Here’s a few guidlines on steemit etiquette first.

Steemit is not like facebook, on facebook many people plagiarise and post others people’s work without even thinking about copyright.

This type of activity is frowned upon on steemit. Think about this for a minute, u are posibly going to recieve revenue for your post. If you are trying to gain revenue from someone else’s work then voters are probably going to downvote you.
If you are going to post good honest original content you will probably do well on steemit.
Also if you can promote steemit or contribute to the steemit community in a positive way then people will probably upvote you.

Your first post on steemit should be your introduction post. This helps other users to see that you are infact a real human and not a bot.

You should take a picture of yourself holding a piece of paper, the paper should show the word steemit and your user name and date.
Most users who follow this precedure gain more attention and then potentially more revenue.

Yes! Thank you for posting this! Honestly, I'm used to FB, and posting here is taking some getting used to, because it is both posting and publishing for profit. I've posted examples of some of my favorite poems, for example, because they were very inspirational to me or not well known, and gave credit where it was due, but put my own spin/take on them.

Sometimes there may be a temptation to plagiarize. To me that's just my brain telling me to get away from the computer for a while to play putt-putt, or go for a walk, etc. because its those times of refreshment that tend to generate new, original ideas later.

Me too, and i find more time spending in steemit than in fb this recent days..

Yep, it's a no-brainer if your posts are doing well. Still, I don't want to forget my FB friends.

I didnt forget mine too, ill keep visiting my fb, but unlike before i know steemit..

Helpful article! :)
Followed, upvoted and resteemed :)
