Followers
You want them. You need them, but what's the best way to get followers?
In our next series of posts, we will be covering the best ways to gain followers that are INTERESTED in what you have to say.
Meaningful Comments
put together an absolutely wonderful post on the value of meaningful comments and it's tough to beat what she has to say, but it's important to understand that if you're just starting out, you should not waste hours on a masterpiece of a post. No one knows you yet, and quite frankly no one is going to read your wonderful post no matter how well done the formatting or writing is.
To be successful on Steemit, you need to find your audience first.
So, who is your audience?
- They will be interested in the subjects you're interested in
- They will want to share information with you
- They will end up following you and reading what you have to say
That's great, so how will they find me if I'm not writing?
EASY!
You find them!
Take a look at the image below, and follow the arrows. See the tags? THAT'S how you're going to find your audience.
Click the tags and find the subjects you're interested in. Read some blogs, follow who you like, and INTERACT with that person by leaving a meaningful comment that shows you read the post.
When you make a comment that shows you read and understood the post, you're more likely to get a response AND that person is more likely to read your blog in return. It's a win-win. You've gained knowledge and a follower that is likely going to read your posts and give you that ever sought after upvote and/or resteem!
Not only that, but you're starting to build yourself a network. And THIS is the key to REALLY getting your blog firing on all cylinders!
