YOU GUYS are amazing!
It's only been about 5 months since I joined the wonderful community that is Steemit.
I logged on this morning and found that I have 300 followers! You guys rock!!
This is a milestone for me!
I love Steemit.
I have to admit, I joined because, like most people, I DO spend a certain amount of time on social media every day. Catching up with friends, looking for ideas, reading interesting posts, etc. When I heard about Steemit, I thought, why not? Even if I only get a few cents per post, that is still MUCH more than I EVER got from those other sites!
Yes, there is a little money to be had here. No, it is not a work from home business, by any stretch of the imagination.
Sure, there are a handful at the top that ARE probably making a living, but the average Joe on here certainly is not.
But that's okay! You know why? There is something even BETTER here!
Friends. Community. A very interesting group of like-minded people to connect with!
I have to be honest here, that is ABSOLUTELY my favorite thing about Steemit. Even if, someday, I actually make enough money to supplement our income, that is only secondary.
You people are the best!
I thought about making a list of some of the people I love on here, but I know, with my forgetful Mom-brain, I would leave out many of you, so I will just say thanks for your support guys! You know who you are!
As always friends, have a blessed day!

so Squishy, is there anything you can recommend based on your experience so far that I could do to help attract more followers? Was there anything in particular that you did, or that happened, that seemed to really boost it?

Well, I find that if I post every day, that helps a lot! Also, I make it a point to go around and comment on peoples' posts. People already on my followers list of course, but ALSO I go into the 'new posts' section, and pick random people who's posts interest me and comment there as well. I find that generally people, when seeing a new face commenting on their posts, will check out their profile and start commenting in return, many times following. :)

There really are some amazing folks on this platform. From my first blog, there have been certain people that have supported me as well, even though I am a little spotty. :) Have a great week.
