RE: DO RESTEEMING AND MENTIONING actually work well? Are those efficient ways of building reach and exposure on Steemit?

AMAZING comment @jeanlucsr

Just called you out on another post, so I decided it would be better to comment here as well.

Would you mind sharing with me link to that post? I really cannot find it (to many notifications).

Compared to a Facebook Share or a Twitter Retweet, how well does a Steem Resteem score?

Unfortunatelly I'm not able to give you any reliable answer. I never used Twitter and I only use Facebook messanger. So my experience is very limited.

I only have some strong opinions about Steemit because I tested number of solutions (together with few other friends) and we all came to very similar conclusions.

I think @partiko has an amazing notification system and I barely miss a tag.
Lastly, if you really read and respond to all of these comments, that's a lot, respect for that.

I really appreciate your advice. And thank you for your respect :) I believe that I owe my time and attention to those who give their time to write a comment. But yeah, it's not easy.

In my case, the only sensible notification system would have to be organized in similar way to "reply" section. Where you can see one reply after another. Unfortunatelly once you will exceed 20-30 comments / mentions a day it's very hard to react to notifications. All I can do is to open "reply" and go one after another. And still it takes me 2-3h daily just to engage with received comments.

I had to accept the fact, that I will not be capable of visiting posts where other people mention me. Memos are really best solution here so far :(

ps.
I'm not sure if Patriko does work on desktop or only mobile devices? Would you perhaps know?

Yours

Hi @crypto.piotr,

The post is a week old and not my own, so finding the comment would actually be difficult and I would have to use steemd to properly link you up, so I'm going to elaborate on it here.

In short it came down to sending unsolicited link through memos being considered spam on this platform. I've added the image that sparked the discussion to this comment.

That it (the memos) serves for you as a solution to other problem, I now understand. However, we are now having a meaningful discussion because I can over to your post and posted a comment, not because of the memos. I just don't think memos are personal enough. They have the feel of an email newsletter, which works best with a) previous interaction/purchase and b) interest in the topic discussed. It is more of a push marketing tactic, which has severe limitations long term. The biggest issue with the memos is, you are sending the memos to people without prior consent, in online marketing terms, they didn't opt in.

I do however understand your intent much better now, but still feel there should be better options. Especially on a platform that hosts so many great developers. I hope some of them read this and will address the situation further.

@partiko is currently mobile only, but I did hear that there is a desktop version in the works (I don't have a timeline, sorry).

To conclude, your case study is quite interesting. With you demonstrating that you get more traffic and engagement through memos than actual mentions, the Steem blockchain has to come up with a way to improve the notification system and interactive culture of the platform in general. Just out of curiosity, do you by any chance measure the conversion rate from memo sent to interaction (upvote/comment) on your post?
