Heyhey! I looked at your profile and noticed that you have made a fresh account so welcome aboard. Have one upvote from me and I hope to read more from you in the future!
I am struggeling, like you, to get those first upvotes on my posts so you could give Steemfollower a go. This exchange lets you earn up to 5x more steem than just upvoting by yourself! It's a simple and safe vote exchange that is free to use. I also recently made this post explaining that in more depth and it has become my most upvoted post yet.
