RE: Hello Steemit! I'm Ella, 22, I live in Brighton, England. Last year, I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro!
Awesome bio story - welcome to Steemit! (Don't feel bad if people don't upvote your post until the 30 minute mark; there is a curation reward penalty for upvoting posts too soon. This confused me at first, so just wanted to let you know.)
This is not the main reason, if you look at popular authors their content gets 30+ upvotes within 10 min of posting.
The problem is the feed/home option, now people only upvote their friends and followers and nobody bother anymore to look for new author/content. This will be the demise of this platform
I hope some people still bother! I'd love my photos and stories to reach people around the world. I'm sure I'll make some friends here! Thanks snowflake, hope you enjoyed the post :)
@snowflake, I'm looking for new users like Ella. It's just whales aren't seeking out intro posts anymore because of all the catfish. @ellagrant I posted your article on steemit chat for you to get you a little extra recognition.
Ya know what... I'm gonna promote it too! I love your post, it's well done and I really want you to catch a whale ;)
WELCOME! :)
Hi Beanz! Thanks so much for the support, super cool of you. Glad you loved my post - there's more to come! :D
It takes a lot of involvement to get followers and trust from members . I am thankful even though whales don't give a damn yet . So Ella , just dive in and enjoy the ride
That's the plan! :)
Thank you geke! Glad you enjoyed my post!
