Since I joined, I earned more money commenting and healing than sending a story.

I just earn money on Steemit by writing. And so do many others. Just read what a more successful person has to say about your trip.

I have summarized all the required information:

For most beginners, the first months at Steemit can be frustrating. Much effort is put into writing, but the rewards are few or none. I'm in the same situation.

Do not give up. There are other opportunities that will require less effort and for a longer period of time lay the foundation for your future success as an author at Steemit.
In my case, I currently earn more money commenting than writing.

When I joined Steemit for the first time, I did not understand how the voting system really works.

75% of the total earnings of the publication is paid to the author. 50% in Steem Power (SP) that can not be withdrawn immediately but in 104 weekly installments and 50% of Steem Dollars (SBD), which can be transferred immediately.

You may wonder if you should click on each publication and the day after you have reached your residual income goal.
No, it is a limit of votes that you can make per day. This is measured with the power to vote.
