As a newbie getting into a community is not as easy as a matter of fact it can be very discouraging when starting.
I am a newbie in this community and i still think newbies are still not getting enough attention.

Is there any other way to focus on retaining newbies?

Recruiting has never been the problem but retaining is a major issue.

What is the future of those who don't want to blog on the hive network?
