Welcome to the community! I'm still a beginner, but I've found you have to follow people who post things that interest you and try to interact/provide feedback to build your reputation and follower base.
Looks like you crushed it with your first post, so I'm sure you'll have no problem!! It's cool to be able to follow people from anywhere in the world. I'm definitely interested to see what kind of things you'll be posting.
Thanks dear, I promise to post nice write ups that will not only be interesting to the ear, but a good and motivational one at such to make us achieve our aims, goals and objectives through this medium.
