Achievement 6 Task by @lghazal : Understanding Curation and Community

1. Do you understand how voting and curation work in steemit?

Yes, I understand how voting and curation works. We have to be authentic and creative with our content to be able to score high votes. People will like our content when it’s new , creative and captivating. We get rewarded for the upvotes that we get on our post. The reward also depends on our steempower (SP) , the greator the SP the more reward we get.

Author Reward is the reward we get for amazing content which gets lots of upvotes.

Curation Reward is the reward we get for upvoting other’s posts.

We get the reward from the reward pool, which means that every author who has good content and some upvotes will gain 50% rewards from the rewards that they give.
For reference I’m attaching a screenshot of my rewards on one of my post.

You can also check your rewards on steemworld.org
First visit steemworld.org and then go to rewards and fill up the details. There you can see your past rewards.

Every time you do the upvote on a post, your strength in Voting Mana will decrease but it will increase again once it recharges for some times around 20% each day. The more you give the upvotes, the longer the voting mana is recharged, so it is wise to do the voting.

2. What happened if you vote a post before 5 minutes marks after posting?

Before upvoting it is wise to consider the time. Both the Author and Curation Reward will get each 50% from the post. The Curator Reward that you get will be less than 100% if you vote less before 5 minutes after posting one post.

3. Who will you vote for Steem Witness ? and Why?

It is extremely important to elect witness to create blocks, keep the network do the function, and to keep the protection of the blockchain from any attack by using few mechanism which is called DPOS (Delegated Proof of Stakes). Steem Witness is very important and I will choose @steemchiller as he is very talented and has proven to be capable of developing support Steem Applications.Let me show you guys his ranking among the witnesses on steemdb.io .

4. Which community will you join in Steemit, and why?
