The making of posts by authors and the engagement of authors in other authors post is how the Steemit community is being sustained.
And like we already know, the growth of this community is dependent on the engagement of authors in the community.
Let's assume you were surfing through posts in the Steemit community and you find a post with a catchy title that draws your attention, you clicked on it and after reading it you like it and want to reward the author for the good work he have done. You can decide to do 1, 2 or even all of the following.
1. Upvote the post.
2. Resteem the post.
3. Follow the author.
IF YOU'RE GIVEN AN OPPORTUNITY TO CHOOSE ONE🤔🤔.
Now imagine a whale like @ned, @blocktrades etc. is surfing the through the community and finds your post interesting and dropped a comment asking you to choose between.###### Image Source Which would you go for☺️?
The goal of this post is to try and let us decide which will bring more value to the author.
UPVOTE:
I'm certain that this is what most of us would go for. Let's say the upvote is at it's full percentage%. It'll worth about $500-$1500, WOW! 😮 That's a huge impact, isn't it? OK let's assume you choose the upvote and get about $1000. That's a one time reward and that's fine.
RESTEEM:
Although the outcome for resteem isn't guaranteed as the worth is dependent on the number of active follower the resteemer have, and also the steem power of the resteemer's followers. But I still think the probability of getting over $1000 is higher. Here's my reason a whale is prone to have lots of followers, with a good amount-able steem power. And if your post is really interesting as stated previously. You'll definitely get more resteems which is equivalent to more views, that will probably give birth to upvotes that will worth more than the whales upvote.
FOLLOW:
The idea behind the follow is that all of the authors post shows up in his/her follower's feed. So if you choose follow, and keep up with the good work. You'll definitely get more than a one-time upvote.
If I was lucky to have such a great opportunity and was asked to choose. I would ask for all three of them just like am doing now😇😇.
If it were you which would you choose? Drop your comment and let me know😇.
Thanks For Reading🤝👍
Feel free to Upvote if you like it, Resteem if your followers would do same and follow @edywill.
Personally i want all.. and if i can can get a whale to follow me that will be awesome
Good decision @jojothomas. As a whale following you is literally money following you about☺️.
Hey! I think "commenting" and interacting is super important... and the rest comes for itself
I think all is important
yes you absolutely right @profsam, I mean who wouldn't want all🤷. But if you were in the post hypothetical situation which would you choose😇?
If I were in the post hypothetical situationI I would definetely choose resteem. Because that will probably give birth to upvotes that will worth more than the whales upvote. As you must always think about business.
I would prefer to follow . Nice post though
Wow you surprise me @victordaniels by choosing the follow😯. I least expected anyone to choose the follow as it adds no immediate value to the post. But come to think of it with the follow every other thing would be added unto you🙂.
Because if the whale finds another of your post interesting and decides to comment again, you can now choose either an upvote or a resteem, or even an unfollow😜.

excellent education what are you giving on steemit
Hahahaha 😁😀😂. Nothing really big for the meantime @merryslamb 💁, just my little ideas. But working on some strategies though which would be made public soon for newbies like myself to benefit from🤔🤔.
I think the RESTEEM would be the most beneficial, especially if it's a top user here. The immediate money associated with an upvote is tempting too though!
Exactly👍. But it's obvious that a lot of people would still choose the upvote😇. A bird at hand they say is worth more than a 100 birds in the bush🙂. Many would choose the upvote as it's certain, as they're not ready to risk it for a resteem or follow☺️.
I would choose them all, but if I had one pick it would be to upvote!
Well either of the three options are great, but all three is the greatest😇.
Thanks for explaining. I am new here and had exactly this question. I could upvote however it doesn't give you one cent.
Oh is it that? I tell you it's common among minnows like us. Especially when our voting power is very low. I really feel bad when after going through a post of my interest I can't reward the user for the great work.
I try to understand this and you surely sucked me in with the title. I was hoping for some beam of light to come down and enlighten me to this mystery ... lol but it did not.
I usually do all three but there are times that I think their effort is worth recognition but not a resteem or follow. So for me it really has to do with the effort and content. I really like how you forced us to reply and interact with your post though. Good job.
Thanks @acrowland. I'm very grateful for your engagement in this discussion😇.
no problem that's the point of it all isn't it
Yeah u're right😀😀👍.
