemit.com Rocks.

Awesome! Glad to have you here :)

Thanks, Tim.

Very well thought out and nicely put together, this will be a nice post to link people to in order to help explain Steemit quickly. Thank you for this

Absolutely; it would also be great for your SEO as outbound links to 'well performing and trusted sources' actually boost your writings' value too. Linking to a trusted source, is like a rising tide that lifts all boats.

where else do you have the opportunity to be rewarded for being active on a social media platform? Only on SteemIt its possible and your rewarded for you contribution to the platform, from just commenting, upvoting, to even publishing. This gives us all the opportunity to be rewarded not only the publishers. Lets go!

Sharing, quality education here. spot on.

Steem On, the dream is live.

Very well written post which makes it easy for new users to get a good idea about what can be done on steemit. I also like that you clarify that Steemit is not "fast easy" money but that you need to produce good content and keep engaged. I think many (new) users have the assumption that you are guaranteed rewards regardless of the post quality, which is not the case.

Yes, 100% correct. Even post quality is not a guarantee either. There are a lot of users who create a few (quality posts) and don't get much attention, and then give up and leave. It takes quite a bit of time and effort to build up a following and get consistent attention/views/votes.

Amazing post friend, if only the rest of the world knew how beautiful the steemit community is, they wouldn't think twice before coming on board.

@timcliff Thank you so much for your shared.
Steemit is the best platform worth for our actions.

Very fresh and detailed information, could you translate this content and share it with the Hispanic community? I find it important information to share! Thank you so much @timcliff for sharing this with all of us, Great Job!

Hi @carlos-cabeza - thanks for your interest in my post. I am not in a position to do the translation myself, but anyone who wants to create their own translation post is welcome to. I just ask that they cite my article as the original source.

Excellent friend, I will make a publication about this and of course I will quote your post. I will add other things of interest to Spanish speakers! Thank you!!

Awesome! Send me a link once you are done :)

Greetings my friend @timcliff, I sent you the link of the Spanish translation of your post "You should join Steemit. Thank you for allowing me to use it to multiply information in the Hispanic community. https://steemit.com/spanish/@carlos-cabeza/por-que-unirse-a-steemit

The potential for growth here is quite huge. I don't know why EVERY SINGLE person on social media with a good following isn't here already. I think a lot of people are intimidated by the platform. But there are so many posts in here for the newcomer. I know that those posts were invaluable to me when I first created my steemit account. As we progress, I think more and more people are going to realize the untapped potential of the market here.

If I can weigh in -- it may be because of 2 factors; The first being SteemIt doesn't just let folks in. I tried signing up a few months ago and never got approved. This time it took about 48 hours; i'm super glad to be here and have already started telling my followers on other networks; may send out some mailers to my lists this week and make some videos as well; the platform is SOO SEO friendly that it'll tie right in with other things I already do --- and so for me I See it's value; and feel others I Talk to will also; but How long will it take for them to get approved?? Will have to wait and see; Meanwhile the Second factor would be that not all people with huge followings have an understanding of Cryptocurrency like they should; this would be a great introduction however -- :)

I totally agree. The question that people should be asking is "why are you not on Steemit?"
