Thank you! I checked out your posts, amazing content mate, I wish you good luck on Steemit! I am excited for your next posts.
Your posts really deserve more upvotes, I am also quite new on Steemit and this is my first post that has managed to make it to the trending page.
Over the past weeks I have learned some tricks about Steemit, here are some tips for you to get you started: You can use originalworks (just comment @originalworks below your post) and resteemit (replace https://steemit... with resteemit... in your post url, but don't enter you password unless you want to donate!) for a start, both are free to use bots. Also, use @steemitworldmap to mark your posts on the map, you might even be featured in their daily travel digests and get upvoted by them.
Also think about joining @qurator, the 2 Steem you need to pay will quickly be returned in upvotes and your content will certainly qualify as high quality! When you put a lot of time into creating a post, think about paying an upvote bot to get your post a head start (check out the steemit bot tracker!). Promoting posts is basically free since the money you pay will be returned to you in upvotes; some people promote low quality content which is bad.. Some bots like @buildawhale manually curate and select some high quality posts to get upvoted. Good luck!
Thank you so much for this amazing advice! I have started using originalworks and steemitworldmap because I saw you using them. I will definitely join @qurator once I get my payout from my intro post. I didn't know about resteemit but I will do that too, and I will look at @buildawhale now as well.
I know I have the content to be successful on Steemit, now I just need the audience!
Happy to help :)
