If you're a newbie, you might find it hard to navigate Steemit, for your post to gain prominence, or to network with users.

Steemit.chat is a perfect place to form bonds with Steemers, with whom you can form groups, to either promote each other's work, or perhaps to work together.

For example, you may be a great photographer, and I may be a great writer, steemit.chat is a place ripe for such arrangements to be made.

It is also a great place to make yourself known to influential users of the platform, to who you can present your content, which may result in you being added to an upvote botlist.
I would also commend the users active in the #steemitabuse channel in steemit.chat for rapidly rectifying vote abuse.
In general, it helps you to feel as though you're truly part of a community.
