I practically did all the wrong things in the first month in Steemit.
I treated it like a virtual diary and just did a lot of the challenges, bad poetry and complained that no one was interested in my stuff.

2nd month i changed tactics and from posting 4-5 posts a day I took it down to 1-2 and talked more on things I really cared about and was commenting more on other posts. I actually made more by commenting on other people's posts than mine with the upvotes I get. More than the upvotes is the potential that by leaving a good comment that person will become interested enough to check your own posts and might become a follower. Nay an engager would be better.

Each post has my own brand of how I write and how i arrange my thoughts. I write with the standard that I want people to think about what I said, to reflect on what they do, learn from what I did and hopefully to inspire.

I love it when I read the comments from people. Engagement has always been a strength of mine in both my post and other people's posts. That is my personal branding of myself.

I have the same thoughts on resteeming because I don't want to flood those that follow me with endless resteems. I only resteem the daily highlights of @steemitfamilyph and teh New group I joined because I care to see their presence widen.

Thank you for your sharing and thoughts Max.
