Just me casually blogging about steemit and my life here.

in #writing7 years ago (edited)

I could just Steemit exclusively to make a living.


ut I am not. instead I spend most of the time I have during a day to just work for some very small rewards to wherever is that I work. I am telling you, the salary is not great, not even close. I could be making the same amount of money by just spamming whatever is I could find potentially even mildly interesting on my blog, which I prefer to keep it a bit clean, and some times helpful for others.

You see I have some followers to give exposure to some good content by displaying it to some people that will on their turn find them interesting, I never did the follow to follow tactic, or personally use a booster of some sorts. Yeah it haven't work the best for my followers, but I feel like my audience is more committed to my work.

I have finally reached another milestone. 1000+ followers 7000+ SP and 1 rank below my next goal. Just 0.9 for my next rank of 70. Which is proven the hardest one to pull. Yet the most important for me. Placed at top 200 ranks my goals would be to just keep my place until the summer ends and get back to more steeming, more creativity, productivity, widen my followers base and contribute to my greek-trail. Speaking of and this goes to some of my old friends here that always had my vote this is the reason why my vote preferences shifted, I bet you as well are giving your support towards your local communities more, and that is just what you should do, you can tell by the number of meet ups happening all over the world. This is where the interest is and this is where our attention should be. Following our votes, with our goals.

Steemit's growth is big and is not without its drama. We all witness the late flag fights, I sympathize with anyone flagged for no apparent reasons but I understand the reasoning when big interests collide. I can sympathize with both sides and only wish for the best outcome for steemit, in the end of the day that is what we all wish for. I am not a big player. I am not power hungry, I just want to give out a hand if possible and help it grow, as that I feel is the only remedy for our micro ecosystem...

As more people will fluid the steem evolution will be bigger, for the entire project to get halted by coding issues I want to believe that the interests from the investors are to great to allow such a thing to occur. Creating fud spreading it and consuming it, it is one of our community's hobbies probably. Hey I have fallen victim of fud lots times, I bet you too.

Thanks for the follow ups everyone.
Thank you for your support and your faith and your appreciation to my blog.

I will be blogging for some more. and for sure we will meet at steemfest2, I am doing my best for that.

@skapaneas making a full commitment to at remit is hard and stops the flow of life to some extent. Honestly you are doing more than enough as you are right bow. I'm amazed to see you've reached so much on the platform 😲 Did you start out with any investment?. The whole following scheme is a bit broken if you ask me so better off just stay your authentic self :)

Cheers for all the efforts you're placed so far and I wish you all the best and joyful moments in life friend. Be free and don't forget to live.

I myself am working a demoralizing small job to go by where my salary is worth 2/3 of your post payout amounts, but I'm living in Bulgaria.

being honest original and authentic helps the most. There are people in here that genuine want to help and promote content worth of be promoted but you can tell that whales can't catch up with everything since I am just guessing steemit is a portion of their interests. it takes time and comitment to stand out and get some worthy upvotes down the way, I am not saying its easy, just that it is not out of reach.

thanks for stopping by.

No problem I'm make sure to stop by again.. And thanks for your great reply.

@vangelov the whole following thing is a bit problematic not only on this platform I think..it's like either begging for followers or dealing with bots..So yes you're right about being your authentic self do your own thing and it will pay off in the long run...and @skapaneas is a prove of that!
And @vangelov about small jobs, don't worry everyone been there done that, it can be frustrating but hard work and ethic matters and will pay off sooner or later. Stiskam palci!!

You are right on that.. I'm currently following people that support me in any manner. Afterwards when I reach 200 people that i follow i won't be looking at the trending and hot pages so much, mainly focusing and helping the people that I follow ^^ that's my plan so far

Writing is very inspiring @skapaneas, this is the answer I have been looking for in steemit. Building trust in followers is very important. I even want my number of followers to be 1 million. And I keep trying to achieve that .. hopefully this writing you can make me better.

Hi, can you explain a bit more what is that flag fighting, are people reporting each other or?

It is not something you should be concerned as it is a whales game. you can check some of the steemit category posts about it. I cought a lot of people talking about the matter. My stance is to keep out of that kind of conflicts as their isn't much I can contribute to either side.

Steem journalism 😊😉 I like! Well done my friend!

Thanks for reading out me morning thoughts... I know you are swimming as we speak. I am still waiting for your selfies by the beach :*

Gr8 work @skapanes
Kip it up
Steem on

I have finally reached another milestone. 1000+ followers 7000+ SP and 1 rank below my next goal. Just 0.9 for my next rank of 70. Which is proven the hardest one to pull.

Congrats on your success, and respect for your himility!

Wish you all the very best for your goal - may you reach it soon!

Creating fud spreading it and consuming it, it is one of our community's hobbies probably.

FUD is a human trait, brought into Steemit by humans. At least the bots don't have it, as yet!

Followed and upvoted.

Congratulations @skapaneas awesome achievements! I also can't wait to get that 70 rep, but it is so hard to get there!!!

I will be here till you reach it. :D

Then it will be celebration time!

Congrats on your 1k following @skapaneas !!
Your dedication pays off and thanks for the support and helping hand.
Now you should celebrate! :)

I am keeping the celbrations for my 70 rank and. Thanks for following this far. I really enjoy your company since day 1 :)

Upvoted. I'll be resteeming this now :)

I hope you reach rank 70 soon. That is an exciting goal and you are so close. I hope to get there someday. Any tips?

Set a goal be consistent and work towards that with all your heart. Best of luck my friend.

The great thing is that you could blog full time and make a decent living if you wanted. We live in an amazing day and age!

Hi my friend. I try to keep my self active I think it helps me be more productive than just sitting on my desk waiting for some interesting ideas to pop up. Steemit really helped me overcome some of my social anxiety issues. It gave me a lot more than just an extra income. My life seems more meaningful if that makes any sense. Helping out my local community to grow, socializing with all of you guys here it's probably the best thing ever happened for me. If that comes with monetary privileges so be it. I really dig into it and I would love to see more people experiencing the same 😀😀😀

Well done. I dig your authentic, genuine style. Right up my alley ;) Keep on Steemin'.

Really like your sincerity and 'work haard'ethic, I think in the end this is what matters, congratultions on your achievement thus far

I am Groot! :D

you are just spam but sure. I am beting you this will get your rank damaged man!

This is spam brother
