Steemit Basics - How to Resteem

[cryptowallet]

For those of you new on steemit you have probably seen people saying "I will resteem this...", but wonder what is resteeming and how do you do it. Simply put, Resteeming is very similar to sharing a post on Facebook. It posts on your "blog", but is technically still the post of the person who you resteemed it from (see below)

In order to resteem, all you have to do is outside the post, you will see a little bent arrow (as shown below). Once you click on it the post is resteemed.

If you liked this post feel free to "Resteem" this post and follow me at "https://steemit.com/@cryptowallet"

@cryptowallet I do not see the Resteem bent arrow at all. Do you know what has changed or if I'm doing something wrong? Thanks for helping.

[writeorwrong]

You cannot resteem a post more than 7 days old.

thanks, man. that really sucks

[janine-ariane]

would be handy to say that in the beginning lol i looked to all on the page for 100 times...

[artgirl]

Aw that's too bad. :(

[anagramatic]

Is there a way to do it with the command line? Why 7 days? Who chose this? How is it enforced? Why?

[frankyguti]

I asked the same thing

[mplsmini]

Thanks for this information! I was searching for the resteem symbol on an older post. I'll have to keep up so I'll have a chance within the first week... Good to know!

[dive-into-crypto]

Thanks mate. I was wondering where is the resteem icon.

[frankyguti]

Why?

[kevinwealthy]

Really? I wonder why that is so?

[bfire]

I'm getting the same

[bondu47]

The same for me :/

[hudabukhari]

Same problem

[palani]

It is because this is an old post.

[joeparys]

This was very helpful thank you. If anyone want to re-steem any of my posts please feel free to @joeparys

[bellakrinkle]

Thank you for this info joeparys
Can you say more on how you (we) can make an expired re-steem time frame happen once someone like you is contacted? I think I'll look you up and perhaps follow you based on this reply on how to re-steem.
That 7 day rule is ridiculous because there are already too many posts to see and research in one week.

Do you get any financial incentive for resteemed?

[dasczecher]

[gimme-free]

There 's no resteem button though. Is it because I'm still new? I really want to resteem some articles I found that interest me.

[chinesejapanese]

Yeah, I have the same issue. Maybe I am dense, but I can not figure out how to resteem this post.

I understand that if I saw the post on @cryptowallet's profile page there would be a resteem button (looks like a "U-turn" symbol). However, there are a lot of newer posts on his profile page, and this one is buried.

I tried the search function on steemit.com, but that just produces a link back to this page.

There ought to be a resteem button made available within a post.

[suzique]

I was just going to goggle about resteeming and then your post showed up. Thank you so much for this information. And what is the purpose of resteem to gain more exposure for the post?

[digestingreality]

Great thanks for the info.

[missiontothemoon]

[avvah]

I see this bent arrow on your post, but do not see it on any post I want to resteem... mmm?

[hearmespeak]

@avvah - depending on how old the post is. If the post is after 7 days, you can no longer resteem the post.

[healthiswealth]

Thanks @cryptowallet

Am I missing something, but I don't have that little round-about arrow for resteeming on the post I'd very much like to resteem. I also don't see that arrow on yours. Any thoughts?

[judyroberts]

Helpful explanation to me as a newbie. Thank you, Crypto Wallet.

[lemontree]
