Welcome!
Here a few tips for starters snce you probably won't get any advice from those who comment under here, here's what I gathered thus far.
It's tough to make money at first so if that's your main cause to be on here grind that into your head straight away, that doesn't mean you shouldn't post content, you should, but enganging with others in the comment sections to grow your following is your best bet. Which categories?
Probably the introduce yourself one and the photography section but you can choose things that you have knowledge about too and then go from there just know that there is a lot of crap on here so plowing through that just to connect with others can be tough. Cheers.
Hello @thauerbyi Money isn't high in my priorities but thanks for the advice anyway. And yes, I'll definitely engage with commenters!
So that's the best way to get the best of steemit?
I'm not here to make money, but want to learn more about this social media blogging type platform and what I can do to take my part in it.
