Hello, how does this system exactly work. Because I find it hard to earn some steem dollars from my posts.
For an example if you get 50 up votes on your post, isn't that supposed to increase your amount of Steem?
And in my case I have earned $0.05 on a post with 28 upvotes.
While on a previous post with 48 upvotes and 1 comment, the reward was $0.00.
Why is that? Can someone explain me, I'd be thankful.
It's not just about getting more votes, it's about getting bigger votes. Everyone on this platform is a stakeholder, including you. Bigger stakeholders have bigger votes. For example, 20 votes from new users might not even break $0.01 on your post. But my vote can bring it up to $0.48 on its own. ;-)
Each persons vote power and the reward you recieve, is based on how much steempower they have and what % of that power they vote with. Each vote adds to your reputation but may not add a visual amount to your payout. At 10k steempower my vote will add $0.05 and that goes up the more the post payout is at when I vote.
I think you need more Steem power, I dunno, I'm new here too.
If you look at who voted the top ones will be those with the most Steem Power. If they have many thousands then you will make more than if they just have hundreds. You need to build a following. Follow people and comment on their posts, but don't just ask them to follow back.
The system is designed so that people can't game it by creating lots of accounts. There are lots of 'bot' accounts, but they don't have enough SP to give anything with a vote.
