It took me some time to fully understand the whole dynamics of Steemit curation. Its a little complicated for beginners & minnows. So i decided to share it with my fellow Steemians.

  1. Every post's payout is divided in fix share ratio of 75% and 25% while 25% goes to curators (upvoters).
  2. Upvoting your own posts and comments is generally considered not good but even if you do that timing does not matter in this case. You can chose to upvote yourself close to post creation time or payout time, your reward will remain the same.
  3. When you upvote other's post - timing is very crucial specially first 30 minutes. If you upvote after 30 minutes then curator gets more reward but if you get closer to post creation time then author will get more reward share.
  4. Voting power always plays great role in curation. You can decide to control your voting percentage for every upvote but you get to chose that only when you have 500SP. So thing is if you are at 100% of your voting power and suppose your vote's worth is 1$ and you decide to upvote with only 50% vote strength then your curation will contribute only 0.50$. Similarly, if your voting power is currently at 50% and you decide to upvote with vote strength of 50% then your contribution would be 0.25$.

You can check vote power & vote strength by Steemit tools which i shared in one of my previous post.

I hope this helps you in better curation in future.
