great advice of how to get started. Doesn't matter if you are a new hobbyist or provider. A lot of the information on getting started is the same.
First thing to do is read the self help center. I'd also suggest introducing yourself on your regional board too, and start posting there. Questions you can ask here.

so much to learn
