You have wise advice, and I expect you will go far on Steemit!

This is all a slow building process-- and pretty much all social media is. Elsewhere, people have asked me how I got 16K likes on my Facebook page... and my first answer is always "eight years."

I guess part of it is just that we live in an instant gratification world... and part of it is people getting all anxious and fired up because there's... ta-da... rewards involved.

This is good and real... giving you a re-steem for added visibility.
