ULOG 119 - Simple ways to promote Steem every day

in #ulog8 years ago (edited)

ULOG the log about you!

In a previous post ULOG 060 - Passive promotion of Steem from an iPhone I was talking about using your smartphone's WIFI hotspot feature to promote Steem by setting the WIFI Network name to a customized message. Today I'm going to add another couple of little tips I'm using.

Watermarking images and videos on other social media websites

If you are present on other social sites such as Youtube, Twitter, Facebook or Instagram, then it's a good idea to add your Steemit URL as a watermark so that people can notice it.

Every post your upload to other sites is a promotional post for your Steemit blog. Watermarks can be applied to both images and videos. I'm even applying them straight from my iPhone via various apps:

  • iMovie allows me to edit my videos on the go straight from the phone, I can also add text on the video itself
  • iWatermark+ allows me to add graphic watermarks (logos) to images but also videos

I sometimes use a combination of both those apps.

Email signature

I don't know about you, but I'm sending emails every day. The signature in an email is also a good place to promote your services and your blog. There are tools such as New Old Stamp that can help you generate nice looking email signatures. Here is an example of what you can do with that tool:

There we go, simple and cheap!

Password and Private Keys security

You all know that your Steem password is the access to all your STEEM, SBD, posting, transferring, everything... right?
So, please, follow these simple steps and keep yourself safe:

  1. Apart from the initial setup of your account, NEVER use your password ANYWHERE, if stolen, it will give full control to your Steem account.
  2. Backup your password and keep it somewhere safe. Use a password manager like Lastpass, print it on paper and put it in a safe (no kidding). If you forget your password, no one can help you out.
  3. To login for creating content and curating, use your Private Posting Key
  4. To make transfers and account operations, use your Private Active Key
  5. To encrypt and decrypt memos, use your Private Memo Key

All the old blogging rules still apply :D
