Have you retrieved all your keys on steemit?

Yes, that was done after I finished signing in to the steemit account. I got the keys when I logged in to my wallet through the steemit.com wallet using the master key.

Do you know each of these keys functions and restrictions?

Yes of course you know it is very important to keep my steem account secured. so, therefore, my master code or password should be kept safe and where it can be easily retrieved. This advice to using necessary keys when logging in most especially key that is necessary to do what you want to.
For instance,

Posting key:

This type of key allows account users to post some good articles and write comments, edit, esteem, vote (downvoting/upvoting) and even follow other accounts. The posting key is used for login in accounts every day. therefore, it is frequently used by active members.

Active key:

this is another type of key that is used for transferring funds and transactions. It is also used to power down or power-up. It is used for voting for witnesses and also for converting steem dollars, updating details and Avatar, and placing a market order too.

Master key:

This type of key is not often used or is not frequently used. it is used when necessary as it is the most important and most powerful password due to its ability to change other keys of an account.it is used to change the owner key.

Memo key:

This key is mostly used while decrypting and encrypting labels when transferring funds for instance when encrypting a memo using the pounds sign($) before it.

How do you plan to keep your master password?

Well, it is important that every steem user should keep his or her master password safe. I plan to save it offline by recording it in CD and DVD ROMs and also another documentary files and keep it in my filing cabinets. I will also save it in my email where it will not be disclosed to an intruder.

Do you know how to transfer you're still talking to another steam user account?

Yes of course while transferring a steem token to another steem user account, the first login with your active key to your wallet through the steemit.com wallet use the following steps:
Click on Wallet dashboard.
Click on the icon that looks like a triangle∆ on the SBD.

Click on the memo and write something.
Click on confirm.

Do you know how to power up your steem?

Steem power has a great influence in all activities on steemit, as we use it to vote, post and comment, etc. seemingly the higher your steem power, the higher your position. therefore, your power to vote increases as your steem power increases. it is gotten from two different ways in the form of 50% for post rewards and 50% for powering up your steam.

powering up is the process of converting your steem to steem power

........and it takes some number of days to be successful and powering down will also take a month to be a success.
