πŸ™‹My Experiences / 5 GREAT TIPS After 11 months on Steemit / All Original Photos and Content !πŸ™‹

in #steemit β€’ 8 years ago (edited)

πŸ™‹ THANKS FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT ! Lets Rewind ! When I first started on steemit in July 13th 2016 , I never even blogged before ! Just learning as well to use a computer was difficul t enough when I moved into town from the country as we never had internet out there, but is now available as of last year which is great! and I found using a tablet I bought just for steeming was much easier ! I never liked Facebook and only went on there to catch up on some family I have back east ,4 thousand miles away . My son signed me up on twitter but I never figured out really how it works , so other then send some steemit posts there and to Facebook I never go there !

πŸ™‹ But right from the start I fell in love with the steemit community which my sons told me about , and spent all my lonely graveyard shifts at my construction site as a security guard , blogging and sharing many posts on steemit from my Samsung Galaxy Tab E android tablet !

LETS REWIND : Heres 2 photos from 11 months ago when I first started on Steemit !!

πŸ™‹ The very first Steemfest in Amsterdam was in November ! I made this poster as my contribution to advertising it ! As I couldn't attend and am not sure if I can attend the second one in Poland . No passport and its very far from British Columbia Canada !

πŸ™‹πŸ‘ Tips or Helps ! : πŸ‘πŸ™‹

( 1 ) So that's just a brief glimpse of the many things I have done since joining steemit ! And what you can do too ! There's a ton of contests to enter , where you can possibly make steem or steem dollars on ! Its nice if you win and can build up your wallet when your new and just learning how things work around here !

( 2 ) Try to comment and respond to comments as much as possible ! it shows community support , and will gain you more upvotes or even resteems if your lucky ! also great comments can earn you a lot of upvotes at times , hopefully earning you even more steem or steem dollars in your wallet from a whale or dolphin ! And when you up vote your own comment , especially in contests , it moves it to the top of the page , so it gets better view a and hopefully more up votes!!

( 3 ) Just blog for the fun of it !! if you really love what your doing , the money will take care of itself ! Stay positive , dedicated , and dont give up ! anything worth having takes time , I started with nothing ! and brought no followers with me ! I dont even know anything about computers !! I now have 1,100 + followers im almost at reputation 70 , I became a dolphin and had over 11,000.00 steem in my wallet till I had to pay rent and accumulated debts after being off work for 2 months. Otherwise I was always a 100% steem power up person and advocated for it !

( 4 ) Stay connected with your followers and like minded steemians ! you can help each other out by upvoting and resteeming each other occasionally ! we will all go far if we work together and help each other out , and if you have questions , ASK ! Most steemians are more then happy to help out if they can .We are a very friendly bunch !

( 5 ) I noticed a lot of new members are posting their same post many times per hour or several times in 2 hours on Steemit Chat Post Promotion , also they are chatting a lot or asking everyone constantly for upvotes and resteems !! please guys , you are only supposed to post as close to once , per post ,every 2 hours there , and it is not for chatting , its for Post Promotion only and a brief reply or comments , there are many other areas in steemit chat for chatting ! Thank You !

πŸ™‹ If you have any further questions or would like to add anything else I missed , or would like to add , Please comment !! I would love to hear from you ! All up votes , resteems or follows are greatly appreciated ! Never stop steem ingredients on to the moon and back !! Woot Woot !!

I have been around this community for less than a week and I was trying to read some kind of real life story about steem without all the shiny things or hero pro etc etc advertising that just wanted to attract upvotes/followers and so on. I really like what you have done and I really enjoy reading this post. I would read more later on. Thanks for sharing it seems like a more closer to reality steem journey.

I love your quote: Ì joined for the money and stayed for the community`which is true of most of us: sustanability concept in lay man´s term!!! make steem dollars, power most up and use the remaing as reward for your hard work. Boy!!! you cook and grill like a superstar!!! I always enjoy your posts and greetings to you son for inviting you to steemit.

Hello @karenmckersie,
I am glad to see how you shared everything here. Also, I am happy to see your new laptop. I've been always onto the flip side of success and messed up my life again and again. Hopefully I can change my life just like you.

thanks for your kind reply ! The same with me , if I can do it so can you ! Stay positive , it takes time , Rome wasn't built in a day , but if you keep at it you will be doing like me in 10 months from now , probably sooner as there's much more people on here now then when I started! Good luck !πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘
