Last week, I wrote a passionate post in favor of resteeming. My post addressed the concern about how my own posts may get buried by resteems. Because I don't take resteeming lightly and only share what I believe in, I was stumped. But not any more... today @cryptologyx resteemed @steevc post Can you resteem too much? His post brought up great points about the concerns of over doing resteems on your blog.
Nuggets are buried in the comments section
It was in the comments section of @steevc’s post that I found a solution that allows me to promote others without burying my own posts. In the comments, @jessamynorchard stated:
“When I helped close to 20 people onboard a couple of months ago, rather than sharing their posts via resteem, I composed a post about them that included tons of links to their posts from which readers could dive into these authors further. The featured authors had a good followership jump from the post, which to me, just proved that features indeed work, and are beneficial to essentially everyone.”
What a fantastic idea. I will certainly still resteem individually, however, by grouping content that I want to promote in a separate post like this, it not only allows me to share what I've found, but it gives me a chance to add my personal insights and gratitude. There’s no better time to start than NOW.
Representing the Heart of Steem
You can tell by my previous resteems that I’m passionate about supporting Steemians who I believe represent the heart of Steem. They:
- consistently provide success tips to Steem newbies... @walkingkeys, @bitcoinparadise and @sumatranate
- offer great chunks of whale-sized nuggets... @gtg, @knircky and @teamsteem
- spread Steem in positive ways like my SteemGems... @lukinsawyer and @dandesign86
- offer extra special encouragement... @the-ego-is-yours and @anothervoice
Everyone I mentioned has been personally inspirational and encouraging to a little whale-in-training like me. So grateful.
As my peeps know, I love popping in on them to say hi. I learned that little nugget from @anothervoice, who after we started communicating, would pop in from time to time just to leave an encouraging comment and be off to Steem again.
Special shout outs
- Artwork for my post was provided free of charge by @dandesign86 series called "Today's Free Steemit 3D Illustration Contribution". Scroll through his feed to see them all 17 of them.
- Be sure to follow @lukinsawyer so we can triple his viewership. For those that don't know, he's crossing the country on a bike powered by the Steem community, muscle power and lots of sweat. Support him as he fights off hunger, flat tires and snakes with the most positive and inspirational spirit. He's an amazing ambassador for Steem.
