As already started for 2 weeks, we continue today with our series on how Steemit can be improved. Today I will focus on the quality of the presentation of the posts and how it can be done.
On Steemit, Markdown is used, which is a bit different from a plain text editor. I will now list a few tips on how to use it:
- If you want to italic write then directly from the word you should insert *. If you want to close that, insert the * character immediately after the last word.
- When you want to write in bold, you should bring two * characters, like this **. The same procedure as above.
- If you want to write both in italic and bold use 3 times the *, like this ***, don't forget to close it.
- You saw that I used the bullet points •. This can be done by using a + or * character at the beginning of the line followed by a pause.
- if you want to split up the post in different chapters, you can leave a line free then bring in the second line three minus signs (---) and then again a line free. It will look like this (a thin line):
If you want to quote somebody then bring in a > at the beginning of the line, then you are clean, but always give the source from where you quoted.
Headers
You can do the header by inserting a # at the beginning of the line and then pressing the space bar. Here is important that you leave a sign free between # and the text.
You should always insert a picture, it makes the post more attractive and it looks better on the Steemit "wall". You should always center the pictures. This is done by inserting the code of the pictures between
So you do not insert large links, you should bring these in as follows. A [text] in [] brackets and then the link (https://steemit.com/) in round () brackets. No space between the two series of brackets. As here zBsp: Steemit.
I hope this little guide will help you a little bit further.
wie schon seit 2 Wochen gestartet, gehen wir heute weiter mit unserer Serie wie man Steemit verbessern kann. Heute werde ich den Fokus legen auf die Qualität der Darstellung der Beiträge und wie man das machen kann.
Auf Steemit wird Markdown benutzt, was ein bisschen verschieden ist von einem normalen Texteditor ist. Ich werde jetzt ein paar Tipps auflisten wie man es nutzen kann:
- Wenn ihr kursiv (italic) schreiben möchtet dann direkt von dem Wort sollt ihr * einfügen. Wenn ihr das schließen möchtet, dann direkt nach dem letzten Wort das * Zeichen einfügen.
- Beim fett (bold) schrieben solltet ihr zwei * Zeichen einbringen, also **. Das selbe Procedere wie oben.
- Wenn ihr kursiv und fett schreiben möchtet sind es * Zeichen, also *** mit dem ihr das öffnet und schließt.
- Ihr habt gesehen das ich die Bullet Punkte • benutzt habe. Das kann man machen indem man am Anfang der Linie eine + oder * Zeichen verwendet gefolgt von eine Pause.
- wenn ihr den Beitrag aufspalten möchtet ihn verschiedene Kapitel, könnt ihr eine Linie Pause lassen dann drei Minus Zeichen ( --- ) einbringen und danach wieder eine Linie frei. Es wird wie folgt aussehen(eine dünne Linie):
Wenn ihr jemanden zitieren möchtet dann ein > am Anfang der Linie einbringen, dann seit ihr auch sauber aber gibt immer die Quelle an woher ihr zitiert.
Kopfzeilen
Die Kopfzeile könnt ihr machen indem ihr am Anfang der Zeile ein # einfügt und danach die Leertaste drückt. Hier ist wichtig das ihr ein Zeichen frei lässt zwischen # und dem Text.
Ihr sollt immer ein Bild einfügen, es macht den Beitrag attraktiver und es erscheint besser auf der Steemit "Mauer". Ihr sollt immer die Bilder zentrieren. Das macht man in dem man die Kode der Bilder zwischen
Damit ihr keine große Links einfügt, sollt ihr diese wie folgt einbringen. Ein [Text] in []Klammern und danach den Link (https://steemit.com/) in Runde ()Klammern. Wie hier zBsp: Steemit.
Ich hoffe diese kleine Anleitung hilft euch ein bisschen weiter.

Does the Steemit version of Markdown do the standard method of inserting images?
For example: ![alt text here](path to image here)
If so, what would the path look like? A URL on the web, somewhere?

Hi @alexvan! Thank you for your tutorials. I find them very helpful and clear.
I am new to steem (and completely off topic of the blockchain "thing").
I've joined steem with an objective to collect money for charity. Our group is following the account (@sgsposts) and upvoting the posts.
Being a very new into way it works here I do not understand why one person's upvote brings 3,5$ while the rest 20 upvotes generate only few extra cents. And at the end it doesn't matter if there were 70 voices or just 25 - the total generated value is very low. This discourages members of our group to continue.
Can you please give an explanation and advice on how to increase the cost/value of the voice?
That would be really priceless! And for the good cause ))
Would really appreciate your answer. Or recommendation where to find the answer.
Thank you in advance.

I found that, to italicize, you can also use underscore immediately before and after word(s) you want italicized.
Also, I accidentally found out another way to add thin lines to separate sections in your post. You can use *** (3 or more asterisks) in a line by itself and it'll create a section for the block to follow!
I looked up how to italicize words a while back but the thin line was discovered accidentally haha
