[Guide] How to #introduceyourself

How to create a #introduceyourself post?

The first thing you should know is: DO NOT USE this TAG if your post is not to "Introduce" your self or a new project.

A good #introduceyourself post, should have:

A Title

• No tips here :) Just not use clickbait titles, we don't like it here in Steemit. (Oh... :) it is a tip).

A Photo

• Should be you (not a cat, a mountain or a sunset);
• Try to use a fresh Selfie (Do not use that photo of you from 15years ago, when you had 12 kilos less, remember we are here because what you are writing, not for your body);
• Feel free to post more than one photo, your place, your family, city but the first photo should be you (because the first photo added in your post will be used to create a thumbnail in the list).

Location

• Where are you from? (Where is your home town);
• Where are you live? (Where you live right now).

Bio

• How old are you? (Your age or your year);
• What do you do? (Your job, your main activity);
• What do you like? (Your tastes, hobbies, interests);
• Have you a pet? (Have you a cat? A dog? A parrot? A snail? A fish? Bring they to Steemit);
• How do you know Steemit.

Tags

• First tag must be #introduceyourself (your first tag will set what is the main category of your post);
• Add 4+ Tags that make some logical sense with your profile, like your country, your language, #music if you are a musician, #art if you are an artist, #writer if you are one, #photograph if you are a photo lover, etc;

A sample : #introduceyourself #portugal #cryptocurrency #steemit #makemoney

Of course you don't need to follow 100% of this guide, it is just a guide if some times you get shy when writing about you.

DON'T DO

Common mistakes

• Not use a photo;
• Use photos with nude content;
• Do not talk about you;
• Leave Welcome Comments without a reply;

Very important do not share too much information, never in a deep level, like complete birthday, full mail address, security keys, etc and remember staff guys will NEVER asks you for money transfers or passwords.

Let me show a friendly sample:

Hello my name is Bruno Azevedo, 35y old, I am from Brazil but now I am living in Portugal.

I am married and father of a little boy with 4y old.

I came to Steemit after read a post about how to earn money writing in a social network.

I am looking for new friends, new technologies, like cryptocurrency, blockchain, trading, make money and others and I also like multiplayer games, like Conter Strike, LOL, Lineage.

I own a cat (indeed I think that her is my owner) and 2 snails, the cat name is Lyla and the snails are "Alantejano" and "Baiano" (brazilians and Portuguese guys will understand the name).
I will show then in my future posts... For now that is it...

Nice to steemeet you all.
