Steemit Upvotes | Increasing Post Earnings Basics ✅

When thinking about ways to get more upvotes and increasing your average post payouts, a reasoning that often is made is that higher post quality should result in an increased post payout. While this certainly won't hurt, if often does not make that much of a difference. Steemit is a Social Media Platform and a lot of the value comes from social interactions.

There are some accounts on my follow list that post consistent content with effort put into it, but are getting nearly no upvotes whatsoever. ( @crickettipster | @underdogchance | @footballline)

• Voting Power is at 100%
  Using the voting power you have, even if it's not worth much, really makes a big difference as it is a form of social interaction on itself. Many active members on Steemit actually check the upvotes they get and will take the time to check a blog out if they notice getting multiple upvotes from it. This itself increases your own exposure and should lead to an increased amount of followers and more upvotes over time. Upvoting should always be done in a selective way, making more that 10 full upvotes each day will drain your voting power faster than it can recover.
• Few to No Comments Outside their Own Posts
  Posting Genuine Comments and Making Friends on Steemit can be very powerful and really help increase your own post earnings over time. Your comments should regularly get upvoted not only by the original poster, but also by others who are into the conversation or when lucky you can get an upvote from one of the comment upvote bots like @gentlebot. All those payouts can be used to increase your post earnings by using the inevitable Upvote Bots.
