Dear Minnows.. Thank me later :D

Going on two months now on Steemit!

( Resteem this and upvote please to get it #trending and visible to help more #Minnows and #Plankton )

When I first came to Steemit I was completely amazed with the platform.. I was blown away with the fact that something existed on the internet that gave you money for posting.. No ads.. No MLM / Pyramid Scheme Bs.. Just a community of interesting humans all thriving in the early stages of this awesome technology.

I had watched numerous videos on #Youtube from people like

@jerrybanfield and

@brandonfrye that basically taught me how Steemit worked inside and out. Also opened my eyes to the crazy amount of tools and applications that have been developed around #Steemit / #Steem / #SBD..

Tools & Apps like :

My first few weeks my posts would be hit and miss but all would make a few cents at the least. Until... I discovered the up-voting bots on one of the tools I listed above (https://Steembottracker.com) and there, you can see a whole list of accounts that have a high amount of #SP (Steem Power) who give you an up vote on your posts (based on your vote along side all those who also contribute to the pot that voting round) when you send them SBD/Steem.

Since its easier to show rather than tell, I'm going to be using @Minnowhelper as an example.

So first find a post of yours you want to boost that is no older than 3.5 days old. (other bots will go all the way up to 6-7 days old) and what you want to do is copy the URL of that post

Next you go to your #Wallet in Steemit and select the amount of SBD or Steem you want to put towards an up vote for your post (Make sure you check out the bots minimum vote amount and check post age limits)
For this I am going to be sending

@minnowhelper 1.0 Steem for a vote. Then for the Memo section make sure you put the URL of your blog post from Steemit.

(AGAIN MAKE SURE THE MEMO IS FILLED OUT WITH YOUR POST URL)

Some bots offer a refund if your post link is invalid some don't though so send these voter bots SBD/Steem at your own digression

These bots have a 2 hour and 40 minute voting cycle from what I understand and sometimes the #ROI can look super promising but be careful.. Just like eBay, people post their bids last minute and that ROI % shrinks the more and more money that fills the pool resulting in a smaller up vote % from that bot.

If this helped any of my fellow #Steemian's & #Minnow's I hope you all will give me an #UpVote and #ReSteem <3

I'm very thankful to be a part of this community and look forward to the world taking on Steemit as the best site in existence for blogging and sharing content.

Again Thank you all for over 400 followers and all of the support!
