Are you like me? Do you feel a bit lost and over-whelmed at what to do next to grow as a steemit user? ME TOO! Never forget that you can also earn from commenting on steemit not just from posting!

But you have to know what and how to comment ! Do not leave random or meaningless one word comments like nice or great because others may feel like you are a bot that is giving an auto response to something that they have put effort into. Remember people that create good posts need good feedback. Did you know that the hot and trending posts are promoted posts because people paid money to put them there? I didn't either. When we write good comments it also earn reputation points and you will be more well known on steemit. So go ahead and comment with good and useful comments and get rewarded ! As well the more views, more possibility to get better upvotes and build your network of friends. Some great tips to grow in steemit are to try doing some of these:

  1. I go to steemit.chat and share the link of my post in ''postpromotion'' & ''PROMOTION'' chats.

  2. I go to discordapp.com to my and other servers and share the link in postpromotion channels.

  3. I share the post in Facebook in the best groups on facebook like : ↕ Resteem to post and others.

  4. And I reply to all comments. This shows you hold their efforts to read and comment as a value. Everyone want to feel valuable.

My friend @Clixmoney shared this point with me, and it really resinated with me. "In steemit we have a lot of very good, amazing, intelligent, smart and creative developers, writers and artist. So you have to reward them by using all the steemit tools that they created, and in doing that it will make steemit a better place. Using these steemit tools is very important for all of us because it will improve not just your blogging here on steemit,; but it improve all the community as we resteem, and upvote each other and we will all be the better for it."

So in trying to write something today I am trying to write content that will improve my adventure, as well as help others in this land of Steemit. This can seem like a mountain standing in our ways. That blank page can be crippling for many of us. And trying to find our places is changing daily with the more we learn and explore. Trying to make connections with other users seems to be the best. I am also trying to figure out who is actually supporting my efforts. by using some of the tools in the article https://steemit.com/steemit/@clixmoney/the-best-steemit-tools-for-my-dear-followers-and-all-steemit-users. . Try to be careful because I can shamefully admit that I have fallen for the you upvote me and I will return the favor. But shocker most get your upvote and your resteem and leave you like a fart in the wind. I am exploring new groups and places to connect with others that want us all to do better here are a few I like: Feel free to share ones you have in the comments below. That way we can learn and grow together. But here are a few I like:

  1. https://discordapp.com/invite/mXWRj6x
  2. https://www.facebook.com/groups/clixmoney ( this is a group that cost 0.15 steem but it has been helpful to get me started a little boost)
  3. https://steemfollower.com/?r=752

We all have to be useful and good people. We all have to be more social. In doing that remember to be kind to each other. Everyday try to grow and make improvements everyday. But the best advice I have been given and can give to you is never give up and just keep going on and keep trying.

At this point I am discovering that to find my own voice is not enough that we need each others to help us all grow.

We need each other's help to do better. So networking with others is our life lines to being successful on Steemit. I looked to the people that have helped me the most my friend Senouci Bouabdallah who has always been honest with me about ways to grow and become a better writer and steemit user. He offered me up an abundance of ways to improve my connections with others and some great resources for my steemit account. He runs my steem for resteem group through Facebook. He was extremely helpful by giving me more links and more thoughtful ideas. Many links that I feel (At this Time ) I am not even capable of using them yet, but soon as I improve and grow I know will be invaluable tools.

I will provide a link to this very helpful and thoughtful post. In doing so I hope to grow our group as well as help us all grow into a more profitable and rewarding experience here. All the links are very interesting hope you check it out and you can see what you think. https://steemit.com/steemit/@clixmoney/the-best-steemit-tools-for-my-dear-followers-and-all-steemit-users. I cannot thank him enough for his help. I highly encourage you all to go and check that out. He also sent me some other helpful links for making my post more interesting and more eye catching. I will have to play around with a few of them before I can say if they make a difference in my followers or upvotes.

1- How to add a profile picture to your steemit account
2- How to resteem on steemit
3- ♫♪ How to add music to your posts ♪♫

5- How to add a good link on steemit !
6- How to make your posts more popular on steemit
7- How to turn steem dollar into bitcoin

In conclusion my best advice is just keep trying and keep working hard to be better today than you were yesterday. Read post and look at how formatting attracts your eyes and your understanding of the information you are reading. Check spelling multiple times. I struggle with this one. I find I often have to go back and re-edit my post. I am working on this. And finally share in other social media. Here is what are said to be the best times to share on other medias. I really hope this helps. If it does please resteem this post so others can benefit from it and we can all grow. and always go forward with a smile.
