hey Rydhi, the beautiful thing about this method is that even if you have a very low vote total or just do a small percentage of your total vote like 5%... it is added to the total because we all move together. And while today it is small, one day it will be big... and frankly its awesome because it does count when its added to each others... so don't think your vote is too small... if we all just do a little, it adds up over time!
And on the bandwidth issue, that is an issue with steemit where they limit the amount they allow at different times. usually during the week. It hits everyone and especially the newbies like us. I'm telling you this so that you know its not anything you are doing to make you lose bandwidth...
Have a great day and weekend!
