It has been more than 10 days for me in Steemit. So far its going well and i am learning on day to day basis, so there is value addition to my skill as a steemian. Today i shall discuss some point what i have learned in Steemit. I am making note of the following points.
(1) The first and foremost thing we should be focused in steemit is rich content. You may find it hard initially but u will survive with this in the long run.
(2) The second point is upvote. Every new steemian just go on upvoting without knowing the timing of "when to vote". So always vote when your vote power is 100%, when the vote power goes below 80%, then just take some rest, let the vote power restore to 100%. Approximately, 20% of the vote power get restored per day. So roughly, one can vote to 10 people per day with 100% power. Just utilize your vote power at an appropriate time, because this will have the effectiveness to whom you are upvoting.
(3) Try to utilize "markdown styling" in your post.
(4) When your are going thrugh an article, try to the read the article thoroughly, because most of people here are not even reading the article and leaving comments like "nice", "awesome", "ah...."....etc these are some thing like an universal comment and it can be commented upon almost every article, this will not fulfill the credibility of a post nor will it fullfil the bigger interest of steemit. So try to read it properly and then make your observation and then comment it, so this will not only attract the author to have attention upon you, but also it will fulfill the worth of a debate.
(5) For the first three month, forget about making any quick buck from steemit. definitely steemit is something which will make you powerful and rich in the long run, but everything consume some definite time and definite resources. Here by the term "resources" means your quality content, your hard work, your presentation skill..etc.
(6) Try to make some research to explore some good article of other steemian and try to participate in that. Along with this also try to connect to the posts of "dolphins" and "whales". Try to comment in their post as well. If your comment impresses the whales or dolphins, then they will definitely have attention and interest in your post. So once they start looking in your post, then definitely this will be the first little success up the ladder in steemit.
(8)Never abuse someone in "steemchat"or in any section of your post. Because this sort of thing is neither going to help you nor any other steemian. So always try to make steemit a healthy environment.
(9) About Steem, Steem Power and SBD i think everybody are well aware of it. Still i am trying to briefly explain about this, If you want to buy steem power then you can buy steem first then convert the steem to steem power in a process called "power up". Similarly when you wish to convert the steem power to steem then you have to go through a process called "power down". However the power down process will comprise of 13 weeks, so every week you will get the proportionate amount as a result of power down. From steem to SBD, you can easily convert it through a process called "market". But i will always emphasize upon banking upon STEEM POWER, i think it is the essential power of a Steemian which makes the worth of an upvote.
With my little knowledge, i tried to explain about my sense of understanding so far about steemit, still if i have posted any erroneous part in this post, then i would request all steemian to point it out, so that i can rectify it and all of us can have brief idea about using steemit.
Hope you enjoy this post. Thank you.
