The best way to get noticed is to start to comment and interact with others. By now I have a good idea of who else is reading and commenting. I see them all around the site.
Also, I often end of following and voting for those I find engaging. Thank you for reading and I hope to bump into you around SteemIt.
I always tell people to comment when they ask how to gain followers! Not only is it an effective way to make friends, these are exactly the type of people you want to hang around because it's always engaging and rewarding!
