@sharoonyasir, I wholeheartedly agree with the points you have made here. I think that one of the most important points you stated is related to the networking and social aspect that really does impact one's reach and audience. It is hard for a new person to catch that when they first come on the platform. I couldn't figure out what purpose Discord served, but now I realize it is where a lot of this friendship-building occurs. Of course, commenting and replying also can build friendships. But joining a group that uses a Discord Server can really help, too.

This is such a helpful article for newbies that I am going to post a link to it in the resources channel of my Discord Server. Many of my Server members are new to Steemit (and Discord).

I've upvoted and resteemed this article as one of my daily post promotions on the @mitneb Curation Trail. It will be featured in my daily curation report on 11 JAN 2018.

Cheers!
