For a start, you can jon by sending 1 STEEM to @steembasicincome and include the name of who you want to sponsor in the memo.
To increase your units, you can keep sending more STEEMs to @steembasicincome with the names of those who want to sponsor. You can sponsor one STEEM per person or multiple STEEMs for one person.
But instead of just sending STEEM to @steembasicincome, I think the best way to earn more shares is to host contests and use SBI shares as prizes. In this way, you will hit 3 birds in one stone:
You are encouraging and promoting engagement through your contest.
You are helping others to have SBI share of their own.
The encouragement for contests is neat. Generally a well done answer but for a question as basic as "how do I join?" it's better to give short and to the point answer.
Firstly, you can simply send 1 STEEM (or more - full amounts only, no part units can be allocated) to @steembasicincome and include someone else's account name as the transaction memo.
Second, delegate STEEM power. 1 unit is granted per 2 SP delegated and remains in place until the delegation is removed.
Thirdly, participate in some of the many contests run by fellow SBI members. This is not only a great way to potentially win some units sponsored (free units) but also can help you network and grow your following. Have a look at the @steembasicincome account and find the most recent Contest listing post for a great starting point.
This answer is the 7. This is the correct format for the answer to this question.
Firstly could include a fuller account of sponsorship, with the format (@username)
Thirdly, since this is the first question of the FAQ, I believe this pump of contests through the @steembasicincome blog is appropriate (but just this once ;p)

I rate this response as 5. I'm not sure it answers the question "How to Join?" Because from what I know, there are only two ways to do so which are by sponsoring or being sponsored.
delegateThere are a few ways to get shares in SBI. You can send 1 Steem to @steembasicincome and include the name of who you want to sponsor in the memo. Also, you can be sponsored by anyone else. You can also increase your share count with a delegation of Steem Power. You can use this link to to @steembasicincome you get 1 bonus share for each 2 SP delegated. Another way to increase your shares follow @steembasicincome and watch for giveaways and contest to win more shares. Or you can buy more at any time with the methods above.
Great answer but it needs reminder that units got via delegation aren't permanent and using numbering or bullet format may help the answer to be easier to read.
Rating 7 for the updated version - All the necessary info - kudos for actually putting a delegation link in as almost every response related to delegation doesn't actually include a link. Nice work.
If you own 40+ SBIs, you can link your account to steemit.com using GINAbot with the SBI channel to discord and use # on-demand-boosting. Use of this channel is limited to once in 24 hours
This is helpful information, but not applicable to the category. You could suggest 'What is @sbi-booster, and how do I use it?' as a new question category, and then this is a great response for it!
There are many routes to join and be a member of SBI or increase units:
The second likely route: being sponsored by somebody, these are usually done for a variety of reasons. Some out of good habit, some for contest requirements being fulfilled, others may be a means of payment! But this is most likely in the parts of Steemit that know SBI exists in general.
Fourth likely route: Contributing to this FAQ contest rn and pitting good explanations! They explained above how to do it, what art thou waiting for? If yer reading the comments already and clicked on this post, it already got yer mind rolling to at least make the effort. SO JUMP AND MAKE THE LEAP OF FAITH! :^D
Third likely route: Winning contests that utilize SBI as their main/secondary source of payment to contest entryists. Or to say truly: you won some random place and got rewarded with SBI shares. This relates back to the second route, but this has to be clarified. Why? Because you ought to know many SBI contests do exist and @steembasicincome runs a weekly issue of all contests (well as many as they can find humanly possible) that run/use SBI shares.
The more considered route: making a memo of 1 STEEM to @steembasicincome with the memo message being an account your sponsoring. The account you choose to sponsor can be theoretically anyone (except those on the blacklist). Route: Wallet --> Click on X.XXX Steem drop-down arrow --> Transfer --> The "From" section should automatically be filled, the "To" section goes to steembasicincome, the minimal amount should be 1 STEEM and the memo ought to include the person you wish to sponsor. Exampli gratia: From: @me (that being you fellow Steemian!); To: @steembasicincome; Amount: N (where N is an integer or whole number) STEEM; Memo: @X (where X is the account name being sponsored).
There is a risk to long responses, in that you are more likely to say something inaccurate the more you say. Since you do say 'theoretically anyone' you should clarify 'except yourself'. Since this is not the question about who can be sponsored, I will let it pass here. This response is accepted as a qualifying submission.
Don't forgot you can also earn points by scoring the clarity and helpfulness of other qualifying responses.
Rating 4 - very detailed, and covers the main points. A bit wordy for an FAQ and referencing this FAQ contest in the FAQ's doesn't really work, the FAQ's may be read weeks or months after this contest ends.
You can join by sending 1 STEEM or its multiple to @steembasicincome and include the account name you want to sponsor (with '@') in the memo. You and the sponsee will both receive one SBI share for each STEEM sent to @steembasicincome and you will get enrolled if you haven't.
Point 3 (upvoting all the posts) will increase the upvote value that you receive, but it doesn't actually increase the units. Curation rewards and upvote multipliers are tracked separately (each upvote is rewarded once when the post/comment upvoted pays out, whereas units increase your rshares earn rate in perpetuity).
If you edit that and then let me know, I will review again and hopefully accept your submission after review.

I want to delegate 100 sp to @sgbonus Hi @jk6276! I`m here to help :) If you want to delegate, please make a comment (for example replay to this one) like this:Where X is the amount of SP and @user is the steem user you want to delegate to. For example:@tipU will answer with a delegation link. Hope this helps!:)
You can join by sending 1 Steem (not SBD) per share with the Steem handle of the person you are sponsoring (@blah) in the Memo field to @steembasicincome.
A. you simply have to send one Steem to @steembasicincome and as memo, write @username with username to be that of the person you wish to sponsor.
OR
B. Someone has to sponsor you by sending 1 Steem to @steembasicincome and write your username as the transaction memo.
To Increase your shares;
A. Send more Steem to @steembasicincome and sponsor others with this action.
B. Participate in contests that award sbi unit(s) as a prize or one of the prizes.
C. Delagate Steem Power to @steembasicincome for every 2SP delegated, you get one unit.
D. Upvote posts made by @steembasicincome for every post that you upvote the upvote value will be multiplied by 1.34 and your potential vote amount to be given out. steemauto.com might be a perfect tool to use for this purpose.
Ooh, so close! On point C, the reward ratio for bonus units from delegation has been improved. You now get one unit per 2 SP delegated. If you edit that and then let me know, I will review again and hopefully accept your submission after review.
In the 'To join' section, you could add a little clarity by putting an 'or' between A and B. Not a required change, but it might help your clarity score once the submission is accepted and people start scoring it.
Edit: Accurate now. Response accepted as a qualifying submission.

In my opinion from the way you write the answer it would be major improvement if it's presented with bullet points.
