Lets see 1 week for me is today. Almost 300 followers. Gained about 4.5 steem power and quite a few steem and SBD (Steem Dollars) So my first impressions are this is a great place! Hope to continue my fast pace!

From my experiance longer posts are better, pictures with a story are even better. People want to feel a part of something, or feel an emotion. Pictures alone are just pictures.

Then again with a good following I know a steemian on here than makes 80+ A post with his computer drawings....Id say the most important is engaging with others through comments, and upvotes along with growing your audience (followers) ;)
