Steemit Milestone: 5000+ followers and my views about Steemit-An Introduction

in new •  7 years ago  (edited)

Getting 5k+ real followers in a platform like steemit is not a day job because people here appreciates quality posts especially posts that will add value to their social , mental and financial wellbeing.
Some great steemians, examples, @papa-pepper , @exyle , @sweetsssj , @slowwalker , great steemit witnesses @teamsteem , @timcliff and or a steemit gentleman @meesterboom aka uncle Boomy have proved beyound reasonable doubts that constant quality posts , steem power and reaching out to followers (replying to comments) pays out positively in the short and long run.
For newbies and some older members that are yet to see the day light here, here are some few points:


Pic source:

Steem power: Most successful people here have a good amount of steem power. Reason is that steem power will help you gain more rewards (curation, author ) , reward other people posts , delegate steem power (make money doing so), punish scammers/spammers (downvotes) , interest payment, secure yourself in the future of social media and gain in the future value of steem. Therefore, buy steem and power up if you have the money. Moreover, you can cash out some steem if you need the money to solve your personal issues.

Respect others: respect to your fellow human being is essential to succeeding anywhere in the world. How do you comment on other people post? Do you just copy and paste 100+ comments in order to get upvotes (follow for follow, upvote for upvote) or do you read and send in constructive comments / suggestions? In fact , some smart new people focused on good comments the 1st month (most make more money through this way than flooding the system with many posts in their 1st month) in order to build real followers and learn how things are done here before posting their own blogs-thus earning and building their contacts here.

Brand and Patience: focus on what you are good at and build a brand around it. For example, if you are good in cooking amazing foods and drinks like these ladies: @gringalicious , @amy-goodrich and @karenmckersie aka @momskitchen then focus and build your brand around that segment. Furthermore, with respect to work of art/photography (paintings, photos, etc) then check out @opheliafu , @saramiller and @timsaid (many others too not mentioned here). The main point here is not to be jack of all trades and master of none, rather reach out to people who like what you are good at and build followers around your brand. Moreover, in doing so, patience is key because you need time to succeed –therefore do not think that you will make it in the 1st 3 months (possible but hard) because steemit is not a get rich quick HYIP scheme.

Have Fun: In reality, I came for the money but stayed for the fun, people and learning experiences. Moreover, there are many ways to have fun here examples by joining many contests / competitions, challenges and innovative teams (if you have the tech skills). In fact, if you focus on the fun side of things here, money will come without you begging daily for an upvote or a follow.

Now is your turn, do you agree on the points raised here? Send in your comments, resteem to teach others and upvote in order to send in your support.

Congrats for such a good achievement. May you get more and become an inspiration for many other.
Thank you so much charles. I agree with your points. The main thing which I think is very important is making good connection with other people. Yes, good content and respect is very important and I will advise to everyone do that by building good relations.

Welcome and thank you so much for your kind words, I wish you more success.

@charles1 Reading stories like yours always inspire to me work on the platform. It's just that I found it hard to get bigger readership on my blogs. The only things that I can resort to is to buy some votes from bots. When it comes to curation, it's also very disconcerting being that it's like all my curator vote is like being thrown to the water. I have to be extremely careful to select blog which has a farily distributed votes distribution (not those that are skewed by a few whales' votes)

I am just curious if you have a short guide for minnows to get more readership to their blogs? Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot, for your commeent. Pls take out time and read this post inlcuding my older posts for more tips. I wish you success

Congratz on the achievement!

Thanks

Welcome and am happy that you are part of my tribe my dear one , I wish you more success😊😊😊

It's really easy to understand especially as I am a beginner in the steem world, and your article is very valuable to all beginner steemians. True as you say, if we respect each other in the steam, and appreciate their articles. The church will also do the same to us.


Upvote for upvote, follow for follow this will not necessarily help us in increasing our follower or add people who like our article. All that takes process, in the world of steemit is not for fun, but here we are to channel our abilities to others, as you described above.


If we want to be appreciated, appreciate the work of others by reading and understanding what is read. And give comments related to the contents of the article, and could be a complementary material for the author of the article. Include suggestions from us that can help the author. I think your idea in making this article very useful for us beginners, I am very interested to share this information for all beginners steemit in Indonesia.

Thanks a lot for the knowledge you share, I will try to convey to my friends, especially in Indonesia

Thank you @charles1 🙏

Thanks for your good comment, more success to you 😊😊😊

Congratulations for the mile stone @Charles1, You have worked hard in this community. You deserve the best. I wish you more success.

Well said sir @charles1 in order to get success here first and most importantly we need to first build our contacts here patience and not jack of all trade secondly begging for follow and upvote is just not accepted as people might vote once twice but the third time you may not because everyone here needs interesting content ....Even sir you are doing absolutely good here with some massive educational quality post...Always post as you are doing ...Support me ...That's all....

Thanks a lot, I wish you success

Welcome Sir Means alot

Thankyou very much sir @charles1... By the way sir @charles1 it sounds weird but I would like to get a small help from you if you can please Resteem my recent uploaded blog it would be a great help i know it sounds so cheap but then being new i just want yours support as the blog i updated it's very much close to me so If u can then please Resteem much love.

Hey friend thank you very much for your information and your contribution to the community, it really helps us to clarify doubts about that topic. And thanks to your contribution, we can benefit those of us who live in this beautiful steemit community.

Welcome and feel free to see my olders posts for more tips. I wish you success 😊😊😊

Let me just start by saying that posting your achievements motivates us (or at least me), who have not reached them.

Moreover, your advice is precious, because it comes after a long and successful experience thus far.

Even though when we are at the beginning we feel we can do many things and faster, the experiences of those who have been on this path should be a guide and sometimes temper our newbie enthusiasm.

Congratulations! May we both be around and steem a much larger ecosystem, when I reach your performance today!

Welcome and I wish you success 😊😊😊

nice comment. just keep steeming hot and ensure you keep to genuine contents and you may even exceed it in a short while... nice comment @gadrian

Thank you! I certainly intend to stay on course, as for genuine contents, you can be sure mine are so, as good or bad as they are. That or sources cited.

writing is very build, especially for me beginner, I am still very layman with the use of steem power, and still very layman, for example if a certain person upvote high value, but on the other side even very much upvote value remains zero .. confusing, but I will continue to learn. it helps me in particular about the importance of steam power. thank you @charles1

Keep learning which will help you to work smart. Success.

thank you mr @charles1
