Learning how everything works on the Steemit platform by using the community has been a lot of fun these past 60 days. In a way it is very similar to the the video game Minecraft which was an immense success because the community was in a way the tutorial.
Most important things when starting
Steemit Tools
Steemspectacles is a websites that shows you who your biggest supporters are. I try to do my best to keep track of this and give support back where I can. You can see where your own votes go out to on Votes info
I started to use steemvoter to automate my voting so the ones supporting me get automatic support back. You can keep track of new followers at Steem Followers. I try to have a regular look and visit each one of my new followers. The first number I look a is how many people they are following. if this is too high, I honestly don't bother unless they have really good content. I try to keep my voting power above 80% so my upvote is actually worth something and use Steemd to track this. Steem FTW can be used to track how long it takes to regain your voting power.
Sending Private Messages
You can send private messages on steemit by using # and a space in front of the message you send out...
Sending Public Message = typed message (everyone can read this)Sending Private Message = # typed message (only receiver can read this)

Let me know some things you learned about steemit in the comments Thanks to Everyone for the support so far!
(thanks to @jaki01)
Good tips here and I think you've inspired me to lift my game a bit with my own posts.
"money talks!"
meanwhile at the @steemitblog headquarters:
LOL!!
Yah, I know it's actually sad. Here, have some sweetness in exchange of forgivz:
I hate cats from the bottom of my heart but thanks :D
So did my human Coco....until she had one. No worriez...there's a first for everything.
I'm using @minnowbooster as a good way to use SBD to power up some more.
is this reliable then ? when I have quickly skimmed across this it seemed rather scammy! if it works then amazing for us :)
@minnowbooster works great. I have only used it a handful of times but each time they give me an upvote within 2 minutes and has been worth more than the 1 sbd I had to send them. Do keep an eye on how much voting power they have left though so you get more than what you put in. Definitely recommend giving it a try!
These services tend to be reliable and I believe it's the best way to convert SBD into STEEM POWER.
I only use it on posts where I have the rewards set at power up 100%. Some things that might be useful to know to maximise the return. Make sure to have a look at the @minnowbooster voting power. (it was at 50%+ when I used their service on this post and it gave a 8$+ upvote for a 5 SBD price.Also make sure you use the service within the first 15 minutes so the curation rewards go to you. after 30 minutes will lose 25% of the vote towards curation rewards.
So 5 SBD is good for around 8$+ of Steem power after 7 days and you get some extra post attention as a bonus. If anyone knows where to get a better deal please let me know !
Thanks for your 60 day update too.
I think if people are not sure how to use Photoshop they can always use canva.com and use the logo design template on there to give them a decent size for your profile photo as I think it is 500 x 500.
Thanks for the link !
I'll have a look at it
No worries like and your welcome too!
@costanze awesome post! I was considering doing a post similar to this about what all I had learned/questions I still have but you pretty much covered everything I needed to know. I will definitely start using some of the tools you provided. Greatly appreciated!
Good info dude, random question are you looking into doing Grand Sumo betting at all?
I never heard of Grand Sumo Betting.
My main focus in betting is on the major Soccer leagues and some US Sports.
ah I gotcha, the event is called Grand Sumo, it's sumo the sport not like a website lol.
I love this! Very helpful! Thank you very much for this info! :D will save me a ton of time :D
Thank you for sharing what you've learnt. These tips are very useful :)
