I get about 1/3 to 1/2 of my affiliate sales from twitter. Since joining steemit, and I am able to boost my own posts and those I upvote when I promote them on twitter.
I have about 130 steemers on a twitlist and so far - they are pretty weak compared to the 5500 other connections I already had. Lots of fear and self promotion unfortunately - but I have hopes for improvement.
I'm interested in this new tweet length and will be changing strategies because of it.
I would love to put all of my social media eggs in the steemit basket - but with only 30K in active users - 25% of them bots (at least) - I'm just hoping the place survives and does not implode. Cleaning out the spam is making the Alexa ranking get worse - so that worries me.
For now - I am keeping all my fb, pinterest, twitter, and linkedin balls in the air. I've been through a few failed platforms and I worry about steemit meeting a similar fate.
I've been on a few platforms that failed, but Steemit should be harder to kill as long as the witnesses run it. I just don't have time to be on lots of platforms. For now it's all just a hobby and there are other things I want to do. I really hope to see Steemit take off as it offers so much potential.
Sadly, this is my living, so I have to go where the money is. I have a lot of hope for steemit, but it is certainly a rabbit hole :)
