minnowsupport is one of the bigger projects aimed to help new accounts find their way on this platform and give some initial upvotes. They have a website with a lot of info on the project (minnowsupportproject.org). As someone who does not have that much knowledge about things like Discord, it is all very intimidating and rather complicated at first sight which is the reason I have never really looked deeper into it all. I now took my first steps to better understand this project and found out that getting an upvote is actually really easy and can be done in a matter of minutes !

Easy Steps To Get Upvoted

1 Go to https://discord.gg/HYj4yvw
2 Make a discord account.
3 Click on the #registration Channel
4 Enter $register yoursteemitusername
5 Follow the intruction (send 0.001SBD to confirm registration)
6 Click on the #upvote Channel
7 Enter $upvote posturl (posturl is post you want upvoted)
8 Done !

Once you completed the steps above, you will instantly get a 0.07$ upvote! The available upvote will refresh every 48 hours. I have yet to dig a lot deeper into this great project and will see what I can contribute to support it. Initiatives like this are exactly what Steemit needs in times when profit driven bid bots rule the platform. I already gave some of my Witness votes to @ausbitbank, @aggroed, @teamsteem, @pharesim and would suggest everyone to have a look into it and make their votes over at the Witness Voting page on Steemit !
