I will continue my advice series. I see that a lot of people need them because I have more followers and more people joined steemit now. I see mistakes made in new posts and even in hot and trending ones. I don't really care about how much people earned, but I care about the quality and the interaction.
Most people here worry mostly about upvotes. They don't care about the quality as much and the only goal for them is to be upvoted. There are even people who'd rather have a lot of upvotes worth nothing instead of having one worthy upvote. In this case I talk about people who want to exchange upvotes without understanding that not all the upvotes are the same.
Even me, I care about upvotes and that's why often I overstress myself to be active. But sometimes all I have to do is wait and the right steemian may notice me, if I got a resteem from his follower or just was lucky to post in the right time. Sometimes the topic is not interesting to those wealthy people or they are not in the upvoting mood. ☺
So you don't neet to worry about the upvotes, but you'd better worry about the quality of your post. Work on that, add catchy titles, choose good free pictures, add the source to each picture, add interesting banners in the end of your post, comment the high quality posts, reply to everyone, one of the commenters may be a whale and he may upvote because you are replying.
Waiting for upvotes keep you worry and waste the energy that you can put in an other post or comment. Try not to visit your blog too often and just write knowing that you will be rewarded anyway. Keep in touch with steemians who have been here for a long time. Be special. Be original.
