@papa-pepper said something like that (about commenting) and it turned my Steemit experience around. Before that it was all about getting people to my blog but since then it actually has been bringing people to check me out, I'm getting a lot of upvotes on my comments which can easily add up to more than what my posts do and I'm having so much more fun than I did to begin with. Bringing people to my blog is pretty much secondary to meeting all the people and following the ones I like.
I can't remember who said it in their 'success' post but in addition to finding friends you might want to keep at least one post up and current on your blog so that the people you find who have similar interests as you do will have something of yours to read, comment on, and upvote.
When you say keep one post current what do you mean? A post or resteem daily?
Thank you
A resteem generally doesn't help you, it helps the person you resteem. It can show your interests but it's my opinion that if you don't have something of your own to read (that can be voted on/curated) you won't get a lot of repeat visitors .
I would suggest that you have at least one post or more that is < 7 days old. Your potential followers votes do no good after your reward is given (7 days after you post) and therefor, while people can still comment on your old post it is a waste of their upvote if they give you one on a post that is ≥ to 7 days,
