I crossed two Steemit milestones today. I had taken an extended break from Steemit to focus on some family concerns and life transitions
Since becoming involved again in the community (about 4 weeks ago), I have seen an increase in my number of followers and Steem Power.
Steem Followers
Since mid December 2017, I have increased my follower total from about 550 to over 800. That is an increase of 250 followers.
Keys to success:
- Engaging new Steemit users' introduction posts.
- Offering an online course to new users that teaches how to format posts - Steem Markdown.
- Consistently replying to comments left on my posts.
Authentic engagement requires both time and effort, but I consider it a worth-wild investment.
Keys to future success:
- Building more meaningful relationships with existing followers.
- Focus on the quality of relationships, not just the quantity of followers.
- Interactive with sub-communities on Steemit, especially in the Discord channels. I currently interact with ..
Steem Power
Since mid December 2017, I have increased my total Steem Power from about 540 SP to over 1500 SP. This increase is the result of both purchasing Steem (which was powered up) and writing posts.
Keys to success:
- Purchased several hundred STEEM at about $2.50 (right before the crazy price increase).
- Consistently posting (at least once a day).
- Was upvoted by
for the second time. That was a cool feeling!
Keys to future success:
- Continue to grow as a writer.
- Be authentic in my writing.
- Provide content that helps others.
