Its been a while but what a great way to start March as today we celebrate this ship reaching another follower's milestone 01/03/2018 to those who have just followed and stuck with me on here I want to thank you for this large number of over 1750 followers! Just wow!
Oh my gosh what a challenge! Its been just over a month now since I gave myself the challenge to gain another 250 new followers as that is what is required for the next followers badge.
Unlike the previous challenge it took me just under a month this time round we have gone a little over but we do need to take into consideration that there was a few less days to work with having only 28 days in Feb and unfortunately having spent less time on the (new) posts page.
Going up in 50s was getting dare I saw it...? a little too easy so was in one way relieved that the next challenges were a target of 250 new followers each.
So the first time I tried this challenge it took me a little over a month but definitely a worthy goal for a minnow like me.
The following challenge was to reach 1500 followers which we achieved the goal was to try and get them faster then the previous month's by mostly just putting out good content and wow we managed it, we got 250 new followers nearly 2 weeks faster then the previous 250 challenge wow!
But as you know this time around getting those 250 followers was about a week and a half slower but no problem I already gave you my reasons, but can you believe that we are now on the road to reaching (2000) followers! Amazing it didn't really even fully hit me till now we are so close to hitting another big landmark.
Still early-ish into the year and what a great way to kick start my journey towards a Dolphin badge there are still many steps to take but we are getting closer my friends, remember this also means higher rewards for many of you. So lets get moving.
It's really awesome to see such a large number this means Steemit.com is growing at a fast rate definitely looking forward now to the next challenge which is trying to reach obviously 2,000 followers.
So far I have been mostly celebrating followers in 50's which has been on average been taking me around 8 days which is just over a week to acquire.
But lately we are setting ourselves for a far more worthy challenge its a completely different ball game trying for 250 more followers, for each prize badge.
Right then now 250 more to go till (2000) yes we have done this before but can we do it again even faster?
But Hey Listen!

I am glad that you have decided to join me on this crazy adventure we call life... or is it Steemit? Anyway there are obviously benefits to joining as the more power you can help me gain the more I can give back to those of you who are loyal and active meaning we can all grow together.
You see I haven't powered down once yet since I started here on Steemit.com over a year ago now, and I like to give back to those who are helping me do this as I actually find Steemit.com to be about giving.
And I think that giving back also feels great.
So please dont forget to upvote or comment regularly if you cant comment please dont worry at all, but atleast dont forget to upvote I notice those who do that alot as it's what will help us all grow together and as I like to give back to those who are supportive so you helping me helps you,
but please be warned...

...Dont beg for upvotes or follows you will get flagged this is not only my rule but I speak for most steemians I think when I say this applies to all users.
In all honesty I am in no rush to gain more followers as most of them are asleep or atleast are when it comes to voting on my content but glad at one point you enjoyed my blog enough to have joined me.
But please.. not that I am complaining as I rather have folks who want to join and support me rather then those just looking for cheap follows, yes it was worth mentioning my observations.

Another thing for all my followers who are asleep you are literally leaving money on the table, when I was starting out every $0.01 steem was important to me, if you are new and active on my posts you could sometimes earn $0.04 steem I would of been over the moon back then to receive such a amount back in the old days, I keep growing in hopes of giving more out but I need your support with upvotes in order to do this and grow that number even higher for all of us.
All that I ask of those who are not voting on me is that you are atleast still actively continuing to vote on other posts, this is so we can all have the opportunity to grow.
But lastly I dont want you to leave here without knowing that I really do appreciate you following me and for those true followers who are awake right now and reading this I thank you..oh and if you really are there then
dont forget to...

Thanks man @mysearchisover
Congrats @simonjay. That's quite a milestone. I'm not sure what the badges actually are so I'll have to go and have a look.
I've not been concentrating on followers recently, mostly because I notice a lot are people who have not interaction with me at all or just follow hoping for a follow back.
I did get my monthly author challenge badge this month though so that was an achievement.
No doubt you'll be posting very soon about reaching 2000. Let's see how quickly you can do it! 😁
I wouldn't concentrate on followers @gillianpearce I know everybody else says otherwise but most of the people arent active or very supportive, if hunting for followers find those who have been most active and been here a good while. Apart from that you will mostly get leechers and people just wanting follow backs. That's great sign of your activity on Steemit well done, thanks for the supprt @gillianpearce (2000) is the big one now.
I'm not focused on getting followers in terms of numbers at all @simonjay. As you say, most of them are just chancers.
I won a delegation last week for my commenting efforts which was very gratifying as that is where my main focus is, that and getting to 500 SP.
I have yet to buy Steem although I am considering it. I actually quite like to play the game of seeing what I can do without buying. But then I see others leap ahead by doing so and I get a bit discouraged.
Time will tell! 😁
Its the best mindset @gillianpearce I just celebrate the goals reached even if I was not working on that particular achievement, yes like yourself my focus is on SP getting to Dolphin is my goal but with the price being so much higher these days getting to 500sp or 5000 is so much harder. That's why this lower price isn't bad as people make it out to be, haha yes that game I know what you mean most of us play at trying to gain without buying.
I'm wondering if it will get below $3. That might be my cue to buy. I doubt it though as when it gets there I will be thinking - maybe it will go lower. That is why I am not good as this currency game. I would need to come up with a strategy and then stick to it! 😊
Yea @gillianpearce if you saw my report last night then you will know its under $3 and I know exactly what you mean there is always the question of what if? What if it goes lower? That's what I would do, see what you can afford, how much you want, and if it reaches that low go for it and buy some.
Thanks @simonjay. I don't think the equation of what I can afford and how much I want will ever work. Not unless it goes back to cents again!! 😁
I keep meaning to set up the accounts I need to buy and then get distracted.
Hopefully it will keep going down while I'm getting around to that. Working out what I am willing to invest is also a good move. I have about $500 in mind which won't buy me anywhere near the Steem Power I would like but, would at least be a start! 😊
congratulations on your achievement
Thanks for the supprt @amriabdullah
