EXPECTATIONS
Not to bore you with long talks, my expectations are to interact and learn from intellectuals while I also contribute immensely to the Steemit Community. This I will do by posting on Drug information, diseases and also value adding contents.

I got to know about Steemit through Nairaland Forum, a platform that brings people together to share experiences and Information. However, my interest was ignited when @Steemjet visited university of Ibadan.

Thanks to the steemit community as you comment, upvote and make me welcome..
Thanks once again..

    Your Introduction post is really nice. I have some tips for you in order to further improve on Steemit and get started. Please read the following two guides that every newbie should read in order to know about different terminology used on Steemit platform or how the platform works:

    Hello cormen! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

    1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
    2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
    3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
    4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
    5. Have Fun and Enjoy!

    Good luck on your Steem journey! Follow us if you like to receive more helpful tips and maximize your Steemit experience.
