Hi

in introduction •  6 years ago 

Greetings Steemit! Glitterstorm here!

I have seen many people posting online about steemit and I finally decided to give it a try. I haven't spent that much time looking around yet but I already LOVE THIS SITE! if you have any tips or links that you think might be helpful to me I would much appreciate if you could share them below in the comments.

I have a passion for cooking and travel, so I suspect that many of my posts might be on those topics. It looks like there are already quite a few people on here who are posting things about food and those topics so I can't wait to follow many of you. If you think there is someone I should be following then please also recommend them to me below! and thank you to anyone who does. I'm happy to be here on steemit and looking forward to the journey.

Hello, @glitterstorm, and Welcome to Steemit.

It's good that you're finally here on this platform

Travel and food are 2 of the most popular topics on Steemit, so you should have plenty to bring to your blog.

You will be able to write about what you love, and earn Steem. It's definitely worth getting excited about.


Below are a few basic points of advice re posting on Steemit.
1 – Longer posts are more lucrative than short posts. If you make a post of 20–30 paragraphs, it's more likely to earn rewards.
2 – Include some photos, images or graphs, to complement the text.
3 – Make sure the text and photos are formatted properly, so that your post looks attractive and appealing.
4 – Be yourself.
5 – Be interesting and informative.
6 – Create quality content. Steemit is intended to be a platform of quality content. (You will see many insignificant posts with meager content and no quality. Most of those of posts [called “shitposts” by Steemit whale Stellabelle] will earn few rewards and soon pass into oblivion.)
7 – Get online and start curating. Read various posts, comment on those posts you find interesting, and upvote those posts. That’s the best way to attract followers.

Hope this helps for now. Good luck, and Full Steem Ahead!

thank you for such a kind welcome and these tips you have shared
now following you!

You’re welcome. One more point. Submitting photos in the various photo contests is a great way to earn a bit of Steem and to attract followers. Here are links to 3 contests.

@photocontests, organized by @juliank
Daily color challenges, organized by @colorchallenge (Temporarily inactive)
#tepchallenge, organized by @theexplorer

For entries into those photo contests, short posts are OK. But it's a good idea to add a bit of text explaining the photo, to give the post some meat and to make it more interesting.

thank you very much for this i will follow these people , the tips are much appreciated
