i want to share my experience on steemit (for newbies like me :D) 
first of all when you starting steemit dont try to follow 1500000 people for get followers thats rly bad idea. 
reason 1 : there is no interesting things that you will like.
reason 2 : many of them are old accounts  (inactive)
reason 3 : most of them are fake accounts

reason 4 : follow 150000 account means that you arent reading posts which is rly helpful for you 
next :D  upvote for upvote. thats rly terrible idea. when you read some posts you must upvote it when you rly like (or it was helpful for you) and not for to get upvote on your post. when you upvoting someones post for get same upvote means that you will get nothing from it. 
when you are creating post you must be careful and creative. maybe no one read it (thats rly bad) but you must be fearless and countinue doing posts that you created for the future thats will be good for your reputation and you will get good awards from your hard work. steemit dont means easy money. money isn't at all, everything needs hard work for get good result. so dont be fake account do it yourself and be brave. its essential to read whole  post that you upvoted. thanks for read my post. if you like this and want to share others resteem it <3 
sry for my broken english
