How to Create that Steemit Follow Button
Wanted to do a quick micro tutorial on how to make the Steemit Follow button that when clicked will take a Steemit user to your Blog page to follow or read your posts. It is very easy to get done using a little Markdown and the steps are below:
1.) Find your Steemit home page
This is pretty easy, just click on the Blog section by clicking on your Steemit account picture:
Then copy the URL in the address bar, for example for my account it was: https://steemit.com/@dcolthar
2.) Put the URL of the image and your Blog home page into some Markdown
What you're going to be doing is embedding the Follow image in the text section of a Link in markdown, the URL for the follow image is:
https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/https://i.imgsafe.org/b87bb98157.gif
So our markdown is going to look like the below, for example for mine the Markdown is:
[](https://steemit.com/@dcolthar)
The code is a bit long so it spans two lines in this example but the result is a button you can put in posts or replies that takes a user direct to your Blog so they can Follow or look at your content. Hope this proves useful to some in the community out there!
Until next time,
Doug
