Steemit is pretty much still in its infancy (launched in March 2016), so we have to rely on all sorts of tools and addons to improve our steemit experience. If you want to know your current voting power percentage, how much someone's upvote is worth or even send a small gift to each of your loyal followers and don't want to do it one-by-one because that would take a gazillion years, you would have to use a tool, that's how it works at the moment. Maybe sometime in the future we won't have to use these external tools and have them built-in directly into the steemit platform. That remains to be seen. Until then, let's take a look at the best tools and addons out there for you to enhance your steemit experience.
❂ SteemD
What is SteemD?
The most important tool out there for checking out A LOT of hidden information about your account as well as checking your voting power, steem power, who upvoted your posts, when and with what percentage, steem transfers, whom you voted for witness and many many more functions.
How to use it?
To check your SteemD profile, you have to go to https://steemd.com/@your-username (replace @your-username with your username if that wasn't obvious enough)
How do I use this tool?
- Check my voting power
- Check incoming transactions and their attached memo without having to go to "Wallet" (mostly when I'm on mobile)
- Checking who upvoted my posts and with what percentage
❂ Steemit More Info
What is Steemit More Info?
Steemit More Info is an awesome browser addon created by @armandocat that adds new tabs with custom information DIRECTLY into steemit. It's still an early version and it has its hiccups, but even so, an extremely useful addon. It shows your voting power, how many posts you upvoted today, recent upvoters of your posts and how much $ they added to it, your recent upvotes and whole lot more features. You can even sort posts into a grid or have a floating bar with the posts tags, date, author and number of upvotes so you can easily upvote or resteem that post. If you worry about your account's security, the code is readily available up on github. This addon is safe and won't steal your private information.
Check THIS post from its creator @armandocat to find all about Steemit More Info.
How to use it?
- Google Chrome → DOWNLOAD LINK

❂ Tipper
What is Tipper?
Tipper is an automated tool for those who want to reward their followers by giving them a tip. You can use it to promote your posts, a new tool, a new bot or reaching a follower milestone for example. The downside is that it charges you a fee of 0.001 SBD / tip sent, but the upside is that you don't have to send hundreds of transactions one-by-one.

On this website add (in order):
- Your account name

- click on Calculate fee and wait a few seconds; it will tell you how much SBD you have to pay (fee included) and how many followers will receive your tip
- click on Tip/Transfer to send followers a tip
How do I use it?
- To promote my new posts and increase the number of upvotes I receive while maintaining a good and close relation with my followers (and it works)
❂ Steemit dead followers
What is Steemit dead followers?

❂ Dtube
What is Dtube?
Dtube is like YouTube, but made for steem. Any video you post on Dtube will also create a post on steemit with the exact same title and description. Also, any upvote you receive on the video will show up on the post and viceversa, same goes with replies.
How do use it?
Go to the Dtube platform and log in (check this video I made some time ago about how to log in to Dtube) then start posting videos.

Excellent post and tools collection! Resteemed.
This is an awesome post . I'm surprised earned more from this post !!!!
I did not know about these tools, I'll try them too.
Streemian is asking for ACTIVE key, why not ask just for the posting key? I don't want to give the active key ever.
Very comprehensive. Thanks.
You're welcome!
