How Do You Grow Your Account? (Bounty Post)

aezakmi (58) in steem-bounty • 5 years ago

The Road Less Traveled

As a Steemit blogger, I find it quite difficult to grow my account without putting money in from external sources. Especially in the crypto - space, where the 'audience' is pretty scare. And I'm sure I'm not the only one who's taking the road less traveled by.

What are the best ways to grow on Steemit?

The only options I'm more familiar with are delegations and auto voting services. Of course, there are plenty more ...

1. Delegations

I'm currently using this option (well, not at the moment because my SP is on its way back, before I can send a bigger amount back again). I've delegated my Steem Power to @tipu, which for a long period of time had the highest APR. It is now ranked on the second place with ~18.34%, very close to the first place actually.

2. Auto Voting

Vote Club

I'm also using at the moment @knircky's vote exchange club, where my left-over voting power is used to upvote other members' content and vice versa. It's basically a very cool service helping to get as much as possible out of my account, whenever there's voting power left after I'm manually upvoting the people I follow.

Steemvoter

I'm also using Steemvoter, another cool service where you can manually add the accounts you want to upvote and set your voting power and the delay. For me it currently has to be 100%, because I have less than 500 Steem power. Of course, it took a while until I found a balance, so that I can use both auto voting services and also have voting power left for myself.

Other

Of course, there are also other options - like bid bots or the SBI shares for example, which unfortunately I'm not quite familiar with. Maybe I'll start researching to see what's going on with them.

Bounty

How do you manage your account? What's the best way for you to keep you account growing? Do you have any suggestions for the Steeminas that also are in my position?
Thank you!

This is my second bounty. I know it's quite insignificant, but I hope it'll bring some interaction regarding the subject.

Lol this is great post I do all these things and also use a few things in steem like @Partiko and @esteem for instant phone notifications and points, https://steemworld.org/@steemingmark for people's information and steemd occasionally, @steem-bounty for bounties lol, https://steemyy.com/sp-delegate-form/ for delegating over the recommended amount or https://steembottracker.com/delegation.html to delegate with recommended amount, @actifit to get steem for steps and power up steem, @drugwars occasionally to try and earn steem by selling future tokens, @busy occasionally, @smartsteem and @minnowbooster to sell votes at 100%, @steemdunk and @steemvoter for auto curation, I delegate to @tipu, I use https://www.steemprofit.info/, occasionally use @upvotebank for x10 vote bank by sharing votes there is probably more I have used in the past but can't remember like when searching for stats etc.

there is 2% staking steem yearly intrest rate you have forgotten it.
upvoted your post and resteemed it

aezakmi (58) · 5 years ago

Thank you.
The steem yearly interest applies to the Steem Power balance, right?

$0.00

red-rose (60) · 5 years ago (edited)

yes true
it is a value derived from the steem power only
for example - you have 1000 teem power
at the moment of discussion the yearly intrest rate is 1.995%
then you will get 19.95 steem power yearly, but wait, it is added up on each second, so to make it easy you should calculate it daily for simple understandings
19.95 / 365 days = 0.05 steem power will be added into your steem power daily
and it is accumulating and compounding daily too

I do the same thing, have a couple SBI shares tho.

wakeupkitty (76) · 5 years ago

My account grows because I am joining contests and comment a lot 30-50 comments at least.
I also post a lot.
I use steem-bounty, dpill, appics and palnet to do so.
I also use dust sweeper.
Delegating I did but I doubt it brought me anything and if you are low on SP I doubt it brings anything.
I also used steembasicincome to help about 15 people but am not sure if that brought me anything.
Instead of 50/50 I use 100 power up now.

Hello, I do not understand why it is quite difficult to grow your account without entering money from external sources? I really believe that if your content is original and contributes to the community, it will not be difficult for you to grow step by step with good posts and quality comments, it will not be fast if you are going to achieve it.

aezakmi (58) · 5 years ago

Thanks for the reply!

It's quite difficult to grow it, because I'm writing mostly about cryptocurrency and technical analysis. And there are not too many readers interested about crypto technicals, therefore not too much interaction on my page.

Hi there, thanks for writing about @tipu :) As for the APR - actually it depends on the moment of checking, sometimes @tipu is #1. With longer time window of delegation (30+ days) it should stabilize. Also HF21 is coming which will be fun for voting services...

Also, @tipu send 10 tokens :)

$0.00

aezakmi (58) · 5 years ago

Thanks a lot for the support, @cardboard! It means a lot!

I know, @tipu used to be #1 for a long period of time.. I remember it from the "profitability check" posts. By the way, why did you stop with these posts? TipU needs more advertising, especially with the new token implementation.

Carry on with the exceptional work you're doing!

cardboard (61) · 5 years ago

Previously the profit was checked for @lavater account. Lately I've changed it to @profitcheck and delegated to many different bots. Sadly this means that the days delegated is less than 30 which for many services (including @tipu) which means that the results are not quite representative. Will need like 2 weeks more :)

Also I try to include the check profit section in the investors report, not make an entirely new post about as it might be seen as spam ;)

aezakmi (58) · 5 years ago

I understand. It's indeed more clever to include it in the investor post.

Buy a little, blog a lot, make a lot of comments... it's a slow grind.

Steem can be earned, but it isn't easy. It's about supply and demand. There are many people who can write a bit, and there are only so many Steem to go around.

It's hard, and it's supposed to be hard.

$0.00

aezakmi (58) · 5 years ago

It's hard indeed... and I sort of like it this way. This 'competition' encourages the bloggers to write good & qualitative content. This way, there's no room for spammers and other sorts of people.

I use dapps like Actifit and steem monsters to earn a little extra, I blog daily, I participate in things like the engagement league and the minnow league that rewards users growing their accounts.

I grab some crypto from faucets to power up my account, I buy crypto, I trade. I check out bounties, I sell my vote.

I basically just hang around here daily, if you do it long enough you'll make some cash in return

For auto voters I have been using minnowbooster. Very similar to steem voter. The steem-bounty to me is the most rewarding as I rarely get a big upvote on my own content but get good returns from comments via steembounty. Thanks!

aezakmi (58) · 5 years ago

I'm in a similar situation, no major activity on my blog either. I'll also start using the steem-bounty service more often, because I'm very satisfied with interaction that it generates.

I sadly don't have enough SP to do any of the first two options.

I found that @dustsweeper is a good way to get some money for accounts like me who don't have enough SP to give themself a sufficient upvote.

You've just joined the platform, don't worry you'll get SP in time. I started delegating since I had around 30 SP... so you figure it out :)

I play games like Drug Wars and Steem Monsters. Drug Wars once paid rewards directly in terms of steem. They have changed it since then though.
I would like to know about knircky's vote exchange service too

$0.00

aezakmi (58) · 5 years ago

I'm also into Drugwars.. but since the future token implementation, it's not worth the time anymore for me.
Here's the link to the vote club: https://steem-bounty.com/services/vote-club
Sign in via Steemconnect. All you have to do afterwards is to set your voting power that you want to keep for yourself. (for example if you put 50%, the vote club service will never go lower once you reach 50% voting power). And.. that's it! The service will take care of the rest.

I hope you are aware that Drug Wars is launching its own steem engine token.

aezakmi (58) · 5 years ago

I'm not quite sure of the returns, cause I don't have too much Steem Power, therefore my vote value is very low.
I'm not aware of any Drugwars Token, besides the Future token that already exists.
