I have been blogging, producing content and making money online since 2010. It’s an every changing road, with new opportunities presented daily. One of these opportunities I missed the boat on. I had the chance of being an early adapter on a platform and I didn’t grasp the opportunity at the time. Whereas other early adapters that I know did very well. Bummer Right!

Steemit offers another chance at a fantastic opportunity. Steemit is now 1 year old and anyone that takes this opportunity is still an early adaptor. I am not going to make the same mistake twice.

But at 1 year old, there is still stiff competition to get noticed and don’t be fooled into thinking it is any sort of get rich scheme. Trust me, to be successful on Steemit you will need to make the effort.

With thousands of posts made daily how are you going to get noticed in the Steemit Sea?

Minnow Support

Not only will you need to make effort with your posts, but you also need to be part of a community. I have posted before about communities and I cannot over emphasise the importance.

One such community is Minnow Support and PAL on Discord. For which I am submitting this article as application for role of ‘Greeter’

Minnow Support is such an awesome community, full of chat, fun, games, contests and most of all support for Minnows. It’s full of people just like you and me, all wanting to succeed on Steemit. It’s a place to build and foster relationships, and share your posts.

It costs you nothing to join Minnow support and glean from the community, but there is also a voting bot…..which is almost free to join too (only .001 SBD).

This bot is funded by the community. Community members can delegate (or donate) Steem Power to the bot, making it stronger for everyone. It’s a win win.

So who is behind this community? At the top we have @aggroed, then we have @ausbitbank, @canadian.coconut, @someguy123, @theprophet0 as witnesses. These people are awesome and offer plenty of support in the community.

And I can't forget to mention the mods....a big shout out to all of you, thanks for putting your time into this!

So what’s stopping you? Join the Minnow Support Community on Discord now https://discord.gg/HYj4yvw

My Initiative

I have delegated Steem to the Minnow Support Project, and I am putting my time forward to become a Greeter in the community. But I also want to help a little more.

So today I set up a Pinterest board for which I am going to use to promote Steemit and my fellow Minnow Peers. I will be picking posts daily from Minnow Support on Discord, so if you have your post in the up vote tag then you might just have the post promoted on Pinterest.

Posting to Pinterest is a manual task, and this initiative came with its own difficulties. For some reason, Pinterest won’t pick up images from Steemit. But after a little research I found a Chrome plug in that will do the work for me. (that deserves a post of its own!)

Today here are the posts that I pinned
