Great information. Another wonderful tool I have found was a browser plugin for Chrome and Firefox made by @armandocat. His plugin loads with your blog and your feed pages and gives you a lot of extra links, most mentioned in your past as well as a posting graph that gives you a good visual on your activity.
You also should mention sharing your post on other social media sites .... oh like Facebook. i hear it has a few STEEMit groups. I bet you know of one or two. : )
Thanks for sharing all of this with the community.
