Welcome to another Steemit Q&A. Let's get started:
Q: How do I change my avatar image?
A: Step 1 - upload your avatar image to https://postimage.io and copy the direct link (end with .png or .jpg)
Step 2 - go to Setting and paste the link above to your "PROFILE PICTURE URL" area.
Now, just click on "UPDATE" then enter your password and you will see a cool new avatar image.
Q: How many tags can I use?
A: You can use up to 5 tags. BUT only use tags that relevant to your post. If you try to spam with irrelevant tags, you will get a visit from steemcleaners with a comment ... it's a long comment but basically it said "you spam tags" :D
Q: How often can I post?
A: Every 5 minutes
Q: How often can I comment?
A: Every 20 seconds
Q: What is the difference between a down-vote and a flag?
They basically the same. got 1 flag = got 1 down-vote
Q: Where do I report a post or comment that contains plagiarism, spam, or abuse?
A: You can report any abusive content on steemit.chat
Note: i know this might sound silly but when you use steemit.chat, never give your Steemit password to anybody regardless of who ask for it. NEVER.
Q: How do I promote a post?
Before you can promote your posts, make sure you have STEEM or Steem dollar in your Steemit wallet.
When you promote your posts, you want your posts to appear in the top 10. Below that, you won't get much attention. The best of course will be top 5.
Step 1: Click on "promoted" tab. Here you will see all promotion posts. Next to the money, you will see a small down-arrow. click on it and you will see how much people are paying to promote for their post.
All you need for your post to appear above them is add 1 cent more to your promote budget :D
in the screenshot, this person pay $213.07 for the #1 spot. if you pay $213.08, your post will appear above that post and will be #1.
By now, you should know how much you will paid for the top 10 spot.
Step 2: Click on the post you want to promote then click on "PROMOTE"
Enter the amount and click PROMOTE.
That's it.
Q: How long my post will be Promoted?
A: 7 days from the day you created your post. After 7 days, your post will be remove from Promoted tab
Q: I'm a new Steemit user, should i promote?
A: For new user, promotion will increase your followers fast but in term of profit, most likely not. The choice is your.
