The last couple months I've helped new Steemians by posting about them and asking you, my followers to go check them out.
Thanks to your warm introductions, upvotes, and some followers they had a great start on Steemit.
I promised to send them the SBD earned on the posts I made about them to be transferred to their accounts. This post is proof that I kept my word. Thanks to you guys I was able to send out over 136 Steem Dollars!

Thank you again everyone for helping me welcome these new users to Steemit.
If you have not seen these new users you can check them out here:
Why I Think This Method Works So Well
Someone new to Steemit can sometimes et lost in the noise and when they post their introductory post and no one responds it can be very disheartening.
If you have built up a following and you ask them to go visit the intro post of someone you signed up to Steemit, their first impression can be a very warm, responsive community and that can make all the difference in the world even if those first visitors don't follow them.
The feeling that there is someone listening and responding with a nice hello is sometimes all it takes to keep a new user here. Sometimes their first intro post does very well and they get their first followers.
A week later when I send them the SBD my post earned talking about them they get an extra kick of encouragement.
So, when you introduce someone to Steemit not only should you resteem their post but try making a post about them to your followers and transfer what your post makes to them. The retention rate of people I've done this with has increased dramatically and they love you for it.
What ideas do you have to help new users?
Very nice initiative. I will also try to do these but I don't have the means give SBDs yet but I can definitely welcome all new steemians and repost their content. Nice work! :)

You are top of the line when it comes to welcoming people, from your pay it forwards, to being available to anyone who has a question, and also with your initiatives like Open Mic! I am so glad that we are connected - even if it's just through Steemit and maybe a meet up one day! :)

Hello, I think what your doing is terrific. You seem to be a caring and nice person. I am a newbie to steemit and my posting show it. With each posting I am trying to improve. I look for advice from others and continue to read posts. I do however notice that "one" word responses show little interest in writers posting in my opinion. Looking forward to following you and learning. Thank you for your time and caring about people!

You can follow the introduceyourself tag here,

The people mentioned in this post are actual friends of mine that joined Steemit. When someone I know personally joins I always make a post about them to help send some views their way. A little boost never hurts.

I think this is great! I'm glad to see there are people out there willing to help newcomers. I have been on here only a short time, and I almost gave up within the second week. It felt impossible to have my work noticed out of the multitude of other amazing work out there. If I'm ever in the position you are, I pledge to do the same. Thanks for making this a better place for the incoming users!

Thank you so much! I just read through your link, and it was great! Thanks for directing me there. I will check out all of those other resources as well. I think the biggest questions I have right now all have to do with formatting to make my posts more readable and user friendly. I've picked up a few things, but there's still a lot to learn! I learn more with each passing week. Thanks for taking the time to share this information with me. It's truly appreciated.
