Hi, guys! Krazorcen here, sharing what I learned in my research on getting more upvotes in your blogs and increasing your earnings. There are a lot of tutorials on how to start your hive account or how to create an excellent blog. However, I had a hard time searching for who can upvote you constantly and will have a high chance of getting an upvote. If you are a newbie this is for you and if you are already blogging and only getting minimal upvotes this is for you. It worked for me, and it might work for you.
@ecency can help you promote/boost your post via their website(ecency.com). You just need ecency points to be able to do that.
To learn more about ecency you can check the FAQ's on their website( here).
GETTING ECENCY POINTS
- Using the website and being active(posting blog, comment, like/upvote) will give you points.
- Buying them via HBD/SWAP.HIVE.
The minimum amount of Token you can buy is 1 HBD or HIVE. The amount of Ecency points you will receive will depend on the price of these tokens.
If you don't have any HIVE tokens or HBD tokens. You can watch @MrKStar youtube video tutorial[here] on how to buy Hive token and send it in the keychain.
A.) BOOSTING YOUR POST
Use your ecency points to get an upvote from ecency.
The minimum amount of points you can use to boost your blog is 150 which is equivalent to $1 and the maximum is 500 which will give you $3.33. So if you are buying points worth $1, it can be boosted to $3.3, which will give you a profit of $1.65.
B. PROMOTING - PROMOTING/ENDORSING your blogs, similar to how ads work. You will not be getting an upvote but ecency will promote your blogs on their website and app.
PGM is a Play Gamer Token. Created by @zottone444, you can also use it as a tag(#PGM) if the contents of your post are related to gaming.
@zottone444 also upvotes blogs, even if it's not related to gaming as long as you follow his guide here.
STEPS:
@pishio has a free upvote service. You can find the guidelines here.

@droida is similar to pishio. You can find the guidelines here.
I post blogs daily in the hive. But at some point, we will lose ideas, we won't know what to write or where to start. That's where these challenges and contests come, instead of thinking of a new idea that we can post. We can use that challenge as a topic and make a great blog about it. And if they liked it, we might win those challenges and get upvoted.
First, you need to join their page/community, here. They have a weekly challenge that would help your hive account grow. You just need to participate in these challenges. However, before you can participate in their challenges, you need to play the game. And if you don't have an account yet, you can register here, and you can hit me up so I can help you progress in the game.
These are the challenges that @splinterlands upvotes.
Make sure to follow their page(https://peakd.com/@splinterlands/) to get the latest challenges. Maximize your earnings and join them.
Similar to Splinterlands challenges. Rabona has its challenges. I am not familiar with this game yet. But planning to play it in the future. This is the link for the challenge(here).
Thanks to @theterminal discord group. I discovered these challenges.
Recently, I joined a webinar from the @hiveph discord and learned a lot about how curators curate blogs. Let me share with you what I learned.
There are a lot of excellent and good blogs being posted daily. However, it was posted in the wrong community or they did not post in a community at all, or the tags were incorrect.
Curators check your activity if you interact with others(upvotes, comments, and replies).
You need to post your blogs in the correct community or the first tag of the post should be in the community.
After playing splinterlands, you want to start growing your account. You can check the prices of the cards, transaction history, buying, selling, or renting of your splinterlands assets in peakmonsters. You can visit their website here: (peakmonsters.com).
Share your experience on using their website and post it on their page (here). @peakmonsters curates blogs that are related to them.
Thank you so much for explaining it to a noob like me, @indayclara.
Did you know you can earn more than just Hive/HBD token by just using the correct tags?
There are a lot of blogs regarding this topic and a lot of groups have discussed this. @hivelist has an amazing explanation regarding how to use the correct tags. You can find his blog here.
This is also an awesome explanation from @theterminal discord group.
and lastly, you will get these tokens from @curation-cartel, if you use these tags and used them correctly.
Did you know that rewards below $0.020 are never actually paid out and get entirely erased on day seven? On this part, @dustbunny will come in place, he will be helping you with those dust. For further details, you can check dustbunny's post I'm Still Alive - Fluffing Up Dust on HIVE and Let's talk about Dust, and a Bunny, and briefly mention Kittens.
Credits to @theterminal, I learned this because of them.
Occasionally @leo.voter will upvote your blogs, as long as the blog is posted from their website https://leofinance.io/, even if the topic is not related to finance. Again this is OCCASIONALLY and it is not 100%. Check their profile here.
This is my blog regarding my splinterlands battle challenge that was upvoted by Leo.finance here.
Ever since I became a witness of @arcange, they upvote my blogs.
Similar to ARCANGE, since I became a witness of @steemitboard. They upvote my blogs too.
If you post your blogs and share them on Twitter and tag #POSH in your tweets, you will be getting POSH tokens. @acidyo created a guideline for more details. You can read it here. You will earn POSH tokens if you follow his guide. Make sure to read it.
If you are new to the hive and blogging, this is an excellent post (3 things Newbies should do in their first week on hive) from @livinguktaiwan.
These are also some of the compilations that @mozzie5 created to IMPROVE the QUALITY of your CONTENT.
The best advice for newbies is that you should join communities. I learned all of this by joining the communities.
These are my favorite communities that you should join.

I have been joining and lurking in a lot of communities/discord channels just to get more upvotes and learn more tips and tricks to get a higher upvote count. There will be a lot of things that I have missed and if you share them in the comment it will be greatly appreciated.
The best way to get more upvotes and earn more in your blog post is by creating a quality blog, interacting with others, and increasing your connection. At the end of the day, they will be the ones upvoting your post.
Thanks to @indayclara for the amazing webinar about improving our blogs, importance of communities, and all about OCD programs.
And @theterminal the discord. I haven't been interacting with them, just reading their chats and I learned a lot. Make sure to join them, and ask them questions, as they are the gurus of the hive and they will have the answers.
