As we all know the first few weeks on Steem can be confusing and offputting.
If a newcomer isn’t lucky enough to find, or be found, by a friendly community, or at least a helpful guiding hand, there is a high chance they may give up and leave the platform.
This is one of the main reasons for our low retention rate that clearly needs to be addressed.
Improving the onboarding process and setting up a full mentoring system are areas that are being looked at - but they will take time.
In the meantime we’ve come up with a quick fix that we can implement straightaway.
But we need your help - and we can give you a reward for helping!
The Newcomers Community
We are setting up a Community for newcomers to the platform.
This will be a place with instructional posts, friendly faces and helpful upvotes.
Newcomers will be encouraged to post their ‘introduceyourself’ posts so others can come and meet them. Established Steemians can come along and give tips and advice in comments on their posts, and maybe even invite them to the communities they are involved with.
The Community will be part help centre and part welcoming committee. And the aim is to do it all on-chain through comments and posts without the need for people to join Discord that can be both confusing and offputting.
We need people to help with this new Community, particularly to go out and find the newcomers and invite them in.
Steem Greeters
We need Meeters and Greeters.
Steem Greeters, as they will be badged, will be expected to go out looking for newcomers to the platform, and invite them to join the newcomers forum.
The Greeters will be expected to provide a number of services within the Community including…
- giving advice and tips on writing a good introductory post
- general help on post formatting, markdown etc
- answering questions on technicalities such as powering up, Steem v SBD, upvoting and downvoting etc
- guiding newcomers to established communities that may be of interest.
The Greeters will also be encouraged to create how-to, help and guidance type posts for the newcomers community - particularly for any areas not already covered in existing posts. These posts will likely attract extra vote rewards from Steemit accounts.
To encourage people to volunteer as Greeters we will be giving each person selected a direct delegation starting at 1000 SP.
The delegations will be direct to their account and will be ongoing as long as they continue in the role.
Greeters can also make posts introducing the newcomers they have brought to the Newcomers Community each week, and giving progress updates on previous ‘recruits’.
These posts will be rewarded with votes from Steemit accounts. They will also be used, along with other observations, to assess how well the Greeters are performing.
The plan is to have an increasing delegation scale to reward the efforts of the most dedicated and hardworking Greeters.
How to apply to become a Steem Greeter
If you are interested in becoming a Steem Greeter please make an application post giving details of…
- your experience on Steem
- any languages you speak, and the level of fluency in each
- what country and timezone you are in
- any communities you are actively involved in
- why you would make a good Steem Greeter.
Please tag your application post with #steemgreeterapplication and put a link to the post in the comments below.
In the first instance applications should be made in English, but we will be expanding this to other languages shortly.
We will be recruiting more Greeters each month, but for the first round applications should be posted by midnight UTC on Thursday 30 April.
Four Steem Greeters will be recruited in the first round.
The Newcomers Community and the Steem Greeters is a new venture so it will likely need some tweaking and adjustment as we go along.
We welcome any thoughts and suggestions on the project.
The hope and the plan is that this project will help to make newcomers feel more welcome on the platform, help them better understand how Steem works and encourage them to stay.
This will be one part of a strategy to improve the retention rate.
Thank you,
The Steemit Team

Hello @ciska,
Thank you very much for writing out this comment! While I appreciate the sentiment, I intend to personalize my comments to their respective posts to demonstrate a commitment to reading and understanding about new users. It would be fairly easy to set up a bot to comment your comment though!
In regards to the Steem Exclusive tag, I do not want to try to force new users to pick sides right away. I am hopeful that their experiences on Steem will trump their experiences on Hive. In addition, I don't believe @steemitblog specified that I should be actively seeking and promoting Steem Exclusive newcomers. I think it is important to remember that you get more flies with honey than with vinegar. I have commented on several introduce articles that were also on Hive because I think it is important to learn from the mistakes of the Hive developers, and not burn bridges before they can be crossed. I do agree that Steem exclusive content is important, but I think it is important to take it one step at a time.
Lastly, please feel free to check out this post I've made about an idea for a Steem-Greeter Achievement System. I think this will help to teach users more about Steem, and hopefully lead them in the direction of Steem exclusive content. I would love to hear your ideas!
Best regards!

Thanks for your thoughts and I really really like that this is discussed!
YEAHH if you have time to welcome them personally go for it. I only think its a good idea to add this under your own welcome message. This info is just a simple guide to push them in the right direction, and that they get in contact with people who are passionate about steem. New users, if they double dip, we have to give the BEST experience possible!
I completely trust your judgment on how to achieve that.
Steemexcluse tag is just to promote Steemit, I feel that people post original content on Steemit and put time and effort in it, they also should get rewarded. (Because there arent 1000s of new users every day, we want to reward Steemit users in general. It doesnt have to be that THEY are steemexclusive, the content has to be imo.
Thanks for thinking with us and your involvement!

That's exactly what a bot called @cn-hello we created for CN community would do.
It searches all newcomers who written in Chinese and replies to the posts. In the reply, it would tell the newcomers some basic rules about RC, plagiarism, and where to find us if they have any issue. Also a link to our Steem Guide handbook: https://steemh.org/
It makes a daily and weekly progress report.
This bot is working great and save us some time to greet newcomers manually. But the main problem isn't there aren't enough people here to greet and guide newcomers, it's currently we don't get many newcomers.
Looking at this chart, it shows how many newcomers @cn-hello has welcomed since May 2019. Since the HF21/22 (Around October 2019), less and less newcomers joined.
I think steemit should focus more on instant signup and new users RC issues.

We reward the good introduceyourself posts not the APPICS and the 10 word count ones, the ones with sign and we sort out the abusers and the vote farm entries.
We do damn good!

Definitely a solid step to onboard new users but it needs to solve root issues to ensure long term success
Every new user gets confused with 4 different keys, so there is a need for universal password (an easy to remember password) just like other social media so users can login to their accounts from any where and whenever they needed to be active on steem. Right now due to the long keys, either they are stuck to particular machine or phone or will have to remember this long enough key to login to some other system. This is where steem lacking behind as compared to other social media so it needs to be sorted somehow.
There needs to be a referral system with atleast 10% for affiliates so more vibrant campaign can be made and in return promoters can earn long term rewards for their efforts. Right now curation/author split is 50/50 which can be made 45 each and 10% can go to affiliates. This will help boost things a lot.
Free and instant signups should be promoted through all dapps and steemit site. DLIKE has already taken a step towards this and have an instant and free signup through email verification for new users.

There already is a master password. From this master password. all other keys are derived. An easy to remember password, is an easy for a computer to guess password. Fortunately, browsers and password managers can memorize passwords for you. The SteemKey extension keeps the keys off the websites.

When I started in Steemit 2 years ago there were a bunch of people helping the newcomers that introduced themselves at #introduceyourself, now I don´t see it very often. I know a spanish community that is resposible of bringing a lot of spanish-speaking newcomers and teaching them the basics, them they teach how to introduceyourself, markdown and they answer your doubts or any question on discord.
So I nominate @mayvil of @mayvileros to be a Steem Greeter

100% Agree to all points mentioned. I just wrote in this post my experiences when I first joined Steemit in 2017. I must say, Steemit has improved a lot since 3 years ago and it became even more complicated due to the emergence of Dapps & Community tool.
Steem has so much layer that a "new user" must patiently peel in order to understand fully. And understanding it alone is a painstaking process.
The Meeter/Greeter initiative could potentially fix that issue or at least improve the experience that a “newcomer” will have.
I like this solution. Well done Steemit Team, kudos!

Indeed.
If you ask every non-tech or blockchain/crypto newbie Steemians about their first-hand experience with Steem, I believe we will reach a consensus that they find it really difficult and it could be the reason why some new users never continue their journey.
It's something that I hope we the Steem community must workout to improve the user experience.
We need more users and more engagement so that investors will see the potential of the Steem blockchain.

I would suggest you to broaden up your communication , to users , witnessses , investors . so that we can be on the same page , i don't think doing contests , asking people to write will really help (Yes they will keep them engaged - but till when . ) I hope to get a responsible and serious answer to this question --
i am self voting this comment so that it can stay in the top for some time

War?
The war is still very hot my dudes... In the last Weeks Justin Sun and Binance kept going all out vs TheBlockChainThatIsNotAllowedToBeSaidHere. We have seen massive DDOS attacks, crazy coordinated drops of TheCoinThatIsNotAllowedToBeSaidHere - so called Money Attacks. Even Exchanges that did not officialy trade TheCoinThatIsNotAllowedToBeSaidHere perticipated in that attacks.. it was too obvious. And on top of that Binance and CoinMarketCap (basically binance too), refused to rank fair or distribute the granted airdrop.
It is really pathetic,.. and the whole world is watching. That is why TheCoinThatIsNotAllowedToBeSaidHere is pumping. STEEM is behaving like a villain.
Sorry bud, that's just the way it is.

Thank you for your comments. There will be more announcements soon.
But not everything can or should be coming from Steemit. Some of the issues you mention are for the witnesses to determine.
Engaging with the top 20 witnesses would be useful as well.
Just saw that you are now looking at switching to 0.22.8888. Have you had any interaction with the top witnesses over that?
Thank you

i agree that top witnesses should be key helpers for the development of steem .
Regarding switching to 0.22.8888 , yes i have talked to few witnesses top and backup as well , and i know that retaliation is okay as of now . i even suggested to do another SF to completely null all those accounts burning all the funds and stabilize the network with a stable version

Do any of the top witnesses attend the Steem Witness Forums that @greenhouseradio is organizing?
I see there is another one on 10 May. It would be good if the top 20 witnesses could attend that to discuss these issues with the community.

It is not that easy to recruit new members, to take the first steps with them and to bind them in front of everyone. I have been doing this for at least 2 years. It is very time consuming ! There must be simply made some changes.
The most important thing is to make the access to Steem easier and the handling of the frontends must become more self-explanatory.
Especially an age fund 50+ is very interested and also mostly wealthy and would invest. But here a forum has to be created in which people are actively supported. Whether a Discord is the right way in which all possible groups of countries meet is the right one ? As a first point of contact that may go, but then personal support is necessary.
Over Bot's into the Discord one can automate the members there simply a command enter and then by PN the desired information receive. So one could also request a new account.
Over special coupons acquirable by PayPal then also packages with x Steem can be booked which can be redeemed. To convert and program all this is realizable and was planned by me already one year ago.
Steemit inc. must here simply money or larger delegations assign the people also convert that. It is a special task that also requires trained personnel. Be it in the area of member support or programmers who don't program suitable apps for Steem or Discord.
I will write a detailed article about it, because with this topic is also very important.

I am in contact with few Indian steemians with 100+followers , currently I am trying to negotiate with them if they will resteem this translation then it will help a lot, but they are saying they doesn’t see any benefits in this why they do that,
Still few left to talk I am trying my best,
There is another way like if @steemitblog mentions me telling people that I am translating in Hindi

Why a 1000 SP delegation? I'm not saying its a bad idea to increase retention but 1000SP is like a 0 or 1 cent vote, not sure what that does for anyone.
