All these in 2 months? Very impressive and i think more users should read this post. All of the points you mention are very important, like being part of a community and try to be as active as possible. Many new users do not understand that and they think that by bringing the best possible content you will get positive attention.It is not like that, the activity is the one who will get you the attention:)
Yeah all this in 2 months - I spend 4-6 hours everyday on Steemit. In the beginning it was more. Exactly, users need to understand there is a lot more to the story than just publishing good content. :)
Thanks for stopping by :)
