Don't look at the number of followers, look at the quality. If these followers did follow you voluntarily without requesting a follow back, it is great. Otherwise they just could be meaningless.
Sorry I don't want to discourage you, but it is utmost important to try build a healthy group of followers. Keep on placing genuine comments on other posts, this will increase the speed and learning curve here on Steem!

Comments are the way to go when you're new! Keep at it :)
