Hey, I am so sorry that this happened to your face! I hope it will soon get better...
Since you're new on steemit, here's some advice I give to newbies on steemit:
- never just copy a text or publish a photo/video without explanation. Always add some text (you did that just fine)
- Always use all 5 tags for more visibility.
- here is an interesting site where you can look up the stats of your account and others.
- this is another stats site where you can see your reputation and what to do to climb up the ladder. (commenting other posts is very important).
- commenting other posts is very important because you get "curation rewards" which means Steem Dollar from the pot for the article as a reward for the interaction.
- learn the Markdown styles to format your posts (you can find how it works in a link on the right side below the text box)
- A lot of votes on steemit come from bots that you (or others) can pay for a vote. Depending on the bot, you end up with more $$ than you had before. The best bot I know about is the @minnowbooster. On his website, you can look up how much you can send him for an upvote (it's the big chart at the bottom).
- All bots work pretty much the same way: You go to your wallet and click on the little arrow next to the Steem Dollar amount. Then click on transfer, fill in the name and the amount and add as memo the URL to the article for which you want an upvote. Very simple.
- Here is a site where you can compare the performance of difference upvote bots.
- There are also resteem bots, but I don't find them too useful and don't know which one is good.
- Be careful with your password and watch out for scamming attempts. Several big accounts got stolen and now they try to lure others into giving away their password by posting comments with links to fishing sites.
I will follow you now. (<- always add that to a comment when you intend to follow the person who wrote the article. This way, you increase the likelihood that they follow you as well.)
I hope I could help and if you have questions -> just ask;-)
