Hello #steemit, my name is Osarodion Dorcas, I'm 20years Old.

Who Am I

I am Dorcas Osarodion, a native of Edo state, Nigeria, but currently residing and schooling in Orel state, Russia. I am a bona fide christian, average in height and also a medical student and aspire to specialise in cardio in the nearest future. Below are some pictures of my friends and I.

Who Introduced Me To Steemit

Okoli Ebuka Michael A.K.A. @happymichael as many of you here know him. Well, this cool dude happens to be my old secondary school mate and also a good friend of mine. He introduced me to this wonderful and unique platform called #steemit and I decided to join as it would serve as a perfect means to express myself, share ideas and also get rewarded. I am tired of wasting my time on facebook and other social media. And now I'm all set to give all it takes to make #steemit grow and also receive my own reward. Tell me,

who likes to work and not get rewarded??!😉

Hobbies

• Reading: I so much love reading, and I am glad I have finally found the platform where I can read and learn more.

• writing: I enjoy writing as it serves as a means in which I express my self and also pass some messages across to people.

• Swimming (does #steemit have a swimming pool? Or is it just a reward pool?) Lol!😁

• Touring (#dlive, watch out for me) hehe!

Life Goals.

My goals and aim in life is to live a life that pleases God, make my family proud ,giving voices to the voiceless, and putting smiles on the lips of people, especially the less privileged.😇

My Contributions To Steemit.

For a start, I intend blogging about random things such as health(due to my field of study), inspirational posts, ideas that would go a long way in helping many on this platform. All i would need from you is to click that follow button and stay tuned to read amazing posts that will ooze out from my blog. I love you all.

I am still very new here and I dont know my left from right, tho @happymichael has promised to help me get along with the #community but I will also need you guys help too. I am not a social person😓, I have always liked keeping a cool and quiet profile but @happymichael said that would have to change in a way as #steemit is a platform that promotes socialisation.

He (@happymichael) also told me about some big names I am likely to meet on #steemit, he said they try their best to make steemit a home for newbies and planktons like me. So I have decided to give credit to them. They include:

@surpassinggoogle - @happymichael describes him as the man who has got all minnows/planktons at heart and he(@happymichael) also said many describe him(@surpassinggoogle)as the father of all minnows. @happymichael has told me a lot of things about you and I thankgod I am here to actually witness it.

@abigail-dantes -(@happymichael says she's his steem-mum and a psychologist) I am glad I would have to meet you too ma.

@nairadaddy - the owner of @air-clinic according to @happymichael. I think I have found my home😏.

@humanearl - @happymichael calls him his senior and mentor. Its a pleasure sir.

@swissclive - @happymichael told me about a post you made that helped him and would also help me and I am going to read it after this.

Other names include @gogogadgetupvote, @ejemai @artaddict @ned (ceo) - its a pleasure sir. @papa-pepper @steemsecrets @flysky @bait002 @valorforfreedom @steemstem @damarth @dobartim @runicar @mimy @desmonddesk @oredebby @karensuestudios @teardrops - finally, my tears would have value. @ogoowinner @tojukaka @stach and so many more.

I am just so ecstatic right now that soon, I will get to meet all these cool people and many more.

Your latest newbie @dorcasosas

Welcome to Steem Community @dorcasosas! As a gentle reminder, please keep your master password safe. The best practise is to use your private posting key to login to Steemit when posting; and the private active key for wallet related transactions.

In the New Steemians project, we help new members of steem by education and resteeeming their articles. Get your articles resteemed too for maximum exposure. You can learn more about it here: https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@gaman/new-steemians-project-launch

Hello, Dorcas, and Welcome to Steemit.

As a reader / writer, an international student, an idealist, and an ecstatic person who is motivated to do something constructive, you will certainly find Steemit to be a great platform. It's not so much a social network as a grand community with an amazing publishing platform.

And as someone who knows how to write, I'm certain that you'll have a large impact (eventually) and find true success here (eventually).

(I hope you can stay warm in Russia. I'm a Canadian now living in Thailand, and I often find it difficult to stay COOL! ☺ )


Below are a few basic points of advice re posting on Steemit.

  1. Longer posts are more lucrative than short posts. If you make a post of 20–30 paragraphs, it's more likely to earn rewards.
  2. Include some photos, images or graphs, to complement the text.
  3. Make sure the text and photos are formatted properly, so that your post looks attractive and appealing.
  4. Be yourself.
  5. Be interesting and informative.
  6. Create quality content. Steemit is intended to be a platform of quality content. (You will see many insignificant posts with meager content and no quality. Most of those of posts [called “shitposts” by Steemit whale Stellabelle] will earn few rewards and soon pass into oblivion.)
  7. Get online and start curating. Read various posts, comment on those posts you find interesting, and upvote those posts. That’s the best way to attract followers.

Hope this helps for now. Good luck, and Full Steem Ahead!

Thank you very much as this will go a long way in helping me on steemit

p.s. I usually do not follow newbies, until I realize that they have plenty to bring to this site. But immediately after reading your post, and then re-reading a few parts, I clicked "FOLLOW."

Just like you, ... "I am not a social person😓, I have always liked keeping a cool and quiet profile." I can get by in a crowd, but I usually prefer the company of one friend at a time. Or solitude. ☺

I thought Facebook was horrible, and after a short time on it, I abandoned my account. Steemit is an entirely different beast, where even quiet people like you can do well.

All the best!

Hmm.... Thank you

You have made me feel so much special today.. Thank you.. Remain a blessing. I just hope I can be your friend tho

You're welcome. One more point. Submitting photos in the various photo contests is a great way to earn a bit of Steem and to attract followers. Here are links to 3 contests.

@photocontests, organized by @juliank
Daily color challenges, organized by @colorchallenge
#tepchallenge, organized by @theexplorer

For entries into those photo contests, short posts are OK. But it's a good idea to add a bit of text explaining the photo, to give the post some meat and to make it more interesting.

Cheers!

Thanks so much @majes.tytyty for welcome my friend @dorcasosas with great goodies.. I just hope it doesnt stop after this.. I beseech u to also help watch her growth on steemit as me alone cant do it all.

I'll do my best. Of course, I have a few thousand other followers, but I found her intro particularly interesting and promising.

Cheers.

So you are the secret he was keeping from me.

Welcome dearie and enjoy your stay here.

Hi Thank you for #introducingyourself. Im myself quite new in steemit community but I realized that there are few things you could do to have a better start:
Mostly I invested a little bit in STEEM in order to purchase STEEM POWER and STEEM DOLLARS. Why? Its simply important. Without initial investment it will be very hard for you to build reach here and be noticed.

Im not sure if you ever heard about this site:
