I have tried to participate in the contests regularly promoted by the SteemFoods Community in collaboration with its founder @alikoc07, which seeks the active participation of the community to make known their tastes and hobbies related to gastronomy. However, this time his initiative seeks to strengthen the voting power of the main account of the community, in order to support more strongly the creators of original and quality content. In particular, I think this initiative is a great idea, with a good purpose.

For a while I had moved away from steemit, precisely because I felt that my content was not valued, or perhaps because there was no niche where my publications had a place and an audience that could appreciate them. But on my return to this social network, I have found a community that really stimulates and motivates food lovers to create quality content, in what I consider a real win - win, because you can not only monetize your talent, but also enrich your knowledge thanks to the content shared by other members of the community. I am undoubtedly referring to the SteemFoods community.

As a creator of content, mainly about cooking and gastronomy in general, it is very gratifying for me to be able to contribute to strengthen the voting power and influence of the @steemitfoods account, as I am sure that this will benefit many active and engaged members of the community, while motivating others to join as well.

I take this opportunity to praise the work of @alikoc07 as a community leader, it is very gratifying to know that our work is well received and appreciated, and that he is a very human and accessible person, willing to listen and address our concerns.

I will support this initiative by delegating 500 SP, out of the 566 I have accumulated to date. I am sure it is a great decision, and that it is worth giving a chance to grow an account from which we can receive support and backing in the future. Again, I believe it will be a win-win.

If you still don't know how to delegate, I will guide you step by step with the following images of my delegation:

My purpose within the community is to continue sharing my recipes and preparations. I love to know that many other people can be encouraged to cook and somehow feel inspired to try it, just as it happens to me when I enjoy the delicious recipes that others share, while we learn new techniques and traditions from other regions. It is a very enriching experience.

Do not be afraid to participate in this delegation initiative. By delegating you do not lose your tokens, they will always remain yours, and the transaction can be reversed whenever you deem it necessary.

If you wish to know the terms and conditions to participate, you can read the rules in this publication.
