I would have upvoted this comment, but asking for a follow in the comments section of someone elses article is considered poor etiquette. People will follow you if you engage them in comments, or if they like your content, not if you ask them for a follow.

I am really sorry, holy and solemnly am. I beg you pardon my manners just felt it was ok to you know ask for a follow back. And like @hilaryoki rightly pointed out am still new here, trying to find my way around. you know some do it better than others. And @gogogadgetupvote noted. Am sorry, lesson learnt and big thank you. @inquiringtimes . With love.
No worries. Steemit isn't centralized, so I'm just doing my little part by sharing that info with you <3
Thanks alot. You have a place in my heart already.
Hmmm.....at this stage I feel the urge to add my own observation by commenting on this timely reply to @ponpun
I think newbies should be given properly written steemit etiquette. Stemit etiquettes aren't usally part of the orientations given to new invites on joining steemit. Permit me to admit that I was quilty of this at the early stage in the commumity.But I realized that the more I beg for followers the lesser followers I was getting in return. Same goes with begging for upvotes.
So, I would suggest we have well written steemit etiquettes in one piece for newbies.
I second this notion. I have a post here that has some very good "commenting etiquette" if you care to check it out. The post is by @ogochukwu and it is linked HERE!
There is an ettiquete guide as well as a lot of other helpful information at steemit.com/welcome where new users are taken when they first join. However, there is a lot to take in there, and not everyone reads it all... So... There is no simple answer. I and others have written guides, but we are still figuring out the best way to share this info with new users. I would have been remiss if I did not tell our new friend that asking for follows is not good etiquette
