I am also new here, but I soon realized that voting on anything on the trending page is not going to help me earn any cash and my one vote or comment amongst hundreds really is not going to do anything to encourage anyone.

After finding out you really only have about 20 impactful votes every 24 hours, I started hanging out on the "new" tab more often. I try to use at least 10 of my votes on these posts. I may have to start watching the payout tab as well.
