My biggest tip is to remember that Steemit is a social network, with emphasis on both of those words (social and network).

So, you first need to be social. Pretend like you're a stranger showing up a a party that's already a under way. What would you do first? You'd mingle. You'd socialize. You'd comment on other people's clothing. You'd try to work your way into existing conversations.

And then, once you'd made friends and developed some confidence, you'd find your voice. You'd speak and expect your friends to listen and comment on your thoughts (because you spend time doing that with them first).

What you wouldn't do is show up at the party and expect to everyone to drop their conversations and focus on you. (I'm not saying you've done this).

So, again, just engage, be social, and keep posting. You'll get noticed, I promise.
