I am new to Steemit, I opened my account in August 2017, but really starting posting in March 2018. Initially, I did a lot of self voting, however, I realized that it is not really what I want. I really want to build an audience and it does not matter if it takes me forever. I am pretty busy with my regular life so I cannot dedicate a lot of time to this. I do want though sincere follows and upvotes. Money will come afterwards.
