Inspired by the MinnowSupport Project, our new @Steemvoter Exchange community has been opened a few days ago by me and by my friend, @pavezi.

This awesome community has started on Discord.com. We have opened our own channel and started to advertise it to other Steemians. The growth of this community has been greater than the expected- In just a few days, BOOM! We are already 135 users in the community and it seems like our members like it and co-operate greatly with each other.

So, why are we here?
Our vision is to help minnows (New Steemit users with low reputation) at least to be heard on this huge, growing platform, Steemit. We are used to seeing in the "Hot" and "Trending" sections that most posts there are by authors with a high reputation (65+) which requires a VERY LONG TIME TO ACHIEVE.
I have followed a few "small" users on Steemit just because of their awesome content which I enjoy reading. However, I was shocked when I saw the number of upvotes they receive- Less than 10 upvotes! "This can't be possible", I thought to myself.
I think that besides the minor post-payout those minnows receive, the number of upvotes they receive is just unfair and this is all because they are too small on Steemit. The dolphins and whales take most of the attention of the whole Steemit platform so minnows are drowning among them!

Our solution to this problem
We believe that the MinnowSupport Project is an awesome way to help minnows grow on Steemit, so we are trying to do the same thing, but in a different way:
Our community "thing" is the use of Steemvoter tool on Steemvoter.com. This tool enables you to auto-upvote posts of specific authors you choose on Steemit.
When joining our community on Discord, you will be moved to a registration channel, and after becoming a "Member" of our community, you will gain full access to the "auto-upvote-exchange" channel, which is basically the "Members area".
You will be able to exchange Steemvoter auto-upvotes with all the other Members of our growing community!
It means that you add them to your auto-voting list on Steemvoter and they do the same with you. And after it is done, you will notice these upvotes on EACH OF YOUR NEXT POSTS on Steemit. This really gives minnows the opportunity to grow and to be heard on Steemit.
You may be thinking to yourself now- How the **** they still have a high voting power?
Well, the answer is very simple, exactly like @minnowsupport, the members set a lower voting power on Steemvoter. This is one of Steemvoter's awesome options. You can set a voting power from 0-100%. I believe that an upvote is an upvote. We need to leave the money aside for a moment. A good number of upvotes lets minnows the opportunity to attract Steemians' attention who are users with high reputation who can make a big difference to the post payout.

What I like the most in our community,
Is that we don't force new members to add many other members to their auto-voting list on Steemvoter. We let them join the "Members area" and they are free to do everything from that point. They are eligible to build their own connections with the other members of the community.
Our concept is pretty simple:
The more connections you have = The more auto-upvotes you will receive on your next posts.
I want to give those awesome small authors the opportunity to become "Whales" on Steemit! I want other people to view the awesome content they create! COME ON!!

Hello !I am @minnowhelp, nice to meet you @Lazariko12,
I do track some @booster upvote runs and try to figure out, if this booster upvote really giving a value.
With this upvotes you can earn some money here, if they provide a value. That's what I am testing for new Steemians !
Im my session#1! I tracked amongst other users the upvote boost of @triverse, he boosted his post value to $8.82 , which was $5.08 more than before the booster upvote !
And that with just an investment of $1.96 !
So if you want to see the results of my work, feel free to follow me @minnowhelp

Welcome, Barak @lazariko12 to Steemit.
Hi @nigelmarkdias. Our spirit is all about: Giving & Getting. You add members to your auto voting on Steemvoter and then they add you back. The more members you are making connection with = The more exposure you will have on Steemit :)
What I think is that, if anyone makes an undeserving post, still he will get upvotes through this automated system.
What I feel is that using steemvoter tool is against the spirit of steemit. In steem we upvote those posts which we see and feel that they deserve an upvote. I also stopped using steemvoter because this problem.
The better way to find great posts is to follow good authors.
If we can add a review system in this "Steemvoter Exchange" then we can improve it.
All of these are my personal opinions, but still you guyz are doing a great job. Keep supporting minnows. ;)
Upvoted and Resteemed by the xx_Votes_Plus curation trail! Want more earnings? Follow @dropahead in Streemian https://streemian.com/profile/curationtrail/trailing/396 and/or delegate some STEEM POWER to @dropahead! Keep up the good work!
Thanks!!

Supporting minnows is good idea. But why did you choose to run new bot and not join to @minnowsupport run by @aggroed?
I'm also in MinnowSupport :)
In this case two bots are better than one:-)
Hahaha exactly!
@lazariko You are awesome, I'm so glad you invited me to the group, and I'm so fucking happy I found steemit. I was beginning to lose faith in humanity and social media. Apologies for swearing, just couldn't find another word to express my appreciation. BTW who's the person/people who actually founded steemit, cause I hope they're aware that they are the redeemer!!
Hahahaha, thanks buddy! Thank you for becoming a part of my new community!
Great post, our community is growing by leaps and bounds. Everybody come on in, let's network, an mastermind and encourage and inspire each other, and pick up some steem together!
Thanks! Let's keep up the good work!!

I just wrote my first post yesterday, and am learning all I can about being on steemit. I didn't understand that much on your post, but I am sure day by day I will understand more. Thank you @lazariko12
Excellent post, I think it is very good to take into account people who do not have much time in this environment but who are interested in progress. I have been aui a few days and although I love it I know it is not simple at first.
It's great that you're doing something like this to help new users get more visibility!
