Hello And Welcome To Steemit!
It is a platform like none other. You can get to know people from all over the world. If you continue to post great informative content you will grow a following in no time!
Start following some authors that post good content and upvote them as well. Follow Me! Make some friends and you will be well on your way to earning some nice curation rewards and growing your following.
I have created some great YouTube videos that you can watch to learn all about Steemit and how to succeed using it. A new video will be released every week so consider subscribing to learn even more about Steemit! If you ever have any questions, or need help with something, feel free to comment on the videos as well.
Regarding your questions, the vote value on a post is determined by the vote value of the people who vote on it. Therefore, if one person has a vote value of $10 and votes on your post then you will have $10 on that post along with one vote. However, if 100 people who have vote values of $0.01 each all vote on your post then you will only have $1 on that post along with 100 votes.
Best Of Luck!
