Hi Simon, nice to meet you! I'm new around here as well. My advice is to build your follower base as you keep creating content. Meet as many new people as possible. I followed you and look forward to your articles about PHP. Are you working on anything with blockchain? I know that many users on here are interested in that topic.
Nice to meet you too. I didn't work with blockchain yet, but i have few thoughts about connection of wordrpess and steemit. If it didn't forbidden, of course.
