RE: Contest with up-votes as prize.

It truly depends on your tribe- the group of followers you interact with each day on Steemit, that determines what works. Long, compelling articles do very well, as do short and concise tidbits that are easy to digest but packed full of nutrients ;) It truly depends on your personal community :) You have to know your people.

Its day one for me, or 2 hours to be precise, I'm searching for my tribe but it all feels slightly overwhelming at the moment. I'm sure the feeling will pass so I hope I find my tribe soon.

Welcome to the community!

I completely understand- it is a bit overwhelming when you first come on board here :) But the community is super supportive and encouraging. Stick with it! Patience and consistency are needed, but if you post quality and compelling content, and never plagiarize, you will go far :)

Nothing great was built in a day ;) If you build a strong foundation your tribe will come :)

Try going to the homepage. On the left you will see a bunch of popular tags. Click on one topic that interests you. From the list of posts find one that you really like (go ahead - click a bunch!) then look at the people who have replied to that post. The people who reply to the posts that you like are the people who have similar interests to yours and there is a better chance that you will find content that you like if you follow the commenter home to his blog. Look particularly for commenters who have something interesting to say about the topic of the post. When a commenter knows something about what they are talking about there is an even better chance of finding gold!

Thanks for your reply, even though its taken me 2 days to spot it. I have started exploring the tags and now follow a few people too...getting there slowly but surely, tortoise not hare.
