Hello @ablaze and @samsmith1971 😊 I consider myself still a newbie around here, but if I think in my beggining, mine was a rare ocurrence 😆... I made a good first impression at the time and even my following posts exceeded my expectation in the way they were received.

I actually met you both on my intro post 😍!

Although there's been almost 6 month since I joined, so far I have had 5 posts making less than 2,5$, 2 less than 1$... I admit one of them is my worst quality post so I think I didn't even deserved that much. But the others I still did put a good amount of effort. I understand how frustranting can be, however I have never had a long period like this so I don't know how that feels, although I can understand the disheartening.

About DreemPort it can really be a cool way to get more people to read and maybe upvote your or even newbies posts! You also get to curate other people's posts so it's a good way to making connections. As for my experience I can say I gained quite a few friends and regular upvoters for my content 😊 It's super easy and you can even gain DREEM tokens 😁

Lastly I agree with @samsmith1971, I really love engagement and just the fact to get some regular people to comment and connecting with me, even if my posts doesn't make a lot of rewards, is encouraging to me 🤗.

P.S: I only realized now the community you posted ahahaha Rant and complaning seems like an easy thing to do 😂😂😂 And very relieving, so get it all out @ablaze! We are here for you 🤗

Ah you've gotta to love Hive, my rant post has given me exactly what I was looking for in some super engagement from a bunch of legends. We should definitely organise some European get together at some stage where a bunch of us meet up and drink too much and sing songs or the like, @meesterboom said he can house around 38 of us if we go to Glasgow or there's @blanchy's 17 seater couch below in Tipperary...

Your intro post was one of the best I've seen @blackdaisyft and then you had the presence of mind to just interact with people for the following week or so and didn't rush into post 2 like most of us did, well me anyway. In doing so you built up meaningful relationships and got to know people across communities and I would say you are well known now, which is great for someone relatively new to the platform.

I must check out dreemport - what is it in a nutshell?

Awesome! I'm glad 😁 I hope that gave you motivation for you to keep going 😊

Is it possible that maybe because you have so many things going on offline that you're been feeling like it's just too much effort for the activity and engagement you've been having?

That's a pretty cool idea!! I'm sure someday we can make it happen! At a tuesday preferably, and we would do a presencial #TTT 😁🍻🍻🍻 I would love to visit Scotland eventually 😍

In doing so you built up meaningful relationships

I'm so grateful 🙏! #TTT was the first weekly contest I joined after my intro post which brough me great meaninful friendship like yours 😁 Thank you so much for your kind words 😊

So in a nutshell, it's a platform where you can submit your posts once a day, from Monday to Friday. It can be older posts as well. The main focus is good written content, so only posting pictures without words won't pass the screning. In order for you to submit your post, first you have to curate and rank 5 random posts. We are encouraged to upvote and make a meaningful comment.

Here you have a 6 minute post that explain everything. For you to start will only take 10 minutes, it's super easy 😊

Did I summarized it right @samsmith1971 😆?

You're right actually, now that you mention it, spinning lots of plates and trying to keep everyone happy does eventually catch up with you.

To be honest I'm usually one to rant and complain much, so the fact that I did must mean I'm running on a near empty tank. The good news is we have a family holiday coming up in June when I'll be able to recharge my batteries.

Dreemport sounds amazing and thanks a million to you and @samsmith1971 for taking the time to explain it so thoroughly. I think I'll have a blast of it and see how I get on one of these days.

You're preaching to the choir sir 😆

If it would be ok for you not to post everyday, maybe it would be preferable to slow down a bit here on Hive (but not #ttt plese, keep going!!) rather than building up frustration and overwhelming yourself 😊 As you say to me, no pressure 😁

I would say it's easier said than done... But I just wanted to leave here this reflection for you to know that option is available if you choose to do so and depending on your Hive/crypto goals.

Dreemport sounds amazing and thanks a million

Anytime! Reach out to us if you have any trouble or questions 😊 I look forward to see your content there! 🤗

!PIZZA !ALIVE and you are very welcome. Please do come and visit... I think you may decide to stick around 😉 It complements Hive really well. One thing though, if you share #TTT posts, don't share full lyrics 😉... of the songs shared... a small excerpt is fine as is the youtube performance.

Fantastic!!! Love it. And you still have time to post today hehe. So Dreemport opens for curation/submissions at 4am UTC every day, so that's 5am at the mo for the UK... It closes for submissions at midnight UTC, so 1am UK at the mo (cos of British summer time of course lol). Then screeners have the final 4 hours to finish screening posts to make sure they comply with guidelines before they are made available at 4am UTC the next day again to public curators.

Yes, you did @blackdaisyft 😊

@ablaze Dreemport is an off-chain website (although it has an on-chain presence in @dreemport and @dreemsteem ) that brings together bloggers from multiple platforms to share their posts on a daily basis, Monday to Friday. It enables authors to get more eyes on their content, increases engagement and builds community. Sign-up is quick and easy. Each day that you choose to use the site, you are assigned 5 random posts that were submitted by writers the previous day, and you read them and rank them. You reject any spam or anything not meeting Dreemport guidelines eg: excessive violence, sexual content, etc that may have slipped by the Dreemport screeners. Once you have read your '5', you can submit your own post, to be curated by the public the next day. You share your posts URL in Dreemport so that people read your content on your own preferred blogging platform. You also earn Dreem tokens for curating your 5.

Dreemport also runs monthly 3-week challenges in collaboration with targeted communities on Hive to shine a light on those communities, bringing more people and engagement to those communities and simultaneously sharing the Dreemport community with them.

There is also a discord. Details in the post that Margarida shared.

You can also read this review written of Dreemport by a Dreemport newbie recently Building a better name with Dreemport

Take a read and if you have any further questions, I am more than happy to answer them 🤗

I am sure that @dreemsteem would be happy to respond to you too if you have any questions for her as the community leader.
