I would imagine many do. Since this is not my first blogging rodeo (35+ years in tech here), I already knew how to launch "my brand" and how long it ~could~ take to get "rated" so to speak as not under OR over "rated" at the same time. So I just got here and went to work about building my presence, voice on the platform and reach.
I'm still ironing out my personal "steemit" style and brand, but here just after two weeks and a day or so, I think I'm finding my stride.
But I do think a novice blogger would be finding themselves VERY overwhelmed and underrated here. Can see that happening, for sure!
