Hey zekepickleman, I am new to Steemit and found some really good videos by Hive account@flauwy that helped a lot. Not easy getting started though takes awhile to build an audience. Link to videos https://steemit.com/steemy/@flauwy/60-steem-video-tutorials-for-beginners-the-grand-steemy-collection
Hope they answer your questions. The only thing I can advise is to double check your post for mistakes. I noticed quite a few.
