Hey man, welcome to steemit, it's a fun an exciting place. Persistence and consistency really pays off around here. I'd suggested making friends in some of the established communities around here depending on your interested. Also a great way to start out is with making friends and leaving good and valuable comments on other peoples content, It's the best way to build your followers when your starting out.
I would also suggest checking out the minnowsupportproject there are lots of amazing resources and help for new users and really formed my early days here. Good luck and see you around.
Hey, thank you for the tips! I'll be sure to check out minnowsupportproject today. I see you're also a fellow Canadian - sent you a follow. Excited to be a part of this community and I can't wait to start posting more. Thanks again and see you around bud!
