Hello Steemit World!

in #introduceyourself7 years ago

So I decided to take the plunge and join in with the Steemit community. I have never been one for social media, but I really can see the value in Steemit above other platforms.

I hardly have the creativity and finesse that I see in many of the posts here and I have always kept to myself online; mainly enjoying the content others create rather than contributing directly.

Perhaps the time has come for me to share a little :) so here goes…

I am a 31 year old male living in South Africa. This is me at my best a few years ago (somewhat less hair now unfortunately):

I am married to one of the most amazing women to ever grace this planet. This is she:

I know right. Not sure what drug she was taking when she agreed to marry me, but if I figure it out I will let you all know :)

We were recently blessed with a beautiful daughter now a little over nine months old. Thankfully she has inherited her mother’s good looks ;)

I know I am biased, but really can’t get over how cute she is :) not to mention the fact that she is always smiling and happy. I honestly must be the luckiest father on the planet.

Well that’s me and my family. Thanks for taking the time to meet us. I can’t wait to start sharing more with you all. Have a wonderful week filled with Joy and happiness.

Here a few tips for starters snce you probably won't get any advice from those who comment under here, here's what I gathered thus far.
It's tough to make money at first so if that's your main cause to be on here grind that into your head straight away, that doesn't mean you shouldn't post content, you should, but enganging with others in the comment sections to grow your following is your best bet. Which categories?

Probably the introduce yourself one and the photography section but you can choose things that you have knowledge about too and then go from there just know that there is a lot of crap on here so plowing through that just to connect with others can be tough. Cheers.

This is why I come to steemit every day! You have signed up recently so welcome to the steemit platform. Here's your upvote and rock on!
As a fresh steemian it can be hard to increase your steem power so my advice would be to give @MinnowPowerUp a go as you can earn up to 30% more steem power than just powering up! It's a subscription based daily upvote bot that draws its power from a delegation pool. I made this post to explain the system in more depth and show how I earn over $1 a day in upvotes.
