Don't upvote too quickly or too often. Upvote no more than 25 times per day and upvote posts which are 20-35 minutes old for curation rewards. Also make sure that you are doing this with popular posts.
Having a catchy title is also great, but no click bait!
Leave thoughtful, sincere comments and you will be rewarded for it.
Gratitude is super important. When people are spending time to comment on one of your posts, respond to them. This will go a long way. Be grateful that they are spending their time on you.
Following accounts with tens of thousands of steem power is great to do. Their posts will appear on the home page and will generate far more revenue than those with low steem power. (overall)
Great tips, although at least until the next hardfork you can upvote up to 40 times per day without depleting your voting power at a faster rate than it recharges :)
I started off by upvoting every post I saw. haha
Currently I am unable to upvote it says I need to recharge.
I'm going to buy steem power this weekend so that will help!
How does voting power recharge? Is it just a time thing?
There is good info on this in the FAQ

Thanks, I've read some of the stuff there, but haven't finished. Looks like I've still got plenty of Steem reading ahead of me.
Thanks for the info. <3
Great tips but why upvote posts 20-35 minutes old? I've heard that before but don't understand why that is relevant. Thanks.
The algorithms used make it so that if you upvote beyond 15 minutes you earn more money. Upvoting after 30 minutes is best. But you also want to upvote a popular post before its too popular. You want to get in early, just not within the first 15 minutes or you wont get much of a reward at all.
Crazy. So many tricks to figure out. Thanks for the help
