Glad that this post will be useful in to future for your @steemitsamest . I have corrected the link so you can click on the image and it will head over.
The key thing to build your follower is never ever ask for follows or votes (and you return a favour). That's just back scratching and such followers usually will not last because as a minnow, you can never be able to please everyone
Instead, I would strongly encourage you to form really good solid original content of your own, and at the same time, meet some new friends here (just like how you have commented in my post here) by commenting on their post genuinely (not those "great post, follow me / come over to see my post" kind of trash, if you get what I mean) and then have your favourite writers to follow and make sure that they see your sincere friendship. (if they hardly reply your comments you can forget about it and move on and find someone who will equally value your communication)
Hope the tips above will help. And steem on!
See you around!
