How to earn more rewards on steemit? Answer is buying an upvote.

This post is specifically for @clivingston005 and other red fishes who are curious if there are ways to grow their accounts on this platform. The most straight forward way is to write good posts and comment on other steemians' posts. Now a further step is once steemians earn a certain amount of SBD and or Steem they can spend it several ways.

Spend SBD and Steem on:

1. A store to buy goods with Steem: https://thesteemitshop.com/

2. Exchange SBD to Steem and vise versa: https://steemit.com/market

3. Spend them on upvote bots.

4. Power up Steem into Steem Power.

There are plenty of other ways to spend but the last three listed above I think are most used. I will perform item 3. to show what benefits steemians for purchasing an upvote.

For a comprehensive list of upvote bots please use this link, thanks to @yabapmatt:

One of the most used and currently profitable upvote bots that runs 24/7 is @minnowbooster. There are plenty of posts regarding @minnowbooster and the type of services they provide. Our focus is to use their upvote bot.

On the bot tracker webpage you can look at the latest upvotes minnowbooster provided and the estimated reward and associated SBD price spent to buy the upvote.

Currently it is an exceptional deal as ~$1 SBD will earn an upvote of ~$3.5! Now in your post make sure it has 50/50 rewards set, is the default setting. At the end of 7 days you, the author of post, earns 75% of the reward. In this example 75% of $3.5 is $2.625 so half of that will be recieved as SBD and the other half in steempower. Did you catch the earnings there? For $1 you spend for an upvote you earn back more in SBD and you get the same amount earned in steempower.

So lets gift @clivingston005 an upvote from minnowbooster.

In your wallet page, under SBD set transfer and put in the following in the new window:

Under the "to" you input minnowbooster and in the memo input the post your want to upvote. Note it is best to buy an upvote to a post that is 6 days old so you get the rewards within a day. Although you need to plan it out where you have a post written 6 days ago. @clivingston005 has one so I put the website link in the memo. Then execute the transaction.

You should see a transaction occur in your wallet's history after a few minutes, typical within 5 minutes. Because I bought the upvote I should see it in my wallet history.

Congrats @clivingston005 and you will receive your rewards within the next day.

There are many upvote bots out there so spend some time looking at them and figuring out which ones offer the best bang for your SBD.

Thanks for reading.
