"HWC Contest #31 || POWERUP AND WIN WEEK 24 by @smartlouis

Welcome to my blog

Is good to see you guys here again today Am Louis by name and I love powering up alot because am aware of it's benefits. Powering up my steem in steemit has really gone a long way in helping me grow fast in steemit. I thank @jyoti-thelight for organizing this contest.

Steps in powering up

That process whereby we convert our liquid steem to steem power is known as Power up and am a big fan of this activity. Please check the steps below.

Step 1

First of all you login into your wallet by copying your posting key and copying it in the box provided. I had 35.653 steem and 645 steem power before I powered up.

This is to show that I will be powering up 35 steem today.

Step 2

After that you click that little arrow beside the number of your steem and then a short page will appear, indicating transfer, transfer to savings, power up, trade, and market.

Our intention here is to power up so we will just quickly tap the power up button.

Step 3

After doing so another page will appear and we will be able to fill in the amount of steem we want to power up.

Since I will be powering up 35 steem, I decided to fill 35 in the box provided and then tap on the power up button.

Step 4

Once you click the power up button, another page will appear, requesting for your active key.

The next thing to do is to go to your wallet and copy your active key then paste it inside the box provided. Then you click sign in and then the process gets complete.

My steem is now 0 and my steem power is now 681.

Importance of powering up

When we power up in steemit we are greatly helping ourselves the most and not others because we benefit alot when we power up, the following are the importance.

• It attracts other investors because they now believe most steemians aren't interested in powering down.

• It helps us to be in any suitable club status of our choice.

• It increases our influence in the platform.

• It gives us opportunities to apply for some particular roles in different communities once our steem power is up to the required steem power a steemian applying must have.

I invite @crowd1, @heriadi, @patjewell and @xkool24 to participate in this wonderful contest.
