RE: The Best Post You'll Read on Steemit Today...

in #photofeed7 years ago (edited)

It's certainly an interesting idea, I'll bear it in mind. One thing I would suggest however is that it can be problematic to take things that work on one platform, like Instagram in your case and Reddit in mine, and try to apply those on Steemit. This is a very different, and more challenging enviroment than "regular" social networks.

Sort:  

Yes agree. Each platform is different. I was referring to the old Instagram as well with chronological feed. I have worked reasonably successfully on lots of platforms (500px, EyeEm, Flickr, Google+, FB, etc) and they are all different. It depends what your trying to achieve on the platform as well. In the case of social media influencer work the breadth of reach is important. If you have two posts at say 5pm and get engagement of 4k likes per post, then people often report that they have had an engagement of 8k between the two posts. But they are not likely to be different individuals. You might have only reached 5K people as 3k people are overlapping. If you post at 8am then 5pm and get 3 and 4k likes per post, then you only got 7k likes in total but you might get 6k unique visits as the reach is broader with less overlap so it's worth more to the client.

In the case of Steemit however I agree that for short term benefits where the upvote itself is your reward then scheduling the post and keeping a narrow but engaged follower base at that specific time when the site has maximum activity is a good way to go. In the long run however if you want to post more than one post per day to increase rewards you need to develop multiple follower circles active at different times (ie perhaps 3 times zones peak Asia, peak Europe and peak Americas).

Just post 6 times a day with A+ content...easy

For sure.

In theory it would work.

In theory.

The other strategy is to write lots of small comments into a small sub thread and see if anyone notices them.
