Good writeup! It came to my attention that you have a new account so I wanted to give you my welcome. This deserves an upvote and I hope to read more from you in the future!
I know how hard it is as a fresh account so you could give Steemfollower a go. This exchange lets you earn up to 5x more steem than just upvoting by yourself! It's a simple and safe vote exchange that is free to use. I made this post to explain the system in more depth and it has become my most upvoted post yet.
Thanks for the welcome, Half Nija! I'll check your recommendations. Following you now!
