Thank you for posting this article. I thoroughly enjoy reading and following the advice of established content creators. I do find that some of the advice given can definitely help my posts gain more exposure and help to "Reward me later." I try to stay loyal to creative endeavors here on Steemit, but that is still a hugely varied amount of content. Poetry, photography, and digital art all attract different audiences and I post in all three mediums depending on my mood. Can you suggest a way for me to keep a base following for all of my various contents? I have been on Steemit for about 10 months and I have gained very little loyalty. I have even tried posting at different times of the day so that people in different time zones have the opportunity to view my work before it is lost in the flow of content. I appreciate all of the advice you have given in this article and will use it liberally to try to gain more exposure for my own work. Thank You.
One more quick question: Do you believe delegating your voting power helps or hurts your efforts in the community? I have read articles both for and against and am unsure. Any advice on that matter will be greatly appreciated. Thank you again for a great article.

Hey @japhofin8or, the time is 18:56 at the moment, thank you for asking. We hope to be able to help as many as new content creators on Steemit as we can. The birth of Steemit is still young, and has a lot of potential to grow as a community.
Regarding your question: With the variety and amount of content posted on a daily base, many followers can loose track who they follow and who posts what. Loyalty can only grow and exist once there is enough transparency to trust someone, especially when money is involved. The current engagement seems to us, as a "benefit of the doubt, here is my 2 cents", or "here is a chance for curation rewards" kind of engagement. This can be really problematic and challenging. The only real advice we can give you is to stay in touch with a part of your audience on a daily base. Friendship for the long term can be more valuable than a loyal follower in our opinion.
Delegating to a Steemian can be a great help for them. It can boost them morally, but they can also spread their voice in multiple ways. More up-votes, more potential to connect and engage with other Steemians and so on.
Hope this helped.
"What is the time."
