Ever heard the saying "Rome wasn't built in a day"?
I'd say that is about the most important thing to keep in mind when you join Steemit. I see so many people join and give up in a week or a month. Often times after not really putting in solid effort. You won't come onto Steemit and post 5 blogs and have a really solid, dedicated fan base. This is a community and involvement goes a long way as does hard work and consistency.
Forget about the money.
I know it sounds crazy but if you just joined then seriously don't think about the money yet. Think about how to get better at writing. Think about where to get the best stock photos. Think about how to format your blog to be visually appealing. Learn about Steemit. Learn what types of posts do well. Make friends. Follow people. Think more about what you can do for Steemit rather than what Steemit can do for you.
You're not going to make free money here.
Free money doesn't exist. We all know that by now. And money for going around spamming for followers on your blog with "meh" content isn't going to make you money. You need to really put in some time and virtual elbow grease and seriously....time. I have been here over a year now. Stop looking at the top earners with envy many of them have either been here for a long time or they invested money to get to their position.
Get to know people here. Go onto Steemit.chat and go to the steemit channels on discord. Don't go in there and spam. Go in there and learn and talk to people. Or just read blogs and leave genuine comments. But really put some time and effort and heart into your blog. Tend to it. Don't expect instant results because that isn't going to happen. However, if you stick to it and you really post good content you will eventually get somewhere. Steemit has been life-changing for me.
very useful hints share by your goodself. I am sure that i will get benefit by using these tips at steemit. once again thank you dear...

And to be honest, it's a good thing because we get rid of the kids who think it's easy money, we get rid of the copy\pasters, and we are left alone with people who actually work and dedicate time to this platform. THE VALUE OF THE CONTENT RETAINS REAL!

Great points... I've been here about 30 days and you are right. Get to know people and be very active is the way to do steemit, getting tons of upvotes will follow if you build good relationships with everyone :)

Very true! I usually upload here on steemit what I used to upload only to instagram, and I am posting on instagram just for fun. Now it's great cuz I can make a few cents here and there for the pictures I would take anyway.

Really good advice here, I am very new and on the first few days fell into some of the do nots. I know how easy for new users to follow some of what they see others doing, Like follow me and I will follow you is not the best idea ,rushing to gain some ground fast is not needed here, i now know.
I think most new users joining up today could easy fall into some bad habbits so hopefully they will read this :) I am slowly learning now.

This feels like great advice. Nobody's going to give you a lot of free money. The reality is, Steemit will actually give you a tiny bit, so that should be appreciated and not approached with entitlement.
I'm personally here for the conversation and platform first, the money is an interesting aspect, but not the main one.

I think you're spot on.
I'm new at Steemit and I'm loving it. It really isn't about the money... it's about enjoying the great content you can find here... I've been here for about a week and already discovered many amazing artist.
