It can be frustrating to use Steemit and barely get any upvote! I've received upvotes from whales by using Steemfollower. My son is also on Steemit and he's the one who has helped me with ways to get more upvotes and also with have more steam power! Good luck here on Steemit, I think you always have great posts! It would be awesome if the whales would look around and see who is making great posts!
