"What Should I Do To Get More Followers?"
This is a common question I get. I often answer these questions with the pretty "standard" phrase like so many others.
Effort. Time. Consistency.
I still claim this to be accurate but I want to show you that these answers are accurate and truthful, and that's the reason for this article. I wrote an article three days ago. [HITMEASAP NEWS!] ✔Weekly Report Is Back! | ✔Growth & Process+Asapers. I shared my growth both visually and in text and this article is just another proof that will show you that these few words works flawlessly.
3 Days Ago:
Today:
If you read my previous article you'll see this:
The thing that is really important here, to me, is that my results are still positive and continue to be positive. To gain ~6 new followers per day is amazing and I would've been satisfied with far less than that. And why do I think this is so important?
Because that is solid and concrete evidence and proof that you can afford to be less active from time to time, without ruining your chances of growth. Even though I have been less active and published less articles, I still grow my account in terms of followers.
I still get followers based on the time I have spent. It's not only about the time I need to spend to build a following. I also get followers from my old content, which is a huge bonus for my overall growth.
So, even though I had been less active, I still gained ~6 new followers per day. All due to the time I have spent and all the things I have done during my time on Steemit.
Judging by the screenshots above you can see that I've gained 38 new followers in 3 days, which gives me a daily average of 12.66.
(38/2 = 12.66)
That means that I've been able to gain more than 6 new followers extra per day since that report.
(6+6=12)
However, I have also published 2 articles since the latest report, and by doing that, I have been able to gain more followers as I've got more exposure and visibility from those publications. The best part of it is that everything happens naturally and automatically.
With that being said, I know that I will grow my following by being active and publish articles. But it will obviously work with comments too. Which many people doesn't seem to acknowledge as a good approach to generate followers.
You can also see that I've written 19 comments(including the 2 articles) since my latest numbers, so even though I might have replied to comments on my own articles or if I comment on other authors articles, I still get more exposure and visibility... Hence, more followers.
Active = Growth!
Imagine this:
You find a new amazing, talented author who seems really cool. You love the article you've just read and you decide to comment.
Eager to hear back from the author, as you would love to get more details about this certain topic or you're interested to hear his opinions and ideas on the questions you have...
- And the author ignores you.
What do you think will happen?
- What would you do?
Most people would give it another shot, perhaps once or twice, but if this author still ignored them, they would unfollow and look for someone else to interact with. - That's one of the most important things in terms of growth. Be active and respond to the questions and comments you get.
By doing that, you'll ensure that the followers you have will continue to follow you and you'll get new followers... Hence, a larger audience.
Time Is Key.
You can't just say that you've spent 10 hours on Steemit for the past 11 weeks without results... What you do with the time you spend is crucial for any type of positive result.
If you're active and spend time doing things properly, you will get positive results. I'm up to 12+ new followers per day for these last 3 days... So it's crystal clear that I generate more by being active.

Please understand that I might not be able to respond immediately, even though my name includes "asap". I do have a life outside of Steemit and the @asapers, and I often get multiple messages each day so it might take some time for me to respond. Feel free to message me again if you haven't heard anything in a few hours or a day.
