Intro :
Welcome everyone..You may be wondering about all these. Let me just clear some things..This is actually a series of sessions where I'll be discussing about the basic fundamentals as well as some crucial elements of Steemit.
But to do that we've got to start from the very beginning. The first few including this one may not be appropriate for everyone, as this is just the introduction and some info for new members..Though I'll encourage you to read this session if you like.. So, in today's segment we're gonna run you through the outlook of Steemit, just to shed some light to the absolute newcomers..& even if you're quite experienced, I'd still suggest you to stick with these series as I'll be exploring further subtle matters that might go a long to meet your needs...:)
[FYI: I've tagged this post in the "introduceyourself" so that the newbies can get in touch with these segments..will deeply appreciate if you can mention your friends or someone who you think will be helped with this information...thank you..:) ]
About Steemit:
Steemit is actually a social platform powered by the Steem blockchain & Steem crypto currency, where users are rewarded for their contributions to the community with digital tokens named Steem.
It is a place where your voice truly matters. But one thing you need to know is that don't ever expect to get piles of cash in your hand as soon as you sign up..I'd be really thankful if you create eligible contents & thus help grow the Steemit community. Just aim as high as the sky but keep your expectation for lower than you possibly can...& one thing I've learnt that if you're new than be sure t make some connections with people around the platform...Take it from me, it feels a lot great when your connected....You'll eventually find the euphoria you're looking for..:)...So let's get started...
Username & Passwords :
Once your account gets verified, you'll be given a password.. And as you already know, it's definitely not short..To hell with others, you yourself won't be able to remember it😊🙄..So be sure to to save your username & password somewhere off of your digital devices..
