Any steemit minnow would one day like to have a bigger influence and stake on this platform as their fellow whales. After doing some research, the following six ways are some of the top-most tips on how you can become a whale this year.
1. Get BTC And Then Buy STEEM
On this platform, steem is like fuel. You need it as long as you want to continue flourishing. One of the easiest and cheapest ways you can get steem is buying it using bitcoin. If you are from EU, you can buy BTC from Bitstamp, and those in the USA can purchase the same from Bitfinex or other local exchanges. You can also buy STEEM directly with Credit Card at a little higher price.
2. Power Up
STEEM is a currency, and to make it usable on the Steemit platform you need to Power Up. Go to https://steemit.com/@YOURNICKNAME/transfers and click https://steemit.com/@YOURNICKNAME/transfers.
3. Start Autovoting Stuff!
Join Steemvoter and put there the users you want to vote automatically when they launch posts. You will also set on time and amounts of power you want to give.
This will not only make those people earn more but also will let you earn as a curator (choosing content that will be popular before it’s well-liked). Select people whom you like their content or search for those with big payouts. Of course, do not forget to put me there :) Cryptofy. However, you can do that manually to see who is worth auto voting and who is not.
4. Follow Popular Vote Trails!
http://streemian.com by @xeroc and @chainsquad allows you to follow manual votes of people whom you think should vote on good stuff. You can again include me Cryptofy or go for other popular guys. Even when you are offline, your account will follow good curators and get you paid. It is a great addition to self-chosen authors to auto-vote.
5. Produce Content
Unless you want to host a witness node the best way is just to write good posts. Don’t copy-paste other people’s contents, lest you find yourself flagged or downvoted. Just write on topics that interest you. Always keep tags on topic and you will gain viewers!
6. Promote Your Posts
After you write a good post, it’s good to let people know about it. Login to Steemit Chat and post it Here or search other channels to do so. Just look for channel rules, that is, never put links in general channel. You can post them on Twitter with tags #steemit $STEEM (yes with a dollar) for a chance to retweet.
Nice post,
I have no intentions of ever becoming a "Whale", but these are some great tips. Honestly I still don't quite understand how Steemit really works and its hard to find clear content on that.
@trevord I agree with you. It's not a platform anyone can understand overnight.
