I am in pretty much same boat as you. I can barely make two posts with my low SP and bandwidth limits, that much SP I have and got by trading back SBD. The thing is I am not even reaching 20SP so far and my vote value is 0.
But I do my best to connect with people here and so far homesteaders community seems to be helping a bit.I keep tab on steemd.com and get to connect with all the awesome homesteaders who are helping me out with the upvotes. I am also keeping the 50/50 split so as to balance things out :)

Just keep going! We all started with nothing and build from there. You can see how much good has come so far from my work here. I'll give you my 0.01 upvote to help you along. It all adds up.
