Hello, everyone

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago 

Greetings to everyone from rainy Scotland!

My name is Nikolay, and I’m a Financial Economics student at the University of Dundee. I’m in my final year of studies and I’m originally from Bulgaria. In my free time I like to read about International Finance and Investment Management. Austrian Economics is my preferred school of thought and, as such, I am a proud member of the Bulgarian Libertarian Community. I’m also a freelance translator and, as of recently, an article publisher.

Good to have you here, @nikolayfilibev

Greetings and welcome, friend! There are many liberty lovers here, so you will be very welcome. Please consider joining us on steemit.chat within the #libertyprofessionals, #libertarian, and #cooperative_agorism channels.

There are a ton of other webpages to help you with Steemit. Here are some of the best for beginners:

https://steemd.com/ (This site is used to keep track of your voting power and other stats. You do not want to run out of voting power, and you only get so much per day. I keep my voting power around 80% for example.)

https://steem.makerwannabe.com/ (This site will tell you who follows you, who unfollows you, and who mutes you. It is great for meeting new people too. I regularly check it to see who has followed me to see if I should follow them back.)

https://steemit.chat/ (This site is the official chat webpage for Steemit. There are Discord channels too, but I usually stick to the official site. Come in to network and meet new friends. You can directly message people there too, so it makes it easier to communicate with your closest friends.)

Oh yeah, there are a lot of bots on here. If you see a cookie cutter reply, especially to your intro post, it is almost certainly a bot. Check the account's reputation. If it is low, I would recommend just ignoring them. Everything is public on Steemit, so you can go look at an account's comments and replies. Are they all the same? It's a bot.

Adding photos to your account as a new Steemian may be confusing at first too. The easiest way it to click to "Submit a Story." Once in there, use the built in Steemit tool to upload an image from your computer. Below the posting window, you will see "Insert images by dragging & dropping, pasting from the clipboard, or by selecting them." Click on the blue text. Once the image is uploaded, you can copy and paste the link into your account settings.

Verifying your identity is very important because it will get you more support and people will trust you more. The best way to verify is to link back to your Steemit account by using another public social media account. For example, I posted my Steemit articles from here through my Twitter account. Another person posted their Steemit information on their Facebook account. Some people will even post a video of themselves writing out their account information since that cannot be Photoshopped. The more famous a person is or the more valuable their content is, the more important it is that they verify. If a new account falls within those two categories and fails to verify, it may get blacklisted.

Again, welcome, and I've followed you! If you have any questions about getting started, look me up on the chat site.

Thank you for this! I'm glad to see a fellow libertarian as expected within this community. I appreciate your help and would like to hear your commentary on my article if you're interested. I've followed you as well!

Welcome here on Steemit Nikolay. I hope you will enjoy your stay with us. Already nice picture. Thank you!

Good writeup! I saw that you joined recently so I'm gonna support you. This deserves an upvote and rock on!
As you are new to steemit, getting those big upvotes are gonna be hard so you could give @MinnowPowerUp a go. This service lets you earn up to 30% more steem power than just powering up! It's a subscription based daily upvote bot that draws its power from a delegation pool. I made this post to explain the system in more depth and show how I earn over $1 a day in upvotes.
