HI ALL STEEMIANS.
Well 7 months in and 219 posts and I’m still struggling to understand how steemit works!
I Hardly earn anything from my blogs and have always upvoted myself, although some people disagree with self upvoting! I do not say that this is right or wrong, you are free to do what you decide is best for you. 
However I discovered today with upvote calculator https://steemnow.com/upvotecalc.html That upvoting myself actually earns me zilch,nothing! Is it because of the amount of steem power I have?
But tell me how do some steemians that have only joined weeks ago have a higher reputation than me and have good amounts of earnings, yet have not posted one blog, and have only resteemed other blogs ( how does that work? ). Should I stop blogging and just resteem as many people as I can.
I Looked on steem supply today my Current voting power: 100.00% My Current vote worth is nothing : $0.00 so can anyone tell me is it worth upvoting anyone, if my vote is worth nothing to them and me, Is it actually worth me upvoting on anyone’s blog that I like if this is the case? Am I waisting my time bothering to upvote?
I love steemit and think it certainly is the future for social media.
The fantastic thing though is that through steemit I have actually managed to buy some crypto currency which is amazing considering that you start from nothing !
Don’t get me wrong I love steemit and will carry on posting and encouraging like minded people to join in, and help push the steemit community to new heights.
I'm new here too! :)
Btw, check my last post, It's a steam game for free :)
Have a great weekend.

May I suggest Discord? It's a great way to meet people. Takes some getting used to, but it's a really strong Steem community.
If your vote is worth less than a penny, I would suggest only upvoting others. At least then they will notice your upvote and maybe give you some love as well. Plus, you can upvote as many times as you want. It's not like it's going to get any smaller, eh?
You can do it! :D
