Hello Steemit!

I'm Jacob and I am brand new to this community and excited to be joining it. I look forward to contributing to conversations all across the board and also creating and sharing my own content. Some subjects I'm interested in following and learning more about from you all include: cryptocurrency, photography, art, music, health, and technology–to name a few. I plan to contribute content such as some of my photography (amateur but real), ...

...musical tastes, blog-writing, news and political commentary, and various exclusively fun posts (because laughter is vital).

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and being interested in my future here on Steemit as a member of your community! Feel free to reach out, I love developing new relationships and contributing to the strengthening of the community.

-- Jacob Butler

P.S. - If you have tips for me as a newbie I would absolutely love to hear them. Please feel free to share anything you feel would be helpful or important to know!

Welcome.

As a seasoned veteran on here I'd suggest in the future you select SBD/STEEM payouts then power them up if you wish to gain Steem Power.. Sometimes the payment works out to a little less if you select the powerup option.

Cheers from Canada

Thanks for the tip! I will definitely do that and I would never have known if you hadn't told me. Appreciate it!

Thanks Britt, can't wait to dive in!

I know the feeling 😉 But its not easy its not making a quick Buck

Hello and welcome to Steemit!

Take your time and look around on Steemit. Read what you're interested in and write comments: tell the people why you like a post or don't like it, ask questions. Votes are not worth a lot in the beginning but (as you can feel right now) reading comments to your post is great :) And read other Steemian's comments, too, and if they're interesting look what they have written.

Find your niche and take your time, don't look at the rewards as a measure of your work.

Thanks for the tips! I will definitely remember them as I start with Steemit. I definitely plan to comment and truly contribute to the conversations going on within Steem. As you kind of hit on, I also want to prioritize my contributions to conversation and discussion over any type of reward seeking!

In the meantime please check out my blog, where I published an in-depth article 2 weeks ago about how the Steemit ecosystem works. You are more than welcome to follow me if it is of any help to you and if you wish to learn more about tech/blockchain. Welcome again.
