Do you have existing social media friends? When I came into Steemit, I spent a lot of time recruiting my Facebook friends to join Steemit. That's one reason why I had people following me in here. They followed me from Facebook into Steemit.
Steemit is more group and social oriented than people realize. It's necessary to branch out and make friends who are similar to you. Friendships actually create more stable followers.About the #yunk tag, you will have to ask the members of the #yunk channel in Steemit Chat. Yunk has more to do with an ego-less kind of existing, and is more about not judging others......if you understand the concepts of Taoism, you'll understand yunk.
My best advice: knowing your true self, having goals that you want to accomplish by working together with others will get you far. Steemit still has lots of problems. Instead of focusing on people seeing your blog, I think shifting to solving problems that lots of people have in here can get your farther.
Love your best advice! Thanks for taking the time to help. Probably the best I got over here. Will definitely keep it in mind every time I log on to Steemit. Thanks @stellabelle! Thanks so much! <3
