How to succeed on Steemit - newbie

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

Hello people, I've always been concerned about the new guys on Steemit.com, most of them don't know their way around and even to upload a profile picture is not easy for them. This post should help fix that.

If you're a newbie and you're reading this, big welcome to steemit.com

Welcome.jpg
The first thing I think you need to do on Steemit.com is make an "introduceyourself" post with a tag "introduceyourself"

.

To make your first post, just click the pencil (mobile view) or click Submit a Story ( desktop version) at the top right corner of the page and then give any title, example "my name is Joseph Samuel and this is my first post"

After that, move to the next section and tell us about yourself, what's interesting about you etc.

At this stage I'm sure you'll like to upload your picture(s),

To do that, all you need do is click "selecting them" as seen in the picture above and choose the image you'll like to upload.

Next step (tagging) :

Tagging provides useful way to group related posts together and to quickly tell readers what your post is about.

This is one of the most important part, as far as I'm concerned.

So to tag your post, all you need to do is just to type a word or group of words that describes or tells us what you're talking about, for this example, we'll use "introduceyourself" (beginning with small letters) , just type "introduceyourself" without the quotation marks in the last horizontal box as seen in the picture below
