What does Witness Voting mean?
Witness Voting means nothing more than that YOU have some power over which user contributes most.
What are Witnesses?
Witnesses are members of Steem running nodes to confirm post entries into the Steem Blockchain. The system wouldn't work without them. You can vote for 30 witnesses (check their witness posts). The witnesses with the most votes get the most rewards.
Where can I find Witness Voting?
You've probably already figured out that there is a menu on the right of your screen, which hides many options including the #Steemit Start Guide, FAQ, Steemit Chat. Next to these options, you'll notice that there is a link to Witness Voting.
Direct link to Witness Voting: https://steemit.com/~witnesses

How come everyday I log into Steemit, my 30 allowable votes are all erased? I spend so much time pouring through my options. Yet the next day if i select "witness voting" I notice all 30 of my votes are available again!! Ah!!! I can't do this everyday ffs....;) Your guidance would be much appreciated, thank you for your post!

I know, I also just discovered it but I think the guys who put so much effort in should get something back. That's why I immediately made this post to inform everyone who didn't know about it yet -like you and me - so we can keep supporting them to do great things. Keep it up guys!

Checkout Streemian, they provide these services. Its actually called 'Curation trail'. You have to register there, send some money (0.001 SBD) and give them access to your steem account (posting)
See Steem Docs for more projects..

Signing up seems a bit .. shady. There's 2 methods:
Probably nothing shady, but I will never give my active key to any developer platform other than Steemit itself.

Thanks for the information. Clear and simple. A Steemit user I came across asked to witness vote. So I was wondering what that was about. I liked his content, so I'm gonna do that now. Thanks again and have a great day!
