me too. I sometimes do a paragraph in comments but most of the time I don't. Engaging with the author is the best way to improve returns (income) thus engaging also to high reps authors with high number of followers makes you visible to others.
This simple things can attract more readers and some followers too. Followed you!
I absolutely agree with you. The first thing I did when I signed up was find the tools to identify top authors and top accounts and followed all their feeds. This way I am learning from the best, and it ramps up my learning curve. I don't think most members think of that.
Maybe Steemit could create some "Welcome to Steem" intro guides with best practices and recommended accounts to follow so that new users can get a better start?

@dante01 Well Said - STEEMIT was not designed to be a get rich quick platform by any means and from day one they instilled being invested in it by actively using it, contributing in all facets... The rewards system is severely flawed though and if a user is unable to make a very considerable investment in SP to their account or can bring a large following with them from another platform - the hard work versus reward timeline is just simply way too long for people to stick around... There are so many STEEMIT ghost accounts where users have left... And way too many absurdly distorted payouts to high SP holders and whales simply because they had the means to pay their way up the STEEMIT user ranks/hierarchy

very very true - I know there are plenty of Developers working on doing so and I know one witness in particular is lobbying for less witness payments to pay for "proposals" of all sorts -marketing, development, etc - Some decision surely has to be made
