Welcome to the platform! I hope you enjoy your experience here. Some tips I love to give newcomers. Find your niche and community and engage. The people here are super lovely! Create a discord account. This is the best way to connect with others. Try and be consistent with posting. I don't like to emphasis the monetary aspect but of course it's always nice to receive upvotes. You will find that those who create more of a personal presences here are usually rewarded but don't have any expectations. You'll have a richer experience if you focus less on money and more on the social aspect of what Steemit can be. Be creative, be genuine and have fun with your content!

All the best! 💗
