Awesome post @flauwy. I joined in May but pretty much just lurked trying to figure out how it all works. Your post has cleared up a lot of questions.
One about the cheetah bot though - if I republish my own content here from my blog site, does that count against me and should I rather just publish new stuff here? The reverse also applies - will I get penalized if I publish on Steem first and then republish on the website?
Thanks again for the great post!
Great that you liked the article.
You can post your old content here. But it might not be a good idea because duplicated content will be penalized by Google. Also I think Steemit should get unique content. Remember, you are saving on a blockchain forever. In hundreds of years people will still be able to read you stuff. Make it count.
But Steemit will not create a problem for you. No mater whether the Cheetah bot appears or not.
Thanks for the advice. New content it is!
