RE: EX Rockstar Turned Homesteader Leaving Youtube For STEEMIT our First Post

Welcome! Glad to have you here on Steemit.
Could you put some sort of a link on your Youtube or website page so that we know it's really you? Then edit and link it into your intro here.
This is called "Verification" and people will be hesitant to vote if they are not sure that these videos are really your own.
Thanks!

Coconut,
Thank you so much for the info, I would have really missed that! I did put the STEEMIT link in our about page on Youtube... https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClBCi5TpnTXorbRke79UyLw/about

Thank you VERY much!

We also put it in this post. BTW, we homeschool too! Thanks again :)

Awesome -- I see that link on Youtube now!
It's nice to have some more homeschoolers here!
I would suggest to be cautious about putting too many posts out in one day, at least at the beginning. It will take time for your followers to build up, so right now only a few people are seeing each post. And if you put all your best stuff out there right at the beginning you will miss so many views and votes.
Also, I know that I am hesitant to give too many votes to one person on the same day as we are all limited to how many votes that we can give out without diluting our voting power. For example, if you put out 5 posts on the same day you may get 5 votes at 20% from a follower rather than 1 vote at 100%. That is not always true but is something to keep in mind.
I wish you all the best here.

WOW, I really appreciate the heads up. I hear you on the frequency of posts, do you find there is a "sweet spot" number? The thing is that I've been on YT over 2 years and I have tons of content, but I want to do what's best for the community here...

For one thing, someone here who is learning about you for the first time doesn't usually have the time to listen to 5 of your videos on the same day. Especially when they have other posts to check in their feed too and lots of things to read on Steemit. They will be overwhelmed with so much information at once.

I would say that 2 posts a day would be good for you, but it's your decision. Start slowly though, and then maybe down the road try 3 in one day to see the response.

Also, take time to interact with the community. Go and comment on other posts if you have something worthwhile to say. Find common ground with people. Don't ask them to follow you, but they may do just that if they see you involved on their own posts.
If you become involved in the community, they will reciprocate, but it takes time.
