Gain Some Followers

---

Followers are those who see your blog on their feed. Sure, more followers will help you grow fast. However, it is not only followers who can see your post. Actually, anyone can see your post. If you have posted recently then anyone can browse the "new" tab and see your post. But how long?? there are so many users posting their content every single minute or second. Your post will be harder to find on the "new" tab after some times. But, if you have followers then your post will stick to their "home" tab. Also your followers can comment and reblog your post. That will also help gain more audience.

Use Minnow Boosters

---

Minnow boosters are those which helps to boost the post of minnows. There are quite of few of minnow boosters out there, and each of them have their own way of working. To name a few @randowhale, @minnowbooster, @booster are some famous minnow boosters out there. To use @randowhale, you have to send 1 sbd/steem to @randowhale with your blog post as memo. @randowhale will then vote you with random % ranging from 2 to 5. And, to use minnowboosters you need to the same but you will have pre determined upvote result that is proportional to how much you send them. You can go to @minnowbooster to see more offers from them. @booster works kind of differently. Here you have to bet your upvote. If you send more steem/sbd then you will get more upvote value. You can go and check each one of those which you like, and also if you want me to explain more about them then let me know in the comment.

Use Whaleshares

Yeah, whaleshares!! Ever heard of this before?? If yes, then good! Anyway, this is a project by @officialfuzzy which attempts to help steemit user gain a whale upvote. All you need is a whaleshare token. If you gain whaleshare tokens then you are good to go. You can gain whaleshare tokens from steemit contests, or by trading with other cryptos. Also you can hang on their official discord channel and see what's coming. You might get some whaleshares there, who knows!!

Gain Guild Votes

---

Yeah, there are curation trials to help you minnows. To name a few @steemvoter and @curie are some of the famous curation trials out there. In @steemvoter, your friend should nominate your post and you would get thousands of upvotes from their trail. Yeah, it is as simple as that. Your friend nominates you in the comment of their post, and if he/she gets high upvote value in his/her nomination comment then you get upvotes from their trial. @curie works kind of differently. You have to pay some small fee if you get selected for their trail vote. You can nominate yourself via streemian website. If you want to know how to do that then let me know in the comment and I will explain you in brief or you can view their steemit posts from their profile @curie. And, some of them are also there which you can upvote if the trial owner thinks your post is worthy. For example, @acidyo runs a trail of 10+ members (approx) and he is a very good curator and he upvotes posts that he thinks are worthy. @papa-pepper is also a good curator and he also holds a small trail of 10+ members (approx).
