You don't get upvotes and comments, your blog isn't interesting for other Steemians, it seems you're just invisible here and post just for yourself.. It's usual thoughts of the most newbies of Steemit.

If you dont come here together with dozens of your friends and you don't have here friends among whales, then the beginning og your way will n't be easy.

I am an active user of Steemit just for 2,5 months (I was registered long ago but I didn't pay ateention to my blog), of course, it's too little to give proper advices, I still need advice by myself (if you have any - please share-)), but nevertheless I do see a rude common mistake of many newbies here - STUPID (SENSELESS) COMMENTS.

If they're written by bots - it's ok, but when a real person writes something if the list below, it's

Comments are smth like this:

great post
I like it, upvt me
plz upvote me
follow and resteem, upvote me
nice
cool
pls upvote ...(and link)

and so on...

Are you surprised you do NOT get upvote or any attention to your blog after this? Really?

The only way you WILL GET upvote or a follower after such comments, if you meet your friends who think the same and write the same ~~shit~~ comments)

I dont want to judge anybody, everyone can choose his own way here, but I get such comments sometimes too, and I never reply them or give upvotes, and in such a way I explain people why.

Please, don't waste your time on such comments, there's no a little chance you'll get attention writing them.

Steemit is a place of collaboration and interconnection, but of WISE one.

To get something (a friend, a comment, an upvote), you must give something! If you don't have Steem Power (btw I don't have it much either), it's not a problem, you can give attention, sincere interest and a wish to become friends-Steemians here. It's appreciated not less than SP I think.

If you can't spend 5-10 minutes to read a post a person has written, then why must he or she give attention to your posts and to you in general? So simple I think..

What is it? Egoism or stupidness to write senseless mess and wait for a whale to upvote him...

Just be yourself, be sincere, give attention and your real opinions on something you have read, and sooner or later you'll be noted.

Steemit is a place where all people are transparent. You can't see a person alive, but it's felt what a person he is: what he writes. how he writes, how he replies, what posts he makes and so on. It's impossible to make just an image for along time, your real face and soul will be visible, and then people will love or hate you.

I try to be sincere, to share my own opinions, my interests, my hobbies, pieces of my life, my life photos, I try to understand what people have written, what message they have put into their posts, and I enjoy it!

When you do what you like, then you don't think it's hard job, and it gives pleasure to you and people around you.

I came to Steemit without any friends. I had 0 SP. And still I am far from the top but I just enjoy being here and know interesting people, and I hope it will bring me success and satisfaction!

LOVE ALL MY FOLLOWERS AND FRIENDS HERE!
