Introducing myself - New steemian

in introducemyself •  7 years ago 

Hi there, I'm John! This October I'm starting my undergraduate degree, Computer Science, at the University of Oxford, UK. I'm passionate about anything that involves or goes around a computer, from web design to developing android applications, from doing performance tests to web programming. Got a Cambridge CPE (C2) Certificate and ECDL (European Computer Driving License).
I got a vast experience with Instagram. From automation to effective strategies of organic growth, I have tried pretty much everything on my own.
Have done so far several Unity projects and built them into Android and Desktop applications. From tools to games, from simple ideas to Google Play Store items.

hello @


you are very much welcome to steemit,a one of its kind in the history of social networks. i will like to share with you some lessons i learnt the hard way.

First,write on your area of strength, don't strugle more to get topics to write on, but when you write based on what you know/do well at, that becomes your brand and fellow steemians will know what to expect from you on every post.


don't beg for followers.


When people follow you on a quip pro quo basis, that's the foundation of not getting upvotes and comments because many of your followers didn't do so because they wanted what you have to offer but rather they are just there as numbers. #don't go for numbers, but value.


When i joined, after my intro post. i went low kay and started engaging with people on their posts and comments and like that,i was getting people that truly liked me for me. i must note that at some post as a newbie, i outrightly asked people to follow me but that was before i learned that it was one of the unwritten rule of steemit;don't beg for followers.


Again,paticipate in contests, it will conect you to people and probably, earn you some steem/steem dollar. and always try to leave a good comment on people's posts. this dose wonders. check out this contest[clickhere]https://steemit.com/fiftywords/@literature-trail/fifty-word-story-contest-week-20-race-join-for-a-chance-to-win-1000-trail-and-40-sbd

Finally, learn to engage. Get the esteem app on your phone so that after writing and posting with your pc,you can now use your phone and respond to replys on the go. This will help you build your followers.>/h4>

I hope that this piece will be of grate help to you as it has been for me[though i learnt the hard way]. Follow them and thank me later. : )

once more, you are welcome.

Welcome :)

Now to pay forwards some tips I got when I started last week... It is worth ensuring you use all 5 tags to get more exposure and also picking an image for each post to pull people in.
