So you want to be successful on Steemit.
It's much easier then you may think.
It takes time to get noticed so don't expect to be successful over night.
It will probably take weeks if not months to gain decent rewards but you will get there with a few simple steps
FIND AUTHORS YOUR INTERESTED IN
Take the time to scroll through the different feeds and popular tags and find content you are interested in and follow those authors.
By doing this their content will pop up in your feed and more then likely if your interested in their stuff then they have the same interests as you. Meaning you can offer valid input on their articles.
GET NOTICED
The best way on Steemit to get noticed is to engage with the community.
Take the time to read an article. If you have valid thought provoking input, comment and engage with the Author.
This is the best way to get notice and hopefully gain a follow from a Steemian that will find your content interesting too.
Don't comment for the sake of commenting, you know the "nice post" or "I followed you, follow back" comments. In fact never ever ask for a follow back, this is irritating and will most certainly not get you a follow back.
I repeat engage with the author but only if you have a valid comment.

QUALITY CONTENT
Only post quality content, if you have nothing of value to post then don't.
If you post for the sake of posting, more then likely you'll only earn cents anyway and if your followers see more poor posts then quality they'll more then likely mute you, meaning nothing you post will be visible to them.
Posting poor content just for the sake of posting will damage your success rather then help it. It's better to wait.
That's it three very simple steps for the best success on Steemit.
Don't expect immediate success, this will be your downfall.
Keep at it and you will succeed, don't give up. It may take weeks or months before you start to gain traction in Steemit but success takes time.
I hope those of you that are genuinely interested in Steemit as a blogging platform heed this advice. You'll thank me for it later.

This quote really caught me. I'm going through something that really needs to be started. Thank you for posting this. Followed, resteemed and upvoted.
Yeah it's a great quote, one for the wall even!
Great advice. Thanks for posting the links to the help the minnow initiatives. You might want to add project Curie and @crowdfundedwhale.
I never even thought of those but the crowd funded whale is pretty expensive for newbies, do you use it?
I do use @crowdfundedwhale. It cost me 100 STEEM, which at the time was worth around $15. That was before the price hike. They've dropped the price down to 75 STEEM now. I guess I got in at the right time. I think it's good for minnows to know about, just like with all the other minnow support projects, and then they can choose to participate or not based on their situation and goals.
That's very true I shall have to add it to my article
Thanks for the informative post. You are very much correct about your article regarding post and comment in steemit. I am a new joiner and poor making a blog but every time i've read many blogs little by little i start to learn about blog. Thanks for the advice @alexrickard86
Your welcome 😀
Will check out those links at the end. I am really excited about Steemit. I have always wanted to start a sort of blog but never found an appealing platform until this. Wish I was here months ago. But it's still the beginning I think. I made my first couple posts today!
Steemit is only just over a year old, it hasn't even gotten started yet, establish yourself as a quality blogger and you will earn well when the masses arrive, and I would definitely recommend checking out the links, they are a big help to minnows
nice post, i like :)
Thanks
Thanks for the tips. I am doing my best to gain a following now.
Just follow the steps and you will get there, it takes work and effort but it will be worth it
I am so tired of seeing the trending and hot tabs filled up with Bitcoin and Crypto stories. Lets get some real and valid content on this site. Thanks for the tips
You have to remember that the majority of people on here are bitcoin and crypto people so that's what they are most interested in as I am myself. More then likely as I did myself people found steemit through their interest of crypto

Your welcome and thank you
It's disappointing to pour your heart into an article or do heavy research only to receive a few pennies or even nothing for your time in the beginning. But like you said, it takes weeks or even months to gain traction on here. Consistency works, just like with everything else in life.
Thanks for the links at the end. I'll check them out and keep plugging away here.
Oh believe me I know it's hard but keep at it you'll break through, everything takes time
