**SteemThat** is an external community that is set up to help (new) Steemians grow. They've already helped a lot of people, **but now they need your help**. [![Steem_That.jpg](https://s19.postimg.org/6c7a2brkz/Steem_That.jpg)](https://steemit.com/@simplymike) ## SteemIt Has A Steep Learning Curve Let's face it, when you just start out on SteemIt, everything is a little overwhelming. SteemIt has a steep learning curve and it requires quite a lot of dedication and time if you want to get the hang of it. Many people quit before they even started, simply because SteemIt is not like other social media or blog. It can take a while before you are familiar with how things work on SteemIt, and many people get lost in the overload of information that is provided. If you're currently struggling with SteemIt, I suggest you go and check out the FAQ page. It contains loads of useful information on how to find your way around SteemIt. *(I've written a post about it a couple of days ago: ' **[The Ultimate Guide To SteemIt Covers EVERYTHING You Need To Know!](https://steemit.com/steemit/@simplymike/the-ultimate-guide-to-steemit-covers-everything-you-need-to-know)***) ## SteemThat Training Camp When I first joined SteemIt, I was really intimidated by the huge number of users. I didn't know who to reach out to for help. I was afraid to be making a wrong first impression by saying things or asking question that could be considered a stupid. Of course you can always get some help on the @minnowsupportproject 's Discord channel, but I found myself spending hours searching for answers to my questions. In the beginning, I felt like a real outsider to this strong community, and I never thought I'd ever be able to fit it, let alone become part of that community. And than I accidently bumped upon [SteemThat]( https://steemthat.com/?mref=mike314-0005), a community that resembles SteemIt and wroks together with it, but on a smaller scale. After I joined, I instantly found people who were willing to help out and answer every question I had. Because the community is a lot smaller, I wasn't as intimidated as I was on SteemIt.

I guess you can see [SteemThat]( https://steemthat.com/?mref=mike314-0005) as a little brother of SteemIt. It is website rich with features built around one simple thought, “Help Steemians Grow.” It was founded by the SteemIt member @binkley and he surrounded himself with some other Steemians, included @anthonyadavisii, @bobinson, @retiredinsamar, @webresultat, @jmcgready and @fhstralow

On SteemThat, a lot of useful information on how to use SteemIt can be found. Also, a variety of tools are provided.
On [SteemThat]( https://steemthat.com/?mref=mike314-0005), I was able to interact with people who were experiencing the same thing I was, and we could help eachother.

The most important thing was that they made me feel at home there. Because the community is a lot smaller, it's easier to build op relationships with each other, and asking 'stupid' questions is not a problem, since the SteemThat community's main goal is to prepare people to enter the big, complicated world of SteemIt.

You can say it's like training camp. On SteemThat, you're also rewarded for your actions, just like you are on SteemIt. By contributing to the community, you can earn SteemThat tokens. These SteemThat tokens can be exchanged for the platform's own token that is called **Steemish**. On top of that, you can repost your older SteemIt articles as blog posts, and promote your new posts in the 'Upvote Help' section. You can join different groups to interact with people that have the same interests as you, or you can create a new group about any topic you want.
