@bigsilver, put your @name in the section for settings, and save it. Then your stats will always show. This is also where you can choose the node you want to use as @penguinpablo mentioned near the end above. Sometimes one node is temporarily down, and you need to switch nodes. Hope this helps. Cheers!

very helpful, thank you!
Appreciated ... I'm working on increasing my voting power, but it's very slow in coming and I'm not really sure how it all works. Still learning.
thanks again. :)
No problem, @bigsilver. I'm working on that very same thing myself. I have started a curation trail with a specific focus of curating newer members who write in English, but whose first language is not English. Right now I have so little SP that my curating doesn't do much other than encourage these new users. I finally accumulated enough STEEM to lease 100 SP from @minnowbooster via https://www.minnowbooster.net for 4 weeks, and I'll have enough to do more in a few days. Evidently it takes 3 days to process or fill the leasing request, so it is still a long process, relatively speaking (when one is eager to get going with it). This is what I would recommend doing, along with powering up 100% on every post you make. These are the two most important things others have suggested to me. Keep at it. You have earned an impressive 50 reputation score already, so you are well along. Hope this helps you out. Cheers!
Great insight, thank you.
I've got about 1,100 SP, but it hasn't help much. When I first went over 1,000 SP, my power jumped to over $1.20, but then I think the system changed and I fell way down. :(
I'm staying at it and following you. Thanks for your help.
Thanks for the follow, @bigsilver! Here's a great tool from steemnow.com to calculate how much SP is needed for the upvoting.

Thanks for this.
Very interesting - I just did the calculation. I guess I need to get a lot more SP... :) Now i need to decide if it makes sense to buy more. The problem of course is the illiquidity of Steemit. I understand why, but at some point they must make Steemit more liquid.
Right, @bigsilver! It seems like a person needs at least 10,000 SP to even be a tiny player in the game. I'm just taking everything I get from curation and writing, and putting it into Steem, and using that to pay for the leased SP. Nothing out of pocket that way. I'm committed to growing my entire Steemit asset collection organically from the platform no matter how long it takes.
Yes, I'm doing the same.
What do you mean "using that to pay for the leased SP" - I haven't heard about that?
Thanks.
