Hola Amigos
How are you all doing?
I know for steemians that depends on steem price, as the steem price is now in a good and stable position i guess you all are doing good now a days.
Today i am again here to discuss a very important thing.
I am on many steemit facebook group. There i see lot's post which is very common. And that is- Upvote for upvote
This intention is mostly seen between newbies of steemit. They really don't know how steemit community works.
They just only think they can earn when they will get vote.
Yeah, to earn you need to get vote. But there is many things behind vote. It doesn't work like as they think.
Steem power
I hope you guys know about steem power. Steem power is- Influence steem tokens which give you more control over post payouts and allow you to earn on curation rewards
These word seems hard to you??
ok, lemmi clear you in one sentence. The more steem power you own, the more will be you voting value.
You can check your steem power in your wallet. here is mine-
I have total 140 steem power(100 steem power delegated). Which brings 0.03$ vote on my 100% voting weight when i have 100% voting power
Now newbies will ask why there is -100 on my steem.
Because i have delagated 100 steem power to another user(returnable) thats why showing -100
Newbies will see +15 steem power on there wallet. Thats 15 steem is given by the steemit system to give you a pushup because steem power below 5 will make you account unstable. They will take it back by little amount when will you earn some steem power.
Voting power
There is a staff named voting power behind votes. It is the main thing behind a vote. When you do a vote your voting power gets low by nearly 2%(for 100% weight only). Your voting value will be also decreased with the down of voting power. Here you can see mine-
Here you can see my voting power is 98%+. and my 100% vote value is 0.01$ worthy.
when i will be voting any post, this percentage will get down and my voting value will be also down after doing some vote( So those who works on group and runs a voting cycle between you guys, don't get equal amount of vote. Because when "A" votes "B", with 100% voting power "B" gets the highest amount and rest votes of "A" will be lower than the first one, same goes for upvote and upvote method ).
The voting power is recoverd by 20% in 24 hour by the system. so if you use more than 20% voting power in a day, one day you will find your voting power zero.
Some guys will ask me, what will happen if my voting power get down to zero? Nothing will happen to your account but your vote value will be zero, And you should know that you can also earn by voting ownself. By getting down your vote value to zero you lose that oppourtunity
Upvote for upvote can be dangerous for you sometime.
Suppose you are doing lame/no use to the community type post for just those upvotes, than this can be dangerous for you sometime. If your content is low and you are just asking people for votes, You can get sometime flagged by others.
And don't ask for upvote on others post comment, the author can flag your post. So, be aware of these thing.
My Suggestion to newbies
Your account is running on leased 15 sp. Which doesn't even bring 0.01$ on a post instead of voting with 100% voting power and weight. It will be more horrible amount when you will keep voting all day long and turn your voting power to 60-70%.
So, my suggestion is
Use your voting power wisely, Don't vote more than 11-12 in a day.
Stop working in a group as all are not getting same amount.
Stop posting upvote for upvote kind of post
Make good content and useful for community so that reader by find your post interesting and useful. If they find it useful they will vote it ownself. You may sometime get higher amount of votes if you contents are useful for other.
Don't ask for upvotes on others post by commenting
Don't copy/paste any post. You will be flagged by some abuse hunter, Be aware.
If you are posting a picture which is from a website, give the source link.
After earning some amount of sbd, use those sbd to boost your post, so that your post reach to more people( Before that be confident about your post quality)
This post is especially for some of my native friends, some facebook friends and for the the newbies.
I am not a master of steemit, but i learned many thing after being 5 month with steemit. And i am just sharing those things to for you guys.
Hope i was able to make you guys understand about some basic things of steemit.
I am still learning
If you guys have any ask, you can do it on comment. I will try to reply.
Newbies keep eye on my blog for interesting and useful post. I will share more staffs about steemit. Now,I will be going. See you guys later.
Till then stay safe, be happy and keep doing good things.
