Finally! My First Post!!

I've been a silent member on here for over a year now but just decided to be active. I'm excited to be posting here. I've seen many brilliant write ups here.

Check check out Lagos, Nigeria. Home of Vibranim Valley

My Details

  • Software Tester
  • Work in a mid sized software company

I'm from Lagos, Nigeria. Nigeria is meant to be the giant of Africa for our population size and people but we find ourselves way back in terms of development. But on the Tech side, things are looking up. Our Vice President is currently in silicon valley along with tech leaders from Nigeria, so we hope for the best.

My interests are in software testing, crypto currency analysis and trading, career development and alot of things in between. I will be a regular supply of information so stay tuned.

Hello kollyns! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
