RE: Help me put together the ultimate guide of tips for new members! (Information Bounty) - Paying 1 STEEM per qualified response! (Details inside)

Giving on Steemit means gaining!

  1. Commenting and engaging in conversations on community and their interests posts. That's a very good way of learning what this community is about and how to contribute to it's wellbeing. Also it will match you with same interests people and that means more friends on Steemit and followers. Don't forget Steemit chat where you can directly talk to other Steemians and promote your posts.
  2. Following people who share the same interests as you. Newbies will get inspired to create quality-matched or even better content in particular topics.
  3. Reading Steemit whitepaper if you have time. Essential stuff about what this is all about is there but it's optional if you are already familiar with the blockchain and social media in general, although Steemit is without competition out there.
  4. Read, read, read even the topics you are not really interested to. Why? You will find some inspiring themes to write about when you are currently without ideas.
  5. Upvote and resteem posts you like, it will give you curration rewards and you will directly be influencing how the particular topic trends are set. Especially if you have some influental followers on your list. And it means a lot for new users and their rep. They will probably start following you and you might get a same karma.
  6. Don't blitz post. I learned from these mistakes. It will label you as a spammer and your Steemit reputation will be questionable for some time - just like IRL. Blitz posting includes copy-pasta content which is considered as plagiarism and could get you blacklisted.
  7. Seven is a lucky number, so I will finish here. Be yourself, enjoy being part of the exciting future and pleasant present. Steem on!

Good initiative @timcliff , upvoted!
