My advise for newbies is.
There is nothing to it other then post quality content, engage in the community not just by posting a generic comment, read the article and add a comment of value and the last thing is don't give up keep trying it takes time to get noticed and if you've only been on here a week you can't expect much more.
Oh also don't add everybody in the hope of a follow back, only follow people that you genuinely like their material and people will follow you the same.
All the followers you want know exactly what your doing when you mass add people and they won't follow you back it's pointless.
You want genuine followers not just people that clog your feed

Agree that you shouldn't follow everyone, just to get a follow back, but after about a month I did Follow a ton of people in the hopes of meeting new interesting people faster, like you, and the above post, I may have never met or seen your stuff, cause of the feed list is not perfect atm, anyway just a reply from one of your followers^^ post here Resteemed!
I'll admit I used to follow everyone that followed me until I realised it's not a good idea because half the stuff you see you don't want to see and half the stuff you want to see you won't because of the amount of posts on your feed.
That reminds me I need to clean up the people I'm following
Lol, since I'm new I do follow all my followers, to see how they post, but atm missing feeds is just normal, mostly due to time, but alot is because of my internet at some points in the day..thanks for the reply! btw if i do see like porn or stuff...rare...I unfollow.
Trust me don't only follow the ones that really do interest you. You'll thank me for it later!
I did that on Youtube...but on steemit, to jump up a train car or 2 I do need to see lots of content, and learn, as of now I have stopped following unless I enjoyed the content, but bout a month ago, I decided to follow all of a bloggers followers to see what would happen, jumped up to 537 follows as of now, gaining bout 20 a day...I do weekly series mabe you would enjoy, check out my newest release here:

And I will take your advice to heart and make good decisions from now on^^
THANKS!
I'll give it a look when I get home 😀
Thanks for the Resteem @larutanton. It's good to follow people you like their contents.
Yours is one of them, I only resteem content I think might help, or be enjoyed by my followers^^ Peace, thanks so much for the reply!
You are welcome @larutanton.
"You want genuine followers not just people that clog your feed" I love this comment so much.
People will just make a comment like "I followed you, follow me back". I don't use such avenues to pick people I follow.
Having a lot of people clogging your feeds is the reason why people with high followership get little notice on their posts.
Thanks so much @alexrichards86 for this comment.
Yes it's pointless I don't add any of the "I follow you, you follow me people" I also only add people I find interesting from reading their post.
You've chosen the right path.
Steem On!!!
Surprisingly some people do not see "I follow you, you follow me" as basic steemit etiquette. I have only been on steemit for a month and am also surprised at quite a few generic posts or the ones that reply to a video post that is not possible before they could have watched the video.
Yes or the "nice post" or "good post".
They ain't fooling anyone but themselves, if your gonna comment on an article at least have the decency to read it
"or the ones that reply to a video post that is not possible before they could have watched the video"
That's true @newsdesk. I saw someone make a comment on a post that was not up to 3 minutes. And on the average, it would take at least 5 minutes to read the post. The author of the post had to ask him if he read the post.
