I cannot begin to explain how I enjoy this new Social Media Platform, but I am sure most of us, took some time to carefully consider before we wrote our first post, then thought even more before submitting our post :)
Why?
Because we are emotionally invested in what we share!
STEEMIT is a reputation economy - You will be rewarded after you build a reputation ... even if it takes time. Most of us in life has learnt that we only have one reputation … It is very difficult if not close to impossible to rebuild a damaged reputation. In STEEMIT's case, you should build your reputation, gain followers from where I hope that we can all shout :
SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!
Social Media networks makes it as easy as possible to share everything, to ensure as it is a purely about building the functionality for us to use. Steemit for example makes it very easy for us to write a full blog publication…
We all however care a lot about what we post, and according to the Wave 8.0 study, we care even more about how things are shared with others. In STEEMIT's case how people Upvote our posts… I think we all know why :)
When the social media study Wave 8 asked people how they happy people felt when people comment about something they have shared on various Social Media Platforms, it became clear that users of Social Media Platforms want recognition of some sort.
The image below shows the responses from various participants.
Around the world people is looking for some kind of recognition.
At the end of the day it looks like a lot of the younger generation is looking to become famous online
So let us wait and see, who will be the first
STEEMIT Celebrity
