Hello, welcome to deviant art.
To help get your name out as well as get to know other deviants you should probably enter a chatroom or two. Of which is found as an option under the tab "more".
If someone likes your work enough to follow it's progression, you will get a "deviantWATCH".
Can also follow theirs, using the same icon at the upper left part of the screen X]
If you need help with anything or have questions, let me know X]
And ofcourse, welcome to Deviantart.
