I haven't used Discord yet (or chat) but it is going to be part of my Steemit Evolution. First, creating more consistent content. Second, commenting more and building relationships. Third, POWERING UP. And finally, using some of the other tools like Discord and many others. It's so time consuming though but i'm committed to learning more in 2018, I know it's going to take time but I plan to stay committed and become more knowledgeable each day on using this platform more effectively!

Talking about building relationships, how do you do that brother? I am a 27 year old boy who left the job recently and trying to work out between two domains - Cryptocurrency & E-Commerce. I want to learn and explore many other domains as well but I also feel that one lifetime is too less. I hope I made a relationship right there. Have a great day Brother. 🤗
I've done a few things:
I've looked in my feed for articles that get lots of comments. I see if the person is commenting back and upvoting back. If they are, I will start following them more. I will make insightful comments on their posts. I will ask questions. And I will engage them. Overtime, a relationship is built. It takes time, but it works.
I comment a lot in topic areas that I'm knowledgeable in so I can add insight/value to the conversation. I can add my opinion. I try to comment on sports posts (NBA, NFL) as well as WWE. I try to pick out a few topics so that I can also use the time I've allotted toward steem to reply back to my posts and write new posts. Over time, you start engaging with the same people and you build relationships.
Structure your blog posts in a series that gain the same users over time. I'm currently blogging about my dog Floppy and his back surgery - I'm trying to pay for it via Steem upvotes. I'll share my link...you can see in the votes section at the bottom of my article, some people have voted 30 or 40 times for my posts! I've built relationships with some of my followers in this capacity as well.
Not sure I'm telling you anything new, but that's just how I go about it. I went ahead and followed you.
Thanks for detailing this out for me. I totally get your point that we have to engage with same users again and again to build a strong and healthy relationship.
Love the point number 3. I have recently started a series to help new people on Steemit who are struggling to make waves here. But first I need to understand myself the whole system. I will post an article as soon as I learn a new thing.
Followed you as well. Cheers again!
