The Contest Rules

To enter this contest write an original post outlining what you would let someone new to Steemit know. Again there are many things new users might need to know such as plagiarism rules, account protection, rewards and understanding the different currencies are just a few ideas…

My Advice To A Newbie

I would let a new member know about how hard it is to succeed on Steemit and to not get discouraged when a post that took them hours to construct goes mostly un-notice. I would follow that up with explaining about bid bots and how allot of the crap they see on the trending pages was pushed there because of paid for advertisement, not on merit.

I then would explain the $0.02 threshold of rewards not being paid out unless they hit $0.02 or more. I would give words of encouragement and advise them to compete in contest and giveaways as its the quickest and easiest way to interact with others on the platform.

Lastly I would tell them about The Ongoing Phishing Scam and give some short and to the point advice on how to avoid being scammed such as :

• Double check any link before clicking on it.
• Be extra careful with links that take you away from steemit.com.
• Take note of the reputation of the steemian who's link you are about to click .

While there is much more to learn about Steemit such as SBD / Steem Power and the difference between the two. I think the above will give a newbie enough information and know how to decide if they want to continue on the platform or not and set them in the right direction with the right mind set that will allow them to succeeded here on Steemit.
