RE: Growing on Hive & LeoFinance | The Power of Comments

One thing you'll notice ... is that it starts very slow.

That's true of pretty much every social environment on or offline. Building contacts, networks and friends takes times and care ... on both sides: you want to know who you are mates with.

One of the best pieces of advice for newbies I've seen recently is about focusing on finding your way around and how everything works (looking at communities that interest you, for example) and spending your first month commenting before you start posting.

For people who want to set goals and work towards them, there's a couple of great initiatives - the CTP tribe and community (check @jongolson's posts for more detail); and the Saturday Savers Club over on the @eddie-earner account. Newbies might be interested in the @tenkminnows account run by @steevc for some extra support.
