Your digital presence is your new cover letter, and if you don't believe me, think of all the times that when someone or something was mentioned to you, the first thing you did was google it, stolkear their instagram, or check out their Facebook profile.

If you have a crush, a business you'd like to visit, or a tourist destination, you don't go to your target's place before looking it up on some of the most important search engines on the internet, and make sure it meets your expectations.

And I don't know about you, but the last time I searched for something on the internet, and the information about it was scarce, non-existent, or very vaguely updated in time, that generated some distrust in me.

Do you want to generate distrust?

And before you think "But I'm not a company", and here I'm going to contradict you. and here I am going to contradict you. Whatever you do in your working life, whatever field you are in, you need to sell it, you need to sell what you know, what you do, just like you do with a resume, displaying your product in a store, or convincing interviewers that you are perfect for the job, but now virtually. This not only shows that you have the ability to adapt to the new digital age, but it also became absolutely necessary after THE PANDEMIC that hit the whole world and forced us to stay locked in.

Yes, it used to be cool, but now it is strictly necessary. It is almost impossible to imagine a clothing store, however small it may be, without an instagram account in which it demonstrates its catalog. And it is not only this, but creating a good digital presence, requires consistency, create quality content, demonstrate your potential and what differentiates you from the competition, connect with the customer ... synthesizing, show how your product or service "changes lives".

And I know it sounds as if it were alien to us, mere mortals, but the truth, my dear, is that the internet, social networks, at present, are a constant torrent of information in which we spend much of our day to day, using it for good or bad, but introducing us in the virtual capsule where it is assumed, you find everything.

And if you're not in the place where everything is supposed to be, it's like you're... Invisible.

Where am I going with this? To leave behind the traditional thinking that social networks are only for distraction, to waste time, in short, that the creation of content is an area to which only the so-called "influencers" have access. And that only by being famous you can make money from it.

I have news for you, do you know the difference between some of them and you? They already made their decision. They changed sides.

You can't always be a consumer, it's time to start creating. To create your own content.

And if you are already a creator in any of these conventional networks and you think you provide quality content, but you still don't see great results at a monetary level; I have better news for you. There are better places to publish and be truly remunerated... HIVE is one of them. And before we get into all the bullshit about how web3 works, which has been revolutionizing the internet world for a while now...

You should know 3 things about hive:

• Plagiarism is wrong (stealing content is always wrong, no, but here it is strictly punishable).

• Spamming is wrong

• Stealing someone else's identity to create an account is terribly wrong.

But what is Hive?

Hive according to Saint Google:

"Hive is a blockchain, cryptocurrency, open source software project and social network created as a result of a coordinated split of the Steem platform executed on March 20, 2020."

Rather focus on what you do understand, social networks, what you live every day, but now with the vision of a creator. Here almost every niche has its space, and if it doesn't, you can be the pioneer in creating that new community.

In hive there is room for everything, music, art, podcast, food, makeup, tourism, sports, video games... And the list goes on.

Social networks are useful to spread your brand, business or service, and reach more people... but creating content for social networks is also hard work. Hive gives you that opportunity, not only to spread the word, but also to earn money for your own publications. That takes a lot of effort, and no economic income from instagram or facebook. Unfair because if there is someone profiting from your time and effort.

To be or not to be? That is the question

My recommendation? Start creating in Hive.
