    See the comments below: it is a measure of reputation based on votes your posts receive. You start in the 20s (they rescaled it since this post). If you receive upvotes from higher rep users it increases your score. Down votes decrease it. Spammers with lots of downvotes and negative rep have posts hidden by default.

    In other news, I have now been on Steemit for a year. This was me learning the system. There's lots to learn, but people are generally quite helpful.

              Thank you for the explanation. I have some work to do to increase my reputation. Maybe creating value will help in the long run.

                  You have to be missed if you don't show up.

                  I kept posting original content at least once a day, sometimes more, commenting, upvoting posts by authors whose interests are similar to mine, participating in contests, organizing contests myself, making friendships this way. It is a very organic process.

                  By the way, now the number is changing much slower than before. However, it's better to focus on creating value today than on numbers.

                  Keep posting something no one but you can, or in other words, be yourself and become a helpful member of the community that interests you. Then little by little you will be missed if you don't show up.

                  "First, they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win" (M. Gandhi).
