WooHoo OK I am officially starting to become excited. I have been slowly gaining followers through mostly writing various posts. Gaining followers was a slow process but I finally reached 200. I kept at it though even with the fall of Steem all the way down to 0.07 cents (gulp). There were days that I almost gave up to be honest and I have to say those were the darkest times.
Then one day Steem started it's rise out of the ashes. Like a newborn phoenix not only has it been gaining in value but also in popularity! After reaching 200 followers I changed up my strategy on what I was doing on Steemit and did more than just write. I actively searched out new Steemians who were introducing themselves to the site. I offered links in the comments such as
Here's some links that may help... https://www.steemithelp.net/
https://steemit.com/steemit/@igsamuel/how-to-succeed-on-steemit-quick-guide-for-beginners
Within 18 days time I arose from 200 followers to 300 followers.
I joined the @minnowsupportproject and P.A.L. on DISCORD https://discord.gg/HYj4yvw so a special thanks to 
Hive account@aggroed and I also joined steemitchat.com
https://steemit.com/minnowsupportproject/@aggroed/minnow-support-project-weekly-resteem-this-one-will-reach-over-1500-people
https://steemit.com/howto/@aggroed/steemit-tips-highest-value-activities-you-can-do-as-your-reach-different-stages-on-steemit
Still continuing with my previous formula and and implementing what I've learned from the last two links I've gone from 300 followers to 400+ follwers in only 14 days!
So I am going to thank the following Steemians:
