My Facebook and Steemit experiment:
Two days ago @ around 8:00 am EST I posted an article about my little sweetheart named Jalyn. She made "Fall off the bone ribs" and we documented her work with a video.
I then posted it on Steemit and Facebook at the exact same time.
- Steemit: I had 68 followers at the time of the post.
- Facebook: I had 224 friends, family, coworkers at the time of the post.
Here is a snapshot of both posts:
| Steemit Post: | FaceBook Post: |
|---|---|
 |  |
| Steemit: | |
|---|---|
| 44 Up Votes | 7 Likes |
| 4 Comments | 5 Comments |
| No Shares | 1 Share |
| $84.66 | Zero - Cheap Bastards |
Summary:
I thought it would be compelling to see how many votes I received with both Social Media Sites. I found it very interesting that the number of Up Votes from the Steemit Community was more than 6 times the number of Likes from my Facebook Friends. The reason I found this interesting is because I have 224 Facebook friends and I have known them a lot longer than my new friends at Steemit.
Another interesting point is the fact I have been on Facebook for over 6 years. I have been on Steemit for 2 months. Looks like my Steemit Friends are more interested in what I have to share.....
It will also be interesting when I show my Facebook friends this little experiment.
Especially the part about the $84.66
Action:
Stop going to Facebook!
