The official FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) is like a book on how the blockchain works! We advise that you read it, wait a day, read it again, wait a day, then read it again. You will soon understand all of it! https://hive.blog/faq.html

I would also urge you to network with others! The best way to build a support network on Hive is to vote/comment on other's posts. Leave nice, well-thought comments that will make them think, "Wow, I want to check out this awesome person!" If you read a poem, tell the author why you like the poem, what imagery spoke to you, rather than "Nice poem, bro!" Then, folks will come to your blog page to check you out. And then, have some good, quality content there that will blow them away and you will have instant followers! You can also meet other folks by playing one of the games on Hive (Splinterlands, dCity, Rising Star, etc.), networking with others in a few Discords, or posting in a community or two rather than just on your blog. Always read the RULES in each community before you post there, though, and make sure you are following their guidelines. 🙂
