Wow! Seriously, out of curiousity, why did you leave steemit for 9 whole months???
I am happy I stumbled across your post, because I must confess, I was one of those spamming posts (lol) But then, I saw that it did not pay because apart from the fact that people were always warning me, I did not gain anything from it knowledge wise.
Thank God I am now a changed fellow (lol)
I have discovered that instead of following many people, commenting on all their posts and spamming, the right thing to do would be to read and understand, then leave a good comment if need be.
I love your write-up, and having followed you, I would want to be one of your most consistent followee.
Note: I am not happy you left steemit for 9 months o... If you had not gone, you would have been a whale now
I left because - I got very little views although I tried a few ways to keep my blog interesting. However it was not enough. I was sort of lost too - it must have been apparent from my blog. Life is busy as you know so I place my energy elsewhere. However I kept an eye on Steem and sometimes Steemit. I missed it - really. I am now back and learning that engagement matters.
Happy that you are a changed fellow. I find that leaving comments on random people's posts does not build a "relationship" - then I think what's the use. Hence I have also changed my ways. I hope you will become a consistent followee (lol) - I will be yours too.
