Let Me Teach You Another Thing Or 2 About That "Simple Steemit Post Of Yours". (Untold Stuff)!!!
<html>
<p>Let me teach you another thing or two about that <strong>"simple steemit post of yours"</strong>.&nbsp;</p>

<h1>What are other triggers, that can help your post earn more?</h1>
<p><br></p>
<p>After all the effort you put into creating these posts, you want to earn something. In some cases and for many people, <strong>"earning"</strong> doesn't always have to be financial!&nbsp;</p>
<p>You may also want a level of interaction, friendship, new connections etc</p>
<p>You may at least want steemians to come around and create further beauty, in the comments of your posts etc</p>
<p>Some posts were designed from the very onset to <strong>"impart"</strong> and <strong>"earning"</strong> in this case, could be;<strong> "in the knowledge that you have imparted others!"</strong> You may relish that your audience acknowledge this, by means of their heartfelt comments, a resteem and in some cases, <strong>full-blown posts triggered by means of your own post etc</strong></p>
<p>But did you know that on the flip side, all these seemingly-looking side-actions, <strong>can also very easily turn into financial rewards?</strong></p>
<blockquote>Yes, even that tiny upvote from redfishes, minnows, or not-very-powerful bots, that you may frown at for not having impact; all work together and can trigger a huge earning!</blockquote>
<p><br></p>
<p><strong>At the end of this post</strong>, i will help you imagine how all these things work but first, <em><strong>here is a little background:</strong></em></p>
<h1>Little Background</h1>
<p><br></p>
<p>I have been here long enough and i am not talking "duration".&nbsp;</p>
<p>Some people can see and perceive things more quickly than others, not because they are better at <strong>"seeing"</strong> but perhaps because, they are <strong>"looking"</strong> more intently.</p>
<p>Most of the things i learned about steemit were not from the whitepaper. I did ask many questions but again, <strong>"it is about composing and posing just the right question"; </strong>which in itself is a special skill.</p>
<p>Over time, growing up; i developed my path even when it comes to understanding things. Even in very simple conversations, like those that we have in the discord DMs etc, my art of conversation is very unconventional.&nbsp;</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Yes, i may get to the <strong>destination of our conversation</strong>, in a very short span of time, not only because of my understanding of life and humans but also because of my method of processing information.&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote>I look more for underlying concepts and try to understand that.</blockquote>
<p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/0qUGRIF.jpg" width="662" height="662"/></p>
<p><br></p>
<p><strong>I understood steemit really quickly</strong>, from the actual process of <strong>"steeming on"</strong> itself. For instance <strong>"bots"</strong>; it didn't take me time to know that they existed and upon knowing they existed; it didn't take me time to understand how curation <strong>(in all its dimensions)</strong> worked.&nbsp;</p>
<p>While many minnows like me, where busier figuring out why there should be bots in the first place; i was already looking at how bots worked, in relation to curation.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I do like to <strong>sift the good from the "not-so-good"</strong> especially when it comes to humans, but this applies even when i am dealing with life, issues and situation. So i was fast in pin-pointing that even though bots did some votes, there were always <strong>human parameters</strong> involved. I will pause here on the "bot issue".</p>
<blockquote>I painted the above picture, so that you can grasp the later part of this post better!</blockquote>
<p>Too, it didn't take me time to understand <strong>"steemit posts"</strong> and how they worked in relation to earning etc.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In the earlier days of steemit, there was a <strong>"4 post" daily limit</strong>, which i tried to exhaust at the time as i felt obligated to maximize possibilities, but after a period,<strong> "simple logic"</strong> in relation to the curation knowledge i had started to accrue, made me start to reduce my number of daily posts.</p>
<blockquote>Many of the rules from the past, related to bots &amp; post limitations, have changed due to several hardforks, but the principles still remain!</blockquote>
<p>It got to a point in my earlier days on steemit, where even solely based on intuition, i could tell if a post would earn.&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote>Overall, steem was as low as 7 cents at the time, so we valued every cent. Yes, we valued every comment, resteem and even every redfish vote.</blockquote>
<p>Note: There weren't bot initiatives like minnowbots, boosters, upgoat, randowhale etc not even many discord servers!</p>
<h1>Back To Today</h1>
<p><strong>My point is:</strong> whatever the case; whatever the hardfork; however, the number of bots;<strong> the principles are same:</strong></p>
<blockquote>We are in a community of reputable great minds; steemians; <strong>humans!</strong></blockquote>
<blockquote>&nbsp;If we focus on the <strong>"human"</strong>; then every upvote, resteem, comment counts and when you expand your horizon just a bit, perhaps even the bots, spam comments etc count too because <strong>"humans"</strong> were involved!</blockquote>
<h1>Let's Play A Bit</h1>
<blockquote><strong>Note: </strong>Even in my play, there is an element of "serious". Read between the lines. Apply principles as you read my stuff. Understand the underlying concepts. Forget the theory.</blockquote>
<p>It is a known fact that not everyone may vote on posts manually. Some may have an list of who they auto-vote for, especially the busy ones and some may vote for valuable content using a bot or auto-vote service like curie, steemvoter or steemian based on his or her parameters.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Yes, some may code their own voter and add 120 parameters to it, so that <strong>this bot </strong>votes based on the preferences of <strong>the human</strong> etc</p>
<p><strong>Now look at this scenario:</strong>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Your post has earned 0.57 cents and has had 200 upvotes and it frustrates you; and to add to your frustration, a comment from @arcange arrives, congratulating you for having had 50 comments to your post!</p>
<p>You still feel frustrated but you decide to take a nap! However, the next time, you look at your post, you see that it has got a <strong>100 dollar earning </strong>on it and you wonder in bewilderment; <strong>"how could this have happened?"</strong></p>
<p>Let's imagine!&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote><strong>"What if a certain whale decides to use engagement as one of the parameters for his auto-voting and decides, 'let me measure engagement, using @arcange's comment on a post as a trigger'!"</strong>.&nbsp;</blockquote>
<p><strong>You see;</strong> moments ago, you weren't very happy, even though you were amassing 50 comments on your post because your earning said "<strong>0.57 cents".&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>Now did anybody ever tell me, that a scenario like the above exists? The simple answer is "NO".</p>
<p><em><strong>But does it matter?</strong></em></p>
<blockquote>Hahaha, you have to <strong>present yourself</strong> every time, for you know not where opportunity lies. @surpassinggoogle</blockquote>
<p><strong>In the Philippines for instance</strong>, people ask me, why i am fully dressed, when i am just going to a store in the next street.&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote>Well, where i am from, if i had the means; i dress gucci everytime because, i may need to sweep someone off their feet anytime, anyplace &amp; vice versa!</blockquote>
<p>I will leave you with just one scenario, to help you build on the ability to 'understand underlying concepts', when you read complex things, <strong>like whitepapers, steemit posts etc or even during the art of conversation!</strong></p>
<p><br></p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> even with manual votes, there can be many parameters involved e.g <strong>i may have seen your post the first time</strong> and it may have been <strong>top-notch content</strong> but hahaha, <strong>"top-notch"</strong> isn't the only parameter for me because in reality anybody can create<strong> "top notch content", </strong>so<strong> </strong>i may let it slide; only to vote for it at a later time, because i saw it again, <strong>resteemed by maybe someone i know, or someone i like, or someone i look up to, or a redfish or a minnow.</strong></p>
<blockquote>Hahaha, statuses matter not to me, the human does!</blockquote>
<p>I seem to speak for myself, but the <strong>logic &amp; principle sticks</strong>; <em>we are in a reputable community of great minds; steemians;</em> <strong>HUMANS!</strong></p>
<p><strong>So here......</strong></p>
<p>I do value every tiny upvote because, with steemit; <strong>"its an ecosystem"</strong> and every tiny thing can be a trigger! Yes, even though, you don't earn a dollar from the myriads of redfish upvotes, these votes still aid visibility (relevance algorithm). <strong>Did you know?</strong></p>
<blockquote><strong>And you never know, who is following or copying the vote of that redfish!</strong></blockquote>
<p>The truth is <strong>anything</strong> on steemit can be a trigger, so value <strong>everything</strong>!&nbsp;</p>
<p>Yes, sometimes even that <strong>tiny-looking resteem from a minnow</strong>, can be what triggered that a <strong>whale upvote</strong>.&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote>For instance, i vote on some posts, simply by visiting the resteems of a minnow or redfish account</blockquote>
<blockquote><strong>Also remember this;</strong> many votes that happened on the outside (steemit.com) may have happened because some good Samaritan on the inside, has vouched for you; <strong>so it may not be your top-notch content afterall.</strong></blockquote>
<p><strong>The thing is</strong>, you never know what the trigger would be, so why not<strong> present yourself.</strong></p>
<p>Yes, some people may use <strong>"number of words"</strong> contained in a post as an additional parameter for their auto-votes, so why not <strong>"go big"</strong> when you post and<strong> "present yourself".&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p><strong>@curie </strong>may come around or someone who submits undervalued posts to @curie may come around, so why not <strong>"go big" </strong>and <strong>present yourself</strong> to these opportunities by means of your posts.</p>
<blockquote>A whale may decide; "let me visit #philippines today, since i am off from work". When he arrives, will your posts be hotcake and ready?</blockquote>
<p><strong>Presence is key!</strong> Read <a href="https://steemit.com/steemit/@tegoshei/your-presence-matters-a-must-read"><em><strong>this post</strong></em></a> by @tegoshei</p>
<p>Plus, <strong>your posts</strong> <strong>say alot about you!</strong> In my case, i am very gifted in that regarded, that i may get to know you perhaps, <strong>even more than you know yourself</strong>, just by reading your posts.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>People ask me how that is and the answer is quite simple:</strong></p>
<blockquote><strong>The state of your heart, the extent of your substance, are in the tiny excerpts of you that you weren't paying rapt attention to.</strong></blockquote>
<p><strong>So if i was your boyfriend for instance</strong>, and i was aiming at reaching your heart; i won't be asking you:<strong> "do you fart loud?" </strong>hahaha, that is a very frontal, obvious question and you will be fully prepared before you answer!</p>
<h1><br></h1>
<h1>My Curation Efforts</h1>
<p>You will notice that i vote on the comment section alot and one of the reasons i do this, is in the whole story just above!</p>
<p>&nbsp;Ofcourse, ultimately, i do this type of comment-voting to promote unity, engagement, community etc but i also do it to teach! Yes, i want to teach even in my small way to value even the tiniest gifts.&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote>Value that these are the best times on steemit &amp; and stick around!&nbsp;</blockquote>
<p>#philippines is really improving in the comment section and it is a joy to watch! I talk #philippines but reading between the lines and you will see that my posts and all of them, have an underlying general message for every human and ofcourse every steemian. Too, overall, what i try to speak of, is <strong>life and love.</strong></p>
<p><strong>"Life &amp; Love </strong>applies everywhere<strong>, "steemit and beyond" </strong>and this is <strong>my gift to you, </strong>for now!</p>
