HOW DO YOU MAKE MONEY OFF STEEMIT?

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

I love this idea of mixing blog/video and being able to build a platform and share information for free whilest being able to be compensated for it. It allows everyone access to information and encourages people to continue to submit and put more time in to their pages. I have tried to read up on the payment system but i am still finding it somewhat confusing. Any tips, please share them here...

I can see that I have about a dollar but nothing shows up in my wallet except for the 0.01 I got sent for upvoting what turned out to be a bots post.
It gets more and more confusing!!!

I myself am still trying to figure out the payment system but love that people from all walks of life can come together to share their views on topics they find

you have just had 14 votes however for this comment and 39 c way to go !!! you are doing something right haha

I think I am following the right posts that help me better myself in this atmosphere :) I appreciate those that

I think your message cut off before the end

Weird. Here is what I was saying:

Yeah I haven't got that part down yet. I have figured out how to put it in savings for later though :). So nice to meet you and looking forward to reading more from you.

yeah i got that one later!

you somehow just got 10 votes and 37 cents for that reply though ! :) haha good work

from what i have learnt so far, you get the steem crypto currency as a pay out when people upvote (ie like) one of your posts or comments and if they have more steem themself you get more when they like. What I havn't understood yet is why the money doesn't show in the wallet, but then some bot randomly sends you money! In any case lovely to meet you! :)

Yeah in haven't got that part down yet. I have figured out how to put it in savings for later though :). So nice to meet you and looking forward to reading more from you.

how do you put it in savings? I don't show up as having any avialble yet which, is understandable as i only just found the site but it does say i have earnt about a dollar but none of it seems available and hten in the last few hours i have been out it's gone down lol, is that because the cryptocurrency went down or did someone down vote me or something is that possible? Lol It;s a totally new system to get used to. Lovely to meet you too xx

So I think you can only see that option in the computer. When you look at the wallet there are drop down arrows next to the amounts and that is where you can transfer to savings.

Well it says my account is worth 80 c or whatever but there is only 0.01 avaialble showing up which a bot paid me as I must have upvoted it's bot response lol! Does this mean the 80 c isn't real or it's just not hit my account yet.

See that's where I am confused too. I need to look through the FAQ.

It might have to be transferred into your wallet manually. Do you get a blue notification at the top of your wallet regarding this? I just got one today.

i supposedly have actually earnt about a dollar but nothing shows up in my wallet then i suddenly got this 2 minutes ago Receive 0.001 SBD from koinbot Thank you for your upvote. :)

it all gets more and more confusing! hah

The main thing that I have read is making great posts and curating great content. Probably the best shot as a Minnow other than making posts that people really value is the voting on posts part. The key is not to vote on a post that is newer than 30 minutes and also to make sure it's a post that is really valuable and maybe also if you feel it is valuable to the reading community.

i definitlely want to create content I am proud of but I have seen one meme off the internet make 10 bucks lol
