RE: Why I Just Bought $1600 Steem and Powered Up Plus Enter My Steemfest2 Giveway!
lol, I just looked at my chart and I self-vote at 53.7%... is that bad??

Let me take a look at your overall profile. I will say this though....I am most concerned about the huge SP holders who self vote, as I think it sets a bad example.....with smaller minnows upvoting their own posts, i have mixed feelings. If your account is tiny, you're not going to be able to make much and your strategy is not really that good long term. Let me look at your account, hold on.
I heard this upvoting idea before regarding minnows. The advice I got was to upvote yourself until you get a slider. Then upvote only one of your posts each day - or none - depending upon how you feel at the time yo have become so successful.
The reason given for this option was motivation. At least this way none of your posts will sit there with $0.00. I feel good about this plan and will definitely turn my automatic upvoting off on the wonderful day that I get a slider :)
yeah, i can see that motivation would help newbies, although other methods would be more effective. For example if a newbie would host a Steem party and help others get Steemit accounts, or teach them how to use Steemit, they would get way more votes from the steem community.
That's a ton of unknown work for those us trying to figure out how to format posts and etc. I'm in #nicnicy's minnowsfaucet and that might be similar to what you are thinking of. He struggles to get participation.
My choice is to create a steemer twitlist on Twitter and tweet good posts and rt my steemer friend's good posts. I'm "big" on Twitter and my new activity has really boosted that account. The posts come through beautifully. Oddly - the vast majority of the many rts I get on steem posts are from my non-steemer connections over there. But I'm happy for any action. If it is from offsite - maybe we get new blood over here.
I'm about to make some posts to educate my new steem tweeps on how to do better on Twitter to get more interest for steemit. I've got 50+ of them on my list in a short time. That is more than enough to make a difference if we work together. I coach twitter, so I'm re-purposing some of that information for here and hoping for the best result.
This is mind-blowing.
I like your work. As I can see you just joined in July, so you are very new. Your work is original and it even has a hook: moustaches! I would imagine that 2 months of blogging, you're getting frustrated. Have you joined the yunk channel in steemit chat? It's now probably a good time to explore outwards, make friends, and do some vlogs wearing giant moustaches! You need to really get into the moustache theme, as make your mark on this site as 'THE ONLY MOUSTACHE'. I HAVE IDEAS FOR YOU.
Ahh thanks for checking out my stuff! Yes I actually already have a pretty sweet mustache, there is a pic of me on my blog lol.
I have never checked out Steemit chat and yes I am very new. I decided to start a blog to help encourage my friends to get into crypto, and then I found Steemit while doing research. Seemed like a good place to post my blogs and now im HOOKED! hahah
@stellabelle I want ideas!
