Best Upvote Strategy - Steemit

in #steemit7 years ago

Here's my secret sauce.
Tips to make your upvotes have impact.

Voting is a tool that can help you build friends.

Here's how I approach upvotes on Steemit.

Cheers My Steem Friends!
Much Love, Happy Money Man.

Everything you said about your strategy makes perfect sense! Interaction is so important in Steemit. I for one have lost some touch when it comes to interaction. Other things and projects keep me busy, I keep up the best I can but once my mind s focused on one thing it's stuck on that thing until I know it's functioning at 100%.

I used to post daily on my channel and with pretty good content to boost, along the way somewhere I drifted away from it. It shows, my interaction in my posts has gone down drastically, miss those days where I would almost not be able to keep up with all the comments. I need to get back to it, need to get back to posting and seeing that post spike up to $10+ without any help from pay for vote bots.

You are 100% right when it comes to the upvote philosophy. If you work hard you deserve to reward yourself for it. I know this is a bit of a rant about my own profile and recent activity but it was you who sparked the motivation in me. Need to get back to the old @scrooger and start posting the way I did... Projects are great but they should not get in your way that much. Will have to rework my plans and get time for it all. I am so happy you are doing well and your progress is great motivation for me. =)

All in all, keep doing what you are doing! You are doing really great. Your energy and positivity is rubbing off on other steemians!

@scrooger is coming back with a vengeance to post awesome content!

Full power upvote to you my friend. I really appreciate your kind comment. I know you do a lot of work behind the scenes.

I mentioned you in my recent radio interview with @ma1nevent.
It's resteemed on my page.

I'm happy to hear we are all motivating each other. I'll talk to you soon bud.

Oh wow that's awesome! I saw it, 30min long though, will listen to it in detail when I have some free time. Looking forward to learn some more about you!

Haha, I know. It's pretty freakin long. No worries if you don't get to it. A lot of the things we talked about will eventually come out in my short posts.

Cheers bud. I hope you had a good weekend.

I listened to it! Dinner and instead of a show I decided to just listen! Was pretty good mate! Everything you said came off so positive and good for your future Steemit goals. Liked it a lot! Was pretty long but well worth it to learn a bit more about being happy about my money.

Really liked the part where you talk about buying experiences. That for me has always been a bit better than a physical gift. We can link so much more to an experience than we can to an object.

Awesome stuff mate! Just awesome!

Had to drop my big upvote for anyone who listened to a whole half hour of me talking. LOL. Thanks a lot mate. I really appreciate you listening.

We just had an experience gift this weekend. For our wedding my cousin got us a river rafting tour. We went with them. It was so freakin fun! The vid I posted today is about the trip.

You're right though, purchasing experiences is awesome. I'm remembering a post you had about riding a boat out into the sea in Korea. Cool.
Cheers my friend. Have a nice day.

Oh my that sounds awesome looking forward to the video!

Was an interesting half an hour so well worth it. =)

Tell your cousin @scrooger thinks he is awesome! He will have no idea what it means but it's the thought that counts. =)

Honestly I haven't seen anyone on this platform with such energy . I loved that ! But here's the thing , I seem to have putting putting all my energy to the community , over and over to same people and new people , with great comments and what not , but they don't do the same , why ? I put my heart in my posts as well .

It seems that people do not want to be generous back , they just want to keep getting . It's quiet sad to me

Well, I always upvote and leave comments on people's blog posts, I have the same problem, I hardly get upvotes and comments like I used to on here. And If I want to use my money to get a better PC, it will take awhile only getting 19-20 cents a post and barley anything a comment

I gave a little upvote towards a new pc. Good luck. Thanks a lot for watching and commenting. Cheers.

Thanks so much for such a nice compliment. The funny thing is I'm a little quiet and shy sometimes. I've just recently found a lot of creativity through Steemit and I'm feeling pumped.

As to people not returning your energy and comments, let em slide. Those people will all sort themselves out. It's better to have 10 people you truly connect with then 100 people sucking your energy. That's my feel.

Cheers. I really appreciate you watching. Have a nice day.

PS I read your posts on your page. Great content!

It's a pleasure , and you're right . I feel like the more we worry about others , the less successful we will be . Thank you for taking your time out to read some of my blogs , truly means a lot . Keep the energy following from your videos . Cheers 🍻

And you are making more than 200 dollars per week?

I comment my ass off to earn , only last week has been good where I was able to get $200 besides that , it's 100 or below usually .

That's actually something not many people know about. A lot of people think that posting to your own blog is the only way to make money on Steemit. But another great way is to comment on other posts! It's all about being involved in the Steemit community!

Motivation.png

I make over 100 comments a day . Engagement is key

you are doing good .

You make a great point @masteranibal. Curation and commenting, is just as important as the content creation. Thanks for your comment. Cheers.

Thanks for the shout out! I have still been voting like a madman! Hahahah

Hell yea. Actually your advice to vote hard change my whole style. You got me acting right on Steemit. It works well.
I'm just continuing to test.

Go ham! Haha.
Cheers man.

Yeah we have certainly seem the extremes of the way people act on here but when people see you everywhere voting like crazy they will remember it. If People don't know about me on this platform then I have failed.

Especally if the price dips and people get frustrated. If you outlast all those people and are able to still participate on here during the sluggish times it will pay off even if it can be frustrating at times to see the value of your account erode away partially.

I have big plans going forward with Steemit!

That actually a pretty rad point for me to remember. If my steemvoter is set up just pumping out votes, then I will be really active even in slow times. People will remember that. I'll keep that in my back pocket.

Good info. I appreciate it. Thanks again.

Sounds like your strategy is to just be a decent contributor to the platform, which is really amazing when you think about it - the fact that the platform can inherently curate itself towards better content.

The thing is though, it's really easy. I used to use Reddit, and so much of what I put out into the community was either lost in the ether. It's really encouraging that the community on here is so positive and responsive. I never understood why people called Reddit toxic, and not that I do now, but I get it.

Either way, thanks for the post. :+1:

I think the main difference between Reddit and Steemit is social accountability. On Reddit it's easier to say something outrageous that you would never say face to face with someone.

On Steemit there is more of a community and flagging. This means more consequences for trolls. This keep things in check a little bit more.

I like the difference. I think its good for us to think through our statements. Glad to see you on the platform. Cheers.

Very nice , i will follow you!

Well wonderful. Welcome to the party! haha
Cheers.

Nice tips. Yes I am currently at 17% due to continuously upvoting. :D :P

Haha yes, that means you been voting a lot. Great work.
I try to monitor my voting power and keep it up, but it can be hard sometimes.

Cheers. I hope you had a nice weekend.

Thanks. Right, hard to wait for 4 days before upvoting again. :D

Thanks a lot for the useful content! People that aren't on Steemit just for the money are rare and I believe you are one of them. You are a genuine, energetic and happy man! UPVOTED!

WooHoo. Thanks so much for such a nice compliment. Cheers to you. Have a great day.

amazing
followed and upvoted ♥

That point truly make sense if you don't cheer for yourself how will others will cheers for you i am really inspired by that that true and earlier i was too and till now i up vote everyone but giving only a cent and something nothing :(
By the way that was great tips you shared with all thanks for hashing all the information you did all the hard work keep it up my friend :D

You're always a nice inspiration for me @blazing. Thanks for watching. I'll keep working hard. I'm having fun interacting with everyone.
Cheers. Have a great weekend.

Hey @happymoneyman! I love this blog! The Idea that what you put in comes back later! I really believe in this! Digging your hat and cool chilled out music! I am sure this video has provided a lot of value and inspiration to many others! This gets my upvote!

@starkerz! Thanks for your nice comment. I really appreciate you watching.
Haha I'm glad you appreciate the hat. It has a cool story. I got it at an outpost in Canada with my grandpa back in the day.

Hope you had a nice weekend. Cheers.

Great hat!! Great history behind it as well!! Hope it lasts u many more years and we see it in your posts a lot ;))

We'll see what kind of run I can get out of it. It would be rad if I can not lose it for 30 years. We'll see. Wish me luck.

This is awesome man, and inspiring. I found a few good things that I will think about implementing into my own Steemit journey. Thanks for the straight to the point short inspiring video.

I'm glad it made you think a little. We all find our own strategy that kind of shows our unique self. If you have any cool little tips that work for you, let me know. Have a great day. Cheers.

Thank you will do.

other good tools to build your blog and friends are steemit.chat and commenting on other post :D. Now let's see the video :)

Oh Steemit.chat is a great tool. Good call.

Thank you for sharing! Very helpful. Keep up that upbeat positive energy.

Awesome. Thanks so much for watching. Have a great day.

Thank you , these are really good advices for beginners!

If we all just keep learning together, we'll get there.

#steemit
That was interesting
I am following your account every day { 🤝 }
@haji

Thanks so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it. Cheers my friend.

i love your strategy even selfvote, once per day is okay its not problem, problem is if people upvote only their posts and friends, also to upvote your comments is very nice strategy , i started to upvote my comments too (except of course some shit comments like upvote me and i upvote you ) , so ye your strategy definitely good

Heck yea. It's fun to vote most of people's comments too. I feel like I'm just dropping upvotes like a madman. Liberating!
Thanks for your comment. I really appreciate it.

i wasted my voting power, but still will upvote your comment haha, hope to recover in 1-2 days just need to take days off from steem, or i upvote too much

That's one part I wish I would have mentioned in my vid. I try to stay above 80% and never sit at 100% voting power. So this weekend I'm going away. I will probably vote a bunch before I leave and then let it recharge into the 90s over the weekend.
Just a little technical thought. Fun times. The game aspect also makes Steemit fun.

@happymoneyman

Such nice and positive advice , I will take everything I learned from your video into action!!

I'm honored that you will use some of this idea. Cheers my friend. Have a nice day.

Absolutely, you deserve a 100% upvote from yourself. Love your videos! So happy and uplifting, and great tips! YAY!

Great networking strategy skills! I dig it. Keep going!

BTW. I'll be in SF this weekend! Just throwing that out there! hehe!

Awesome. Oh darn, me and wifey are coming though Sac Saturday to go raft the American River.
It's all good, I think I was going to have a hard time talking the other 5 people into stopping anyway. Haha.

Have a rad trip to SF. I love visiting the city. What are you up to in SF?

aww visiting friends that are visiting from Texas! :)

Aww darn it! We just missed each other. Will have to do a meetup another time. Rafting is so much fun, ya'll are going to enjoy it! :)

I'm so pumped. We have this funny little RV that we take everywhere. It's named "chug".

Ahhh, yay. Can't wait to get in the water.

And, yes! We'll find a easy time to all meet.
Have a great trip to the city.

HAHAH cute!

Aww same to you! Be safe. :)

@happymoneyman - Sire, you are absolutely brilliant. I love your works and the way you think. A useful tips you are sharing with us Sire. No other people do Sire.

+W+ [UpVoted & ReSteemed]

Thank you so much. Your very nice comment inspires me to keep working hard. I really appreciate your support.

100% like and resteem

Thank you very much. I appreciate your support @stmit.

Thank you so much for very useful content...both steemians dont know...used their upvotes correctly...I think your this post is very useful to new steemians....like me...
Wel done my dear friend @happymoneyman

Upvoted and reseemed...
Cheers!...

I'm happy it helps a little bit. Thank you again for commenting. AND resteeming. I really appreciate you. Cheers.

Thank you, your little presentation was fun to watch and put a smile on my face! I wasn't expecting that. Some great thoughts here. Although I'm still not entirely sure I'd feel comfortable voting for myself, you make a convincing enough point that I will consider it now.

Thank you so much for watching. I'm glad it makes you think a little bit. Everyone has their own style.

Have a great day. I appreciate you comment. Cheers.

Its really good strategy...i have been following you for quite some time as of now....and what i have discovered about you is that you are so enerygetic all the time you do something in steemit and in addition i must say you always used to tell your pints very precisely with out adding any garbage or junk to it to make it lengthy....this is what makes you so unique in steemit.

Thanks a lot once again @happymoneyman sir ....steem on....and stay blissful....

Thank you so much. I will keep trying to be precise. I appreciate you following and commenting.

great way to upvote - i am trying to rebuild mine after i ran it down too low for impact - stay cheerful and i followed you cause i want to see more of your upbeat videos

Awesome. I appreciate your follow. I'll keep it upbeat. Have a great day. Nice to meet you.

Its really good strategy..Thank you for resteem. Very helpful.

@goldcoin. Thanks again for watching. You're awesome.

@happymoneyman,
Actually this is a good to for most of us! I might try this strategy, coz my current one is s*cks. :D Thank you very much for sharing such great tips with us! Really appreciate your effort!

(My voting power is still regenerating, therefore please allow me two more days to provide 100% upvotes for your posts)

Cheers~

Haha, we will all keep changing our strategy over and over. If your power is down, that means you've been voting hard. Good job.

Cheers my friend.

It was such a pleasure to watch this video. It gave me motivation for steeming on. Thank you so much, I really needed it.

Also, really like your way of thinking that everything returns to you. Karma bitches!!! :D

haha. YEA KARMA BITCHES! Thanks for your classic comment. Cheers. Feelin good today.

I'm sorry for classic comment, I just wanted to say thanks. :P

I didn't mean to go around and leaving comments like "cool video bro" or "very amazing" :D

I appreciate that. Nobody wants the norm. Gotta keep em curious... or it all gets boring real fast.

Yeah, that's true. You are doing it great with this video (didn't yet checked your other articles). It was really something refreshing on steemit and def not classical at all. It so nice to see people there that record themselves on camera. I have a respect for that kind of people. So, keep up a good work. You amazed me with this video, that's sure.

PS, I have kind of random slang from growing up in the mountains. Haha. By, "classic" I mean your comment had earned it spot in the history books. It will become a "classic". A good thing.

haha, I gotta pay attention sometimes I just type exactly how I talk.

Rad, cheers man. Have a nice day.

Oh then we have a little misunderstanding there... In that case, thank you. :D haha

I used to think that you described it with classic cause it was everyday, boring and mediocre.

No worries for typing, maybe someone with better understanding of language will know at first what you were talking about.

Have a nice day too. Cheers.

im recharging my vote right now so i can add some value but might upvote and resteem this because its good advice, i always try and leave a nice comment but i do feel bad not upvoting good content :)

No worries. Feel free to stop by again. Thanks a lot for your comment and resteem. It's nice to help get the message out. Cheers my friend.

I love your energy! I reply on posts a lot, never actually counted, but a lot. I hardly ever get an upvote on a reply, and I don't think it has to do with what I write. For one thing, I don't think most people know that you can actually help each other by upvoting replys. They don't realize that in Steemit replys Are posts too. I read a lot of replys after I read a post, and if I like the comment I give it a vote!
On another note, I saw somewhere (in the FAQS I think) that the upvote of your own post can increase the potential payout of the post, but that you will not get any curation reward. I believe that this is also a little known fact and why a lot of people feel there's something almost sinister about upvoting yourself.
Anyway, great video!

I think your right. It's nice to upvote comments. You spend time watching and then thinking of a comment and that has value. I agree.

I think your correct on how the curation rewards work. My feeling is that if you are voting with authenticity, that it will all work itself out.

Cheers. Have a great day.

I loved your secret sauce :) And some amazing advice... I have been Upvoting like mad ever since I joined Steemit I haven't learned any other way to do so!! But I can't believe this is the first time I have came across your Profile :( You have so much energy I can't wait to see more now :)

Rad! Keep voting hard. Thanks so much for watching. I really appreciate your kind comment. It's nice to meet you. Have a great weekend.

I know I will do :) It was a great watch too... Thanks for the positive vibes!! Hope you had a nice weekend

off topic comment warning! Great interview yesterday on the @ma1nevent show! That was cool. I didn't get to listen to the whole thing because work wanted me to work...LOL but what I did get to hear was cool!
Have a wonderful day my friend!

That's kind of annoying that work wants you to actually work.
Maybe you can talk to them about that little issue they are having. Haha.

Cheers. Thanks a lot for listening to a bit anyway. Stay flying high bud. I'll be by your page soon to see your new antics.
Cheers.

Thank you for sharing your strategies with us!

Great to see a big smile and a generous disposition - I always give my upvoters a small gift - one day it will be much larger. Being very new to the whole aspect of Steem, the learning curve is steep but enjoyable.

Such great information and enthusiasm! Thank you so much for sharing. This was very inspirational. Keep up the positivity and great work, my friend.

i came to you through your this post on YouTube and Wow got to be one of the best videos i have seen on tips for steemit.
Being new to steemit i have definitely got a lot to learn and in the 3 weeks i have been using steemit i'm very surprised that i have been up voting and commenting just like you have described in this video and have met some great people along the way. I know this is an old post of yours but felt it was fitting to comment here being that this is the post that i discovered you on. thanks for reading

Keep Steeming
