I noticed that most new Steemians either hardly engage with their followers or takes time to revert to them. I did this too when I first got on board.
Do you know it is IMPORTANT to engage with your followers to appreciate them for their time to read & commenting on your posting and for their generous Upvotes?
Without them, many of us won’t be where we are today - on Steemit. Good or bad the comments, these people will either share their thoughts or information that may be useful for you or other followers.
So, what do I mean by Engaging?
Engaging means interacting or establishing a meaningful contact or connection with. In this case, people that left comments on your postings.
Even if we hardly know some of them, it is good to acknowledge them back whenever they leave comments. You will surprise to learn if some of them eventually becomes one of your best buddies in Steemuniverse!
So how do you get notified on this?
1) Install a GINABOT

She looks like Medusa isn't she?
GINABOT is a notification system to notify you of incoming new comments, mentions, new followers, unfollowers, new posting by Steemians or tags that you follow and lots more. You may learn more about GINABOT by following it on Steemit, https://steemit.com/@ginabot or read below articles by other Steemians:

2) Check Comments & Replies
Another way is to check is to click on the COMMENTS/REPLIES on your profile.
By clicking either these two, you will be able to read comments & replies that others left for you and on which posting.
There you go. Don’t forget to do your part and engage with your followers/friends! You may think this is less important, but truth is you need their support to earn you votes and keeps you going.
Something About Angiechin28
Angie Chin is a Mom with a mission and founder of WonderWomen.Asia (coming soon), the first online portal in Malaysia that connects Women to affordable online learning, community activities, shareable contents, events, jobs and go-to market opportunities. At home, she’s a mommy to a 10 year old daughter, 6 furbabies + a grown babe. She loves travelling, cooking, exploring new food, reading and watching re-runs on Youtube.
Regularly posting up her ramblings and sharing contents (current favorites are Facebook & Instagram), she fell head over heels with Steemit after realising it’s the only platform that allows ANYONE to earn cryptocurrency by creating and posting up contents, even by liking, voting or commenting other people’s contents!
Whatever you do on the platform, you will earn. Isn’t that awesome?
To start earning, sign up for Steemit already! Post up your original contents and you can almost start seeing the ka-ching in your account before you know it. Best of all, it is FREE (Love the word FREE).
Life tagline (for now): Never be afraid to try anything once!

A very good reminder Angie.
That reminded me that I haven't been engaging with you for a while too... ahahaha!
I'm excited for your project WonderWomen.Asia too, wish you a smooth journey!
Yes!!! How are you @roselifecoach?? Join us soon in our babes events. Welcoming all ladies on steemit!
I'm good! Yes, will keep an eye on your events, hope to make it one of these days!
Yes, will relaunch the portal real soon! Working on a lot of contents for now. Hey, would love to have you on board as one of our platform's coach/mentor if you are keen!
Yeah, it sounds interesting, let me know what you have in mind and we can discuss more about it.
Very true about the engagement part, babe. It is a matter of communication for long term, not just upvotes.
Yes, Steemit is about community building and relationship too.

Thanks for the reminder dear. At times I would forget to do the engagement part - I check most of my social media apps after work or on leaves in the middle of the night..
Yes, do it anytime you feel free to. But never leave a compliment, comment or feedback unattended. That is how it should be :-)
That is so true! Steemit is not a 'lone ranger' sort of thing, that is unless u invested a lot in Steempower but Steemit is a community platform. And because of that, no matter how introverted we are, we have to ENGAGE with Steemians.
Thanks for writing this article as a reminder to all even myself. This right here is one of the ways to be successful on Steemit
Yes thank you bro @zord189. We all need to be reminded sometimes, even myself included. Thats why this platform is awesome, we get paid to engage at the same time - unlike Facebook, lols! (Sorry Zuckerberg no offense). I like steemit because its not all likes, photos and videos, but something much more than that. You get to learn new things too.
I would like to engage with everyone here too... Hi!!!
Hello @joelai! Lols
Hi... 🤗🤗🤗
