Whuddup! I saw that you are new on steemit so welcome to the steemit platform. Have an upvote and I'm waiting for many more posts in the future!
I am struggeling, like you, to get those first upvotes on my posts so maybe you want to try Steemfollower where you can earn up to 5x more steem than just upvoting by yourself! It's a simple and safe vote exchange that is free to use. I have also made this post where I explain the site in more depth and it has become my most upvoted post yet.
