What am I doing wrong? Help a newbie out

in inroduceyourself •  7 years ago 

I've been posted interesting stuff about my work, beliefs, tips and culture. Yet I don't have follows. I feel like no matter how awesome my post is, if I don't have followers than it's of no use. Can anyone tell me how to get followers here? Organically obviously.
I put hardwork in my blog. I've around 14k following on wordpress. I was hoping to shift to steemit but I think I need more guidance..

Hey there. I am quite new here but I think that. The approach you need here is more social one. Go interact with people and their posts. May be that is the most organic way to grow up.
Mostly other people use some bots As I understood and some Curation bots too for the steem money they make...
But IMO it all comes with time and quality content sooner or later you'll be acknowledged.
Well I hope I have been helpful (which I doubt)

I do interact and upvote actually. but you are right! I need to increase interactions. It's the only way. Thank you so much for the response

Awesome advice @angelveselinov, I'd definitely surf tags related to things you're interested in and be sure to leave througtful comments so people dont think you're automating the process. Also be patient I've been blogging daily and sometimes up to 4 times a day for 6 months straight and i've only just hit 500 followers last week- these things take time but they're worth it! <3

Thank you! You are an inspiration for me right now <3

No problems. You got to have in mind that this is not just another social platform. It is more than that and the users have different views and patterns of behavior so may be you need to tweak your content too in order to meet different needs. Well and first of all this is a community so you have to communicate more I guess. And having your vision I don't think you will have problems with creating a quite huge fanbase as you did in wordpress. Btw you got to give me some point outs on WP stuff :P I got a website and only aroun 100 followers :P Thanks in advance.

Actually I am blogger and influencer so I have been blogging for 8 years now. The only tip is to connect with niche groups relevant to your blog and share your content there. Facebook is where my most of the views come from. Thank you so much for other pieces of advice though. I agree with you fully

Just saw this post today and thought of you dear- hope it helps!

Hey I stopped using steemit because I felt demotivated but back now. Thank you for the article 🌸❤

Don’t give up so easily! Post what makes you happy and the rest will come 💕

Thank you so much for motivating <3

Happy to help wherever I can- just focus on becoming part of the community and the rest will sort itself out 💕

actually the same thing happend to me but a few people care about what i post

Also you should be careful with publishing hour. Ex. I am from Croatia and I publish in the afternoon here, because America wakes up at that time, and the biggest number of my followers are from America.
