RE: Free Way to Get Steem Power To Overcome Bandwidth Issues - Part 6
Hi @hopehuggs
I woke up and got my answer. SP is forever (unless we transferred), but delegation is 90 days active power.
But how it effects upvote value?
I mean, Both SP and Delegation combined in the effect? For example, SP is 100, and delegation power is 1000, will it effect upvote as 1100 SP?
if you are at 0 (zero ) SP right now you can either buy steem power out right and your vote will go up accordingly . Your other option is to purchase a delegation. That will make your vote act just like the level of steem power you rented. The catch is it is temporary and you need to put in some damn hard work to start making SBD and Steem Power because once your deligation is gone your steem power goes back to what ever you have now earned.
You don't want to just rent SP if you don't know what you are doing. you need to learn the art of curation (I am still learning this) and you need to have the art of writing an article down to a science otherwise you will not get any author rewards either. Having big steem power does not mean you will get in hot or trending. It helps a lot but a lot of those big SP guys are still buying bots to boost it up for visability . Using bots correctly is another dark art to learn. You can quickly loose your ass if you don't watch it.
Thanks @doomsdaychassis for the answer. So if we can write good content it is better to buy delegation instead of forever SP. And I like the way you are spreading your level by writing good answers to others' questions.
I write both fiction and non-fiction. But waiting for the right time to post better content than I am currently writing. Once I get good SP I will start posting great content than normal content.
By the way, I started following you from now onwards.
Thanks for the follow. Yes buying the deligation is a gamble. if it helps you gain attention and start earning it is a good investment. If you don't gain any traction and don't start earning it will be money lost. i just wanted to put that out there because i don't want to see anyone loose their hard earned money. I will come check out your blog.

Sure thing. Hope we will reach the level of success where @hopehuggs is.
not too hard to go beyond that too :)
Every time I heard something from you makes me motivated. But for that matter, I feel hard, many author don't upvote even for good comments or posts. It is hard to get that stage if we don't have good connections who upvote and encourage. Not everybody is like you.
I still trying to reach a success level without investing in SP. But it seems like it is too hard to get that if I don't invest in SP. Or am I doing wrong, or missed any good discord groups to get connections?
Just my 2 cents here but i would try and invest some fiat currency into buying steem. If you get real lucky you can drop $100 to $200 in bitcoin now that it is down and then sell it on the bounce and convert that to steem. steem price seems to move slower / less drasticly than bitcoin so you can easily get double your moneys worth of steem if timed out properly. it is a better inviestment than renting delagation in my opinion.
