Hi @reactionz, I'm not an expert but here's my advice: Find something you like and know a lot about and write about it regularly (some people make much more than $5 doing that but sometimes it takes a while). Don't "follow for follow", it clutters your feed with followers who probably don't care about your blog and whose blogs you won't care about either. Find contests you like and enter them. Read blogs you like and comment thoughtfully. Good luck!

Thanks!

👍No problem!

I've been on steemit for just a couple weeks, so I'm definitely not an expert. But it seems like the best bet is to just keep posting. I've had some posts that hit, and others that haven't. I'm still working towards building a following, and eventually it will pay off. Post about things that interest you, and people with similar interests will find you. Best of luck, yo!

Good luck aswell!
