Hi guys!
I'm new here since yesterday. I have no clue how this works. I posted some of my photos but noboddy seem to notice. Is there anyone that has some tips for me how to start?
I'm a photographer from Sweden and would love to post pictures daily. Follow me if you like! :-)
Hello Johannes, welcome to Steemit. I have joined 6 weeks ago and I needed some time to learn how everything works out. I took much time to read posts of others and if I liked a post very much, I followed or got into a deeper conversation. I think this is one way to get noticed.
You did great photographs, I am sure many many Steemians love photography. This picture I think is excellent, did you use any filter?

Thank you @anutu!
This picture was taken in Abisko, Sweden. This is one onf the best places in the world to see the northern lights. I just added a little contrast. Its a beautiful place!

I always wanted to see the northern lights, but unfortunately never been to Abisko. I have been to Stockholm, Malmoe and many other cities in Sweden, but never to Abisko.

Sometime you can see them in Stockholm too, but not very often! :-)

Welcome to Steemit @evergreen365
I wish you'd written more about yourself and your interesting topics .. single picture is all right as long as you put 200+ words to describe anything related with the picture or write some relevant stories too, make sure you choose the right tag to expose your posts.
And thanks to @anutu who has featured you in the pay it forward contest this week.. that's how I came over your post and share my tiny support for you. Keep Steeming.

Pictures would be great, Sweden is a lovely place. I would recomend this article https://steemit.com/steemit/@donkeypong/simply-steemit-your-no-nonsense-guide-to-getting-started. It is a little dated but still relevant.
Anyways, keep up posting and learning, I'll give you a genuine non-bot follow, there is a lot of bots here but there are real steemians who care about good content

Yes I noticed! After my first post I already had over 100 followers. I think they are all bots! :-(

Hi Johannes. Lovely colors in this shot. Uppsala is a beautiful city. I have friends who live in Bålsta.
I saw your post on my blog about being new. The first thing to do is an proper introduceyourself post (check out some other posts in that tag) for idea. Here is an extreme example from Derek Kind of an excellent one https://steempeak.com/introduceyourself/@derekkind/hello-i-m-derek-a-canadian-landscape-photographer-and-i-d-like-to-share-a-few-photos-with-you-and-tell-you-my-story
Also the key here as a photographer is to verify you are actually Johannes Rousseau. The best way to do this is to mention your steemit username on your webpaage and/or IG account/post and post a screenshot of that up on the introduceyourself post. Steemit has a zero tolerance to plagiarism. There are a lot of people who just find a random photo website and steel photos and post them up under that name . I am not telling you this because I think your steeling photos but if you don't explicitly prove who you are, rich vigilante bots which will downvote you out of existence . So you need to verify your identity reasonably quickly. The other thing to note is there is a zero tolerance for asking people to look at your work in comments, it is seen as spam. I saw your post and noticed you had a rep of 25 so I know your actually new. Steemit is far from utopian, it is a free market lessafair economy, run with quite strict rules by rich individuals and their loyal lynch mobs. It is more like feudal Europe with its many lords rather than the the king and bureaucracy (algorithm) systems that run FB and IG etc. That said there are pleanty of ways to fit into the system and find a niche.
The key to get noticed here it is no different to any other platform. You need to engage with people who have similar work to yours. There is no algorithm to help or hinder you here. It is all about manual networking. The best place to start is @photofeed in my opinion. Post with their tag, there is also photocircle, photomag and others (look at the tags successful people are posting with). If they like what you post you will get resteemed to their following and thats how you grow. Check out the photo comps also, two to start with are the one run by by @czechglobalhosts and the one run by @derangedvisions
Things are not always as they seem here when you start. Forget about the trending pages and hang out in the curated communities like photofeed. Don't take post values at face value as you can loop money though the system to increase your upvotes and get a return so trending has nothing to do with post quality.
Also steemit is not steem; there are other interfaces like busy.org etc. The best to use in my opinion is steempeak.com I wrote a review on it here https://steempeak.com/steempeak/@intrepidphotos/steempeak-com-a-major-step-forward-as-a-steem-interface
Any questions just ask.

Yes for sure! I will keep uploading even though I'm frustrated. This is so much harder than facebook. So hard to find friends and followers. I can't even search for steemians in my city. And I don't get notified when someone comments. Well I hope they change a lot of things in the future! :-)
