RE: Six Months on Steemit-- Status Update-- A Personal Journal Entry

in #steemit7 years ago

I have only been on a week, but was wondering what you consider spam? I write original articles and use original pictures most of the time unless I can not find a specific species of plant that I might be writing about and them I site it. Is it the youtube stuff i see with no writing?

Sort:  

Spammers go to other people blogs or posts, and write the same things over and over again, Example: things like 'upvote me sir because i upvoted you' or 'Follow me i followed you'. They think steemit is just a fast way to earn cash while steemit is all about sharing ideas.

Thank you for that explanation . I really appreciate that information and will make sure to ignore them. I have not had any that I can think of, however I am new and have not had that many comments on my writing. All Good things to you and yours!

I think it's definitely a case of "short term gains" vs. "long term building."
