Effort needs to be placed on the fact it takes time to build up a following and you have to create good content. Its not get rich quick.

Exactly. I think people come here thinking they'll make $100+ per post overnight and it just doesn't work like that. The only ones who can do that are those who already have large followings on other platforms. If that's not you, then it will take months to build your account up to that level. People should see it first as a platform to share content like any other, making money should be secondary...unless you have really good content. I've been fortunate enough to make good money and I'm a new Minnow. This is only my 2nd week and I've done well for myself.
I think it also depends on the niche you enter into...and you SHOULD have a niche that has some sort of community already built in. Too many people come posting about random stuff that's not targeted towards a specific group. Then I think a lot of people aren't active in the chat rooms and don't actually build relationships with people.

That's spot on. I get so many "follow for follow" requests, they don't realize you have to build relationships with people. I will never forget when I decided to not give up and continued making thoughtful comments, a Whale gave me some wonderful encouragement back and an upvote.
It was a refreshing turn for the better and really motivated me to keep going. So to any new bloggers reading this; hang tough, get involved in chat and comments while continuing to create original content. Learn from successful people and lets help grow this awesome community! :)

New minnow here (sorry about the silhouette... we are a website and will be placing something proper that represents who we are in time). There are chatrooms?

There are a number of chat rooms. Steemit.chat is one and Discord has a slew of servers and groups to join

I didn't know there was a chat that's awesome. I'm pretty much doing what I'd be doing on Facebook with adding some additional content. I rather attempt to get paid for something that I was already doing for free. I love learning new things and sharing my thoughts with others.

I Agree with you.creating a content that everybody love is not an easy task.It need some effort and time

My advice on that is just be yourself and write about what you know without expectation of an upvote. If you get upvoted it's icing on the cake.

Hey thanks for this post! I'm new and was contemplating my first real post ..in exploring the platform i see how a niche can be extremely helpful in creating a following.

The problem is who will read 3 page long content of everybodies all the time.
I don't waste our time to read all long posts and not everybody is here are content creator. Thats why. The blablabla problem

Yes, I get what you are saying, but most people are too lazy to do that. So, that is why the number of steemians would never match that of Facebook. All the lazy bloggers will leave, and only the strong bloggers with good following would remain. I don't know whether that would be good or bad for steemit though.

I think the issue we're having is that more people are coming to Steemit to post content instead of coming to the platform to absorb it. I'm unsure what would help retain content creators to stay on the platform to absorb content but the first thing I noticed when I first came on the site was that it almost felt like it was difficult to find interesting posts. I was able to find TONS of articles, but it was a hassle to actually search for.

I joined mainly for this reason. To follow some people I follow on other platforms but unlike places like YouTube, here you can make a detailed and articulate response that can be heard and hopefully contribute something.
I created an article (my first post) which I entered into a competition. I found it a great way to get started, and helped focus my introduction post but I am happy just engaging in the discussion ATM.
I am glad that you said this as I was feeling pressure to create posts but seeing people say that just absorbing the platform for a while is OK makes me feel better about not trying to build a brand just to be on Steemit. The money isn't relevant to me but it seems that most tutorials are aimed at the content creator types and not just the average consumer. I am enjoying just reading and commenting on Steemit.

Hahaha, you are absolutely right. Most of the posts here are pure junk! Maybe 1 out of 100 posts is useful and interesting.
