HIVE blogging really is about quality content and name recognition. If you blog daily long enough and remain posting quality content, people with bigger stakes will more quickly click that upvote button. If you're reliable enough, sometimes they will autovote, knowing you're not wasting space on the blockchain. Build a following based on trust - trust that you're contributing content consistently that the stake holder wants to promote and see on the chain. This is the key to success here.

Perfectly put.

Our Hive accounts all have an unspoken social reputation that in the long run, leads to earning upvotes (money).

Like you said, earn the community's trust and the upvotes you receive will go up alongside your social rep!

Okay, next part...

Haha, maybe you can set me straight here.

I take it that calling someone 'dear' in certain cultures is used in place of how we'd say 'mate' or 'pal'?

Reading it in comments always makes me laugh because all I can think of is my grandfather talking to grandma: "Yes dear, I'd love a cuppa!"

When I see content from the desk of Dane Williams, I know I won't be wasting my time reading, or my vote upvoting.

Thanks for upvoting dear, I will kindly upvote you.
