I dont know about steem but here is a link for some free coins just register and you get some coins https://coinstarter.com?ref=xn7qo7ox3

we all make steem every post and comment and more as you grow your influence here - gaining followers helps so - i will follow you now

Commenting is perhaps the best way to earn at this point, posts do not hang long in the feed of most members as they follow lots of users.
I only recently decided to comment more as it is harder to find good posts now to resteem, and it's a lot easier than spending a long time on a post that hangs for 2 minutes in a feed then 'vanishes' (it doesn't really but sure seem like it sometimes)

Certain tags are more popular than others but make sure to use relevant tags if you post (yours are OK)

Enjoy Steemit, just don't EXPECT rewards, think of them as a bonus.

Steem on beyond the moon, lets watch it fly way further. Good luck to us all.
