UPDATED Steemit FAQ - Section: "Voting"

Question @eric-boucher
Your above reply above has 2 votes currently, yet it is recorded at $0.00.

I have noticed this on my blog as well. I have posts that have 6 votes, yet my actual post is worth $0.00 for the past few weeks. Can you or someone clarify? I am very new here.

Thanks :)

Very good question! The more Steem Power someone has, the more this person can leverage the total amount of Steem in the pool to reward YOU or themselves for this matter, for the work or interactions you have with this person. Thus, if a lot of people without much Steem Power vote for you, you might seemingly have nothing at all, only fractions of a Steem Dollar. Yet, if a person with lots of Steem Power votes for you at a high percentage of their power, you may end up with over $13.00 for one vote! I hope this helps you understand some more the intricacies of our platform?!.

Namaste :)

Thanks for the quick response. Yes it helps, somewhat so. Steemit is not so easy to understand. Thanks again for all your help.
