Well, I've been here a week now thought, I'd throw a few thoughts your way.
The homesteading/gardening/farming community is small here, but growing. Much different than YT. Steemit is more geared toward people that enjoy blog writing and pictures to video, not that videos are bad. Text and pictures with videos are even better.
I'm growing my followers by growing the people I follow. I tend to just follow people in the homesteading realm that interest, but everyone has their own preferences.
You shouldn't upvote or resteem more than 20 articles a day, because your voting power goes down. An upvote here is much different than one on YT. You can get curator awards for upvoting articles. THe more popular the article is and more the upvotes it gets, the more your curator award might be. You get the best return for your upvote the sooner you upvote after it is released.
Articles - author awards - and upvotes are paid out 7 days after they are released. So upvoting stuff older than 7 days is kind of a waste. I learned that the hard way. In a sense, your upvote is a bet on how popular that article will, in addition to being a sign of your support. Some people will upvote your articles as more of a bet, than because they like your article. However, you'll get people who will upvote your article because they like it even though they don't think it will be popular.
One of the first things I did was look for other channels who I knew from YouTube and look at what they are doing to get some ideas about how all this works. @mericanhomestead has been here a while. @hewetthomestead was helpful. @daddykirbs @raincountry too.
well said sir and great people to shout out as well :) I did not know about the bet portion of the upvotes interesting.
