Three must-read guides to get started on Steemit!

I've started to get interested in Steemit a few months back, in October 2017. I joined in in December 2017. However, just a few weeks ago I started to really put the time to be part of this community. I'm a heavy user of Twitter and LinkedIn. Thus, I've almost stopped using them, while getting familiar with the main Steem platforms, such as Busy.org, DTube, and Steemit.

Throughout this process there were three guides that really helped me out:

• your Steemit account is worth money, and security is crucial! Would you ever live the safe with the money open? That is what you're doing if you're not securing your owner's password. That is why @pfunk's guide is critical. Read it now before starting to post:

  When you join Steemit things might get a bit tricky. In fact, you'll have four main passwords with several levels of security. Make sure you secure offline the owner key and use to log in only the posting key. If not, if someone steals your owner's key, you're pretty much done!
• @teamsteem's guide that points out all the resources you want to consult about Steemit:

• @katerinaramm's Guide to the Steemit user-level. In fact, you'll soon learn that on Steemit not all users are born equal. You will learn the difference between Minnows, Dolphins, Whales and more. This is critical to understand how to grow on Steemit as quickly as possible!

  Good luck!
