Hello everyone, hope you are all doing well. I want to share with you all today some of the things I am doing now that can help you and I to build a following leading to success on the Steemit platform.
If you are reading this now, congratulations! Because you are one of the many EARLY ADOPTORS to this new revolutionary social media platform that pays you to write posts you are passionate about and engage in the community by commenting to other user's posts and upvoting others that you find interesting and who you want to help! So here are the list of the things that I am doing that will generate success here in the long term:
1.) Write 1 blog post a day! The reason I say this is because if you post too much in a day, your other previous posts may come unnoticed. If you post too little, the interest of your followers may suffer slowly. So posting one post a day gives your blog post a full day for some decent exposure to your followers.
2.) Post something you are passionate about but at the same time, that is useful for your audience depending on your area of expertise. Post anything you want really, just make sure your readers will care to read everything you have to say. Then the better the chance someone can comment, upvote and follow you. :)
3.) Comment at least 5-10 people's posts daily in the New Tab under "IntroduceYourself", find new users that just entered the platform and welcome them by saying what you like about their introductory post and wish them success! :) There is a high chance to get a follower from a new person after doing so, especially if you followed the new person first.
4.) Look up under new and find a blog that interests you and read ALL OF THEM from top to bottom so you can understand what someone is trying to talk about in their blog. Then respond to it positively. Give them advice if you know how and they ask for it. Do any response and engage with them so you know that you are looking out for their best interest.
5.) Look up trending topics and comment their posts too doing the same steps I just told you on new users, but be sure you know what you are responding to because they most likely have been on steemit for quite a while and they know whats a great reply or not.
You may have a chance to get the big whales from the trending page to respond, upvote and follow you but not as easy as a new follower. So perhaps comment on 10-15 trending posts a day. This is something I am trying to follow too when I have time.
TIP: Rather it be a new user or a very experienced blogger making hundreds and thousands of dollars on steemit, let them know to check your blog to see IF there is something that INTERESTS them. Leave it like that. No need to push your blog towards anything. If they like your posts, they will read it all through, upvote, comment and follow you.
6.) This is what I follow greatly! Anyone that comments your posts or responds to your message, I upvote every single one of them and respond to them as well. I even follow everyone that supports me on Steemit! Although you should not upvote more than 15-20 daily because your steem power will lower and needs a few days to recharge, but doing so will show your supporters that you appreciate their support.
7.) I have not done this yet but will soon, but invest as much as you possibly can afford on Steem Power. Put the money you can afford into it to give you better voting power. Because many people loves people who upvotes them and its worth a lot. They are sure to follow you so you can support them more as a power voter.
And that's all I am doing now to lead towards my future success on Steemit. I love the positive community here and you can learn a lot from other people's posts here. And we can support each other.
If there is anything else I missed, please let me know in the comments below. If you find this post valuable as a beginner or someone who did not knew these things I do, please upvote and follow me. I have a lot more to offer in the near future!
Take care, Steemians and God Bless U! :)
Good article,
Although I need to rectify that
In reality the Voting Power that decreases and recharges( in %) . Little difference. .

I'm new to steemit and I'm following all your advise here. I see how if you are consistent you can make it. Besides all of that its actually really fun!
Agreed! And I know you will do well! Amazing you have 38 on your reputation points being new here :) You are off to an amazing start!
Bud, very good information. I run a magazine for a community in Australia and I'd like to use your piece to get people into Steem. Please let me know if I can use this piece. I will credit your steem page obviously. Thanks @sidsun
Ohh that sounds very good, then yes please use it in anyways you have to, especially when it gets more people on this platform. If you can, also follow up with this post where I point out the lack of notifications on steemit and where they can find the replies sent to them, this will also help the newbies as well: https://steemit.com/steemit/@denoxblogger/steemit-needs-a-notification-system-how-to-check-user-s-replies-on-steemit-plus-check-your-follower-s-posts-everyday

Followed you :) Hope we can support each other! :)
You left out the most important step of all ...
Haha! Thanks for reminding me of that! :)
Appreciate the effort. Cheers!
(Btw, do you know by any chance a way to receive notifications as in facebook or something similar? I mean, do you get notifications when someone is commenting your post(s)? Because I don't receive anything.)
PS. sorry if I'm asking in the wrong section and perhaps addressing to the wrong person.
Again, thanks!
Sadly at this time, you do not get notifications, Steemit is still in beta and hope they step their game up soon. You will have to go to the replies tab next to comment to see if any replies was sent to you.
LOL @denoxblogger... great minds must think a like :) Because what you are doing I have found myself doing. I think your Post gives great advice.
The one day a post thing is something that people should strive to do. I know it is easier for some of us to do than others, but I think with practice and commitment anyone can do.
Again thanks for your excellent post and insight to what you're doing. I Resteemed
Thanks for your support and yeah, I learned this from other crypto YouTubers that gave tips on how to do well in Steemit. One post a day should be easy for me unless there are a lot of crazy big news coming in at once xD
This is really insightful and well written, thanks for the tips!
No problem! Glad this helped! :)
God bless you real good have been really looking for this for a while thanks for dropping this, I do appreciate, but still need more do't mind for a follow back.
Sure! As long as you post valuable content, I will be sure to support it as much as possible :)
Good info, I am new and trying to learn as much as i can here.. I need to see this kind of stuff. Thanks for the tips! and if you have time, please take a look at my blog. I look forward to seeing more
Sure! I am glad this post helped you! :) I will see what you have on your blogs as well. I posted a new one about Tether and the other on the bandwidth issue that you may want to know.^^ Welcome to steemit!
When you say 1 post per day do you mean something longer form?
I see a lot of short posts, single photos. things that would look short even on Twitter.
Long or short, it does not matter really, you can post whatever you want. This is basically what I do. Sometimes its a long article, and sometimes its a short post like a video I made.
great tips will keep you in mind you have my support and I hope yours will. follow you !!
Sure, I will be checking your content soon. Check out my Discord post on my steemit. Its one of my most recent one. You may be interested. :)
Thanks for the tips. I'm still trying to make headway on the Steemit Platform. Can I ask, if I have 21 steem in savings am I better off using all of them to power up? What happens when I have upvoted people and my steem power runs low, you say it recharges but will I effectively lose my 21 steem? Sorry for the noob questions. p.s I have given you an upvote and follow but sadly don't think it makes much difference as I have low steem power. Dan
No worries man and I am not 100% sure myself but as I see, the steem power does regenerate and should reduce the steem power too much at all. I posted a lot the last several days to weeks and still have around the same steem power number so probably not. It may lower temporaily but may go back up afterwards but I suggest you look up informations like I will on how the steem power is used exactly and if it lowers with time for real or not. I shall keep track of mines and if I know a bit more, I will write a new post on this.
Thanks this is useful
No problem, Kairosan :)
Such a nice post. Aww thanks. I'm new so couldnt figure out head or foot of this. I posted something though feel free to check it out, boss
