RE: Is Google Translating Your Post a Viable Way to Earn STEEM?? Short Answer: No...

in #community7 years ago (edited)

Hi! I am new here and still learning how things work. I haven't talked to much of the Korean community yet, so I'm confused about what you are saying only because I do not fully understand yet how Steem works as far as payouts go. I didn't know it was possible to abuse Steemit. 😞 I have a lot to learn.

I do want to say I have one Korean friend here and his name is @sochul. He has become my genuine friend here. He goes out of his way every day to ask me how I am feeling, what my life in Texas is like, etc. I have learned that he has been to the U.S. twice, served as a Korean soldier, has a sixteen year old son, and loves to visit national parks. He remembers things I have said in the past and he keeps up with me. He has been ny kindest, most thoughtful friend here so far. He engages and contributes in conversation with me regularly and I think he has learned more about me than any of my other Steemit friends so far! I'm very glad I have his friendship here.

I will try to do some research to learn why Korean posts make so much money! I have noticed they make a lot more money than other people with the same amount of upvotes but I haven't put any thought into it!

@sochul님 is a pretty cool dude and I'm glad you're have such a great bridge into the community.

This post is a bit difficult to follow unless you understand the payout systems and the statistics behind how Steemit has been growing. Basically, some people are trying to take advantage of the power of foreign language groups by using google translate.

It is somewhat of a misconception that "Korean posts make money." Some do receive higher payouts compared to views but that's because of the avid activity of its members.
