Cool! I noticed that you joined recently so welcome aboard. This post was nice so I upvoted it and know that the steemit community awaits!
I am struggeling, like you, to get those first upvotes on my posts so you should try out 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 made this post to explain the system in more depth and it has become my most upvoted post yet.
