What is the best overall basic up-to-date beginners tutorial for steemit newbies?
I have a step by step video guide that is just for new people. @probizranker
Its free and there to help newbies. check it out and let me know your thoughts or questions.
can you post the link, please?
I'll do one next week! Come to the town...
Thanks, following
Sure @sophistryproof
These might help.
Genious! Thanks @teamsteem and @stellabelle for the idea...
yes, thanks for those!
http://www.steemithelp.net is incredible and really well-organized.
Thanks
The official FAQ is a great start: https://steemit.com/faq.html
Thank you. I think I've read it but it probably wouldn't hurt to go back and reread it.
Woow, so true! it's really helpful
Go here first: https://www.steemithelp.net/
Thanks stellabelle. I need all the help i can get.
asking very specific questions is the key. When i first found steemit, it was overwhelming. So, everyday, I just learned one thing....One day it was Markup. The next week it was blockchain....one thing at a time, very slowly.
I just found few hours ago some posts about that. It will sure help because it is good info and warning there:
I have a draft email where i manage all that links... otherwise it will be a mess :-)

Placed the security advices links because i still have trouble understanding a lot of things here :-).
Again, hope it helps being centralized (just information, not the chain, hehe).
How can i get steem? I get small amounts of steem power, vests and sbd but i still have 0.0 steem in my wallet. Thanks for explaining. +upvoted J
a quick trip to your blog and I notice that you have a lot of resteems, way more than you're blogging. Writing really good comments on blogs you like is the first step to making a friend. Making friends is actually way more effective in earning than people realize.
Thank you. I'll try that. J
Writing every day on Steemit is a start.
i like your way to helping the new born steemers, yes need there is a platform on steem to help the newbies because there is a lot of things need a guidance , steem using is very easy but in start little bit tricky , like curation ,authors ,self voting, SP , lease SP , delegators, voting bots ,rewards, 7 days payouts etc etc.....
perhaps a solution will develop from these AMA's. Thanks.
Hi, I am a yunk newbie and I don't have any yunky question because I spent 3000 minutes, reading faq, searching on google and reading posts. Don't be lazy guys.
Great initiative, hope you will help some newbies!
@jwolf gets around better than anyone on steemit.
I propose he be our new minister of newbies and it should be an official position! ;-)
haha, thank you so much man!
What is yunk?
when one is ready, yunk will find you. You don't need to search for it.
it's true... it overwhelms you :-D
sounds like junk though.
Hey thanks you for this initiative! I have a couple questions:
When witnesses want to change something, for example maximum block size, how do they do it? do they just talk it over and when they find an agreement they can just change it? What can the witnesses alter, and what can't they alter without a fork?
We need witnesses, like @gtg, @jesta @pharesim @timcliff or others to answer this. I didn't think they could increase the block size without community consensus, but I don't know for sure. Let's see if they come to answer these questions. thanks.

thanks a lot, both of you!
How to get up-votes from whales?
Solve a problem that hundreds of Steemians are suffering from and your chances will go up.
Hey, when are you gonna come join us for some Steemit poker? We need your energy. What do you say?
I'm running 5 projects at the moment...so I doubt it will be soon, but thank you!
What can I do to improve within Steemit platform ? I have been here for almost 2 months with a reputation of 55 and Steem power of 200, I interact with a lot of people on here but how can I make my posts stick out more ? I want to make improvements in everything , so I can get better . @stellabelle
This is a complicated answer. Steemit is like an onion, and the deeper levels get noticed after one asks the right questions or does enough deep diving. Here are the main things I would suggest:
I think this qualifies for a separate post. You should republish this as a separate post so that more newbies can find it easily.
yeah, i think it might be time for this....to unleash the question:
If you don't know why Steem was invented, it's time to study."
Awesome response.
All legitimate advice , I appreciate it !
Not OP, but in my experience interacting with other peoples posts helps a lot. Try commenting more.
yeah, that's very important. That's how you make friends...maybe a post needs to be written on that topic.
What is important to you?
What is important to me is creating good content , creating content that people will like to read and will look forward to a post from me . This place is an addiction to me now and I want to satisfy the people that follow me
Hi Farwa,
Content is a tricky word in that it can mean practically anything, right? A picture of a flower. A guide to better writing. A recipe. A skateboarding video. All content. I'm super new to Steemit but have been creating "content" for a long time. I think the key to creating good content is authenticity and expertise.
Start here: What do you care about, like what moves you? and then what are you an expert at? If you write thoughtfully about something that moves you, others will be moved too. If you offer valuable information to a particular niche interested in learning how to do that thing you are great at, people will read what you write and they'll be grateful you took the time to share your wisdom.
Next, envision your target audience as you write. Picture them. What do they do on a Saturday? What music do they listen to? How do they dress? How old are they? What country do they live in? Really have a particular person in mind as opposed to writing to everyone. It may sound counter intuitive but you will actually reach more people this way, when your audience feels that you are writing to them as opposed to writing something generic.
It seems like you have many interesting posts on your blog. Keep at it. Think of it as a science experiment and over time you will discover what works and what does not.

I wanna know how does the voting power increase, is there a guide or scale, how many SP do I need to make my vote worth .02?
Is there some kind of rule that measures the value?
Funny that you used the same exact figure I was thinking about. Once you have that vote worth, every time you vote it is like saying "Here is my two cents". I have 540 Steem Power and my votes are worth 7 cents. Just upvoted you as you mentioned that number ;)
my best guess is that you would need about 200 Steem Power in order to give $.02. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.. Correction: 150
A little less, even. 200 SP gives you a $0.03 vote.
You can calculate this here: https://steemnow.com/upvotecalc.html
Thanks for this. I will correct my guess.
I think your guess was pretty accurate for a guess :D
My SP is 437 and my 100% vote at full power is $0.07
Ok thanks a lot for the answer, and for this initiative of helping, I;m gonna keep investigating lol, cheers and seem on.
I have 2550 SP and my 100% is worth 40 cents at 90%. If this helps.
So do I! and concerning to that, there is a calculator in Steemnow.com but seems to have a little difference... Not clear till now.
There's a rule/algorithm that measures how much your vote is worth, and it's directly related to how much SP you have. I am not sure how much SP you would need to have in order to reach $02.....but I could guess, hold on.
using steemnow @xeldal has 280k SP and his 100% upvote is woth $38 at 90% voting power. Since rewards are linear now, for $0.02 you need 280 000/1900=147 SP. FOr $0.015, which will appear as 0.02, you need about 110 SP AT 90% voting power of course
Ring, ring !!! :)
calculation on current steem price for getting 0.02$ SP you will need 150 steems than you will get (0.0225$) of worth vote value, note that calculation is on current steem price .
hmm interesting using steemnow and xeldal's SP and upvote worth I reached a value very cose to that (147SP at 90% voting power). However you seem to have calulated directly from the steem price which seems much cleaner. How did you calculate that?
I think the calculator from Steemnow. But the values are not true. Always is a difference between that calculator, Steemdb.com and Steemit itself... and you never knows.
thank you
How much yunk does steemit have ?
not enough, clearly.
