RE: MB contest - How I joined STEEMIT
Minnowbooster was pretty helpful for me too. As a plankton I only made few cents a WEEK. Now after building enough of a follower base I actually make few dollars a day.
Selling excess voting power for is also really helpful. Especially if you are going on a vacation or face some internet access problems, having vote selling to take place at 98%-99% VP is a great way for bits of passive income.
I recommend 95%, because there are times when no one is buying upvotes for a few hours or a node lag is happening. This way you are wasting less VP, because it takes a few hours for your VP to reach 100%.
Personally I haven't had problems with 98% because I have a medium sized vote which does have a relatively high demand. But Dolphins and Plankton would need to use something like 95%
