Guys This 1 Tip Will make your Posts 1000 Times Better than they already are!

Use giphy.com

They Let you Freely use their Gifs on Social Media!
There is a TON of Amazing Gifs.
Use Google Chrome or Brave Browser!
Find your Gif.
Right Click + Copy Image Address.
Paste it wherever you want! Done.

Proper Tag's use is highly underrated.

Whenever you Click Post on your Submit a Story Page your post is then sent to New Section in every Category that you have Tagged and to the Feed of Your Followers.
So If you Don't have a big following, You have Only 3 - 50 Minutes to Make You First Power Upvote. ( Money Upvote )
If you Get the attention with your post and you make let's say $3, then steemit algorithm will now Move your Post to Hot Section.
If Your Post get's over 100-150 Upvotes and makes more than a few-hundred dollars( always depends on how many people are posting and which tags they are using, time of the day etc...) Your post is now Moved to Trending Section.
If you made it to Trending your post will generate lot's of money and many new Followers.
So Your first goal should be to Move Up to the Hot Section as soon as possible. Steem chooses to move up only posts that are generating money Upvotes.
Power Upvotes or Money Upvotes are given by People who Have Steem Power.

If your post is at the right category at the right time when someone with Power is Scrolling by and Upvotes you, You will go straight to Hot.
Tags have to be as relevant as possible ( I have done this mistake a few times myself )
Have 5 Tags at all times! if you don't have a big following. You want as many people as possible Noticing your post.
Now If that post didn't make it to Hot Section than it will go down fast and after 2-3 hours it will be completely dead, making you $0.01.

Small Real Life example from 10 Days ago.

When someone gave me an $8 Power Upvote 4 Minutes after I released the Post. Made it to 1st Place of Hot Section.
It was on the 1st place for about 4 Hours then started moving down.

First Let's take a look at Geography of Steemit Users.
2,7 Million Users April - 5.9 Million Users May.

Top 5

5: Australia
4: Germany
3: Canada
2: UK
1: USA

This means we should focus on these countries ( If you are creating content in English)
From 2:00pm EST - To 8:00 pm EST is the time when Most of these countries are awake!
Try to post at those golden hours.
If you ever want to do steem Now is Your Best chance to start. Why? Because the price of steem is still relatively low and most people don't know what to do here yet.
June was a record setting month for Steem by Registrations of New users.
Make no mistake, it will get huge with or without me, with or without you.
But now is your best chance to start
I am starting as strong as I can, would love to share with you how I have almost 900 Followers in Less than a Month.
After 280+ Posts I have learnt a few things

Reposting your Original content.

I haven't seen anyone here talk about reposting your own original content so I would like to share my opinion on that.
In the beginning you have very few followers so even if you write Amazing piece of original content you might not even be noticed.
When you submit a story, your post goes to "new" section and only few people will see your post there since people are posting all the time and your post ends up down on the bottom where no one will read it.
That's why I suggest until you have 300+ Followers, you should repost your older content with some changes. Add more information to your post, add more value and submit it again.
Is it wrong to repost? When you work 4.5 Hours on a post and only 4 people see it because you have 3 followers that's not fair to you and to other steemians.
If you are really sharing valuable content you should let more people see your posts to offer more value to more people I don't see anything wrong with that.
If you get unhappy comments saying that you are "spamming" kindly appreciate their passion, and explain why you are reposting and that you will stop as soon as you get a little traction going with your followers.

I have tested The waters for you in June!

Steem's Monthly Visitors. 2.7 million in April - 5.9 Million May. Steemit Doubled their traffic in 1 Month. Also 6 Minute average visit duration is a strong factor of growth.

First you gotta understand what makes you money.

Steemit Influencers. People who have a lot of Steem Power (they are best followers, best to comment to)
Find and Follow as many Influencers as you can and Connect with them, if you make friends with influencers they will bring you consistent upvotes which in this case equals lots of money over time!
Here you can find top influencers of Steemit.com: https://steemwhales.com/?p=1&s=power
Comment when posts are hot and don't have many comments.
If the post has many comments Reply to first Comment and comment there.
You only need the influencer to click Upvote, or even better reply to you.
Use attention grabbing Gifs/Images.

Me and Hive account@mirage were discussing effective Commenting a few days ago. He is using these tips and making money!

One of the Examples:

Important

Don't just Spam. You are wasting time. People can tell a difference between a legitimate Comment and a copy paste Robot comments.
