ghayas,

Congrats on this great accomplishment. I think right now what you've achieved is much harder on Steemit vs a platform such as Twitter or Youtube since those platforms have many more users. To get 1,000 followers on Steemit takes much more engaging and quality content and work to get a higher percentage of the smaller number of active users here to follow you. I'm unsure of the bot effect so I'm ignoring that.

I hope 2,000 comes even faster!

Edit: FIRST!
