You write very well.
My impression is that many new newbies do not read blogs like yours, but just plow right in and then end up being disappointed by the fact that nobody finds them and nobody follows them back. I know. When I started on the steam it in August it was just like that. I had to write a good Thousand comments and blog before people started to notice me..
The one thing which really comes out of this is that if you are going to write a comment on someone’s post, make sure that it is meaningful and much more than a couple of words. I have noticed that large numbers of comments are very short and I suspect the motive of quite a lot of these is simply “hey I’m here, please look at my profile and follow me”. In other words just trying to draw attention.
In this case, I have decided to follow you because of the high quality of this blog.
Hopefully all your blogs are of the same quality and I will find that out as I come across them in my stream.
Reading through your comments, just stroke me about a decision i have being trying to make for sometime now,
i am new here and am not actually a good reader, i literally do not write... Lol
I meet a mentor last december who is really great at speaker and writing and i was greatly inspired that i always visited his page atleast 3 times daily.
Normally i am a cool and reserved person, i do more of commenting than posting, however joining this platform and meeting folks like you, @swissclive @okusarobert, i think its my calling to join writing
I have a quick question for @swissclive and @okusarobert
Do you think persons who dont express themself or post on social media i.e facebook, instagram, twitter etc, have low intellectual?
You say it all to well. Thank you, a thousand times, for your acknowledgements and your follower-ship, and re-steem. I am committed to quality work. And will make sure to remain faithful.
Many times, my kind, that is, beginners/minnows, who start off with quality work, slowly degenerate and trade off quality for quantity, for the sake of trying to gain attention. I am conscious, fortunately, of this risk, and will make sure to overcome it.
Thanks for honoring me.
Great reply, @swissclive! I'm following you now because you are obviously one of those thoughtful people who really adds value to the platform. This reply is proof of that!
Cheers!
