I do not understand and am really trying to
I do not understand what I should do here. It says in my wallet that there is stuff. My posts are only being seen by 2 people or so. I want to promote some of my posts to get more eyes on them because I think its pretty important. I do not understand what I should buy or convert or power up or down to get the ability to promote the posts I want to have others see. I will keep reading the ettiquette guide and help files, but I am not understanding them either tbh and I am pretty smart. Maybe it is the lingo? I just went to try to buy whatever it is I need to promote the post on mandela and vaccines and it wants bitcoin? I don't have any bitcoin.... I am frustrated. Time for a dab.
Im just as confused. Pictures of cute kittens get more attention than actual life issues. Such is life. I feel so much better, since I gave up hope.
It can be a bit fusturating at first, if there is anything you need info on you can ask me and if i dont have the answer i can direct you to the person that will have it.
one question at a time though. lol
I say just post what you like, eventually people that enjoy your content will find it and your followers will grow.
Best way to promote yourself is to just talk with people, dont tell them to look at my post here and stuff but when you talk with people a couple times they get interested in what your posting and come have a look.
Just my warrped opinion though. lol
but anything you need info on ask away.
:D
okay so to make my votes matter to others more do I 'power up'? I have 67.109 STEEM and
176.640 STEEM in the first two slots in my 'wallet'. In the drop down of the first number it says I can 'power up'. and under the other larger one it says I can 'power sown'. I am not really caring about making money, I just want my votes to count to others and have my posts be more likely to be seen in the feed. This is all in preparation for future of course, I haven't posted much lately. I am thinking of doing videos on the dtube.
Hi!
so if you are trying to make your vote worth more you want to "power up" your steem to steempower. You could also turn your SBD into steem and also power it up too.
The more steempower you have the more your vote is worth.
Hope that helps and if not let me know, its a bit confusing at first but after you do it once or twice it will be easy to understand.
:D
what is SBD?
Sbd is one of the currencys made by steemit.
:D
EDIT:
SBD = Steem backed dollars
@skeptic you have great advice here I definitely agree with interacting with people
Thats how i have made most of my followers, and most the people i follow are because we started talking and i went to their posts and seen stuff i liked.
Also i am at the point where the interaction is more valuable in my eyes then the pay out numbers, if your post is making 10 bucks but doesnt have a comment and only 3 views is no fun compared to a post making 3 bucks with 100 views and 58 comments. IMO at least.
@cobeco maybe you can start with a picture then the words and also use more popular tags. Just a suggestion .dont give up. Xoxox
