I'm really glad you're having some good luck here so far. A big key to having Steemit succeed is making sure people have a good time and keep their accounts active with post and upvots etc... I was gone for a little bit because I was moving so I wasn't posting much and I noticed many of my followers were no longer active. Now I am trying to rebuild with active followers, in time I believe all of us who got in early could be at a huge advantage when the rest of the world runs here to join. Our accounts will be well established with followers and the 5 cents of steem we earn here or there could be worth a lot more then! Good luck buddy, I'm following you now so keep up the great work!
