In steemit we learn everyday, when I join steemit newly I had a little knowledge on crypto currency, but I've been following cryptoacademy and @pennirf news report, and this has broaden my knowledge on crytocurrency.

Recently, I have discover things that will be of good use to others on this platform.

I noticed I normally redeem or claim 0.001SP everyday, I just discover where it normally comes from. At first I'm always worried where it came from so I asked my mentor, African representative @ngoenyi she told me its from comment.
Although she has been advising me to read and comment on peoples post. I never knew it pays to comment.

Anytime you make quality post, definitely you will be curated, don't give up on making quality post. I also discover that making quality post on steemit will not only make you earn but you will learn while making the post. You will explore your skills. I have done so many research, I have learned so many things on steemit. I want you to learn with me, get up let's steem to the moon and beyond.

When its comes to steem power, I have learnt so many thing about it. Steem power gives you influence on steemit, so accumulating more steem power will help you gain more citation rewards.
To gain more steempower, I have been powering up, setting some of my post on 100% power up, participated on contest.

So i try as much as possible to accumulate steem power.

So I discover a nice statistics tool that can enable me know my voting value it is called steemworld. To login type https://steemworld.org/@eliany  you can replace my user name to yours when you login, I go to stimulate SP, enter any SP amount and it automatically calculate the corresponding voting value.

The tool help me see that if my SP is not up to 500, my voting doesn't has any value, I have just 54 SP. So I now know why steemit is always said to be a business of steem power. If you build your Steempower, you will be able to earn from voting.

So with my discovery, I am determined to build up my steem power.

To help me meet my set goals on steemit I will do the following;

- join creation trail.

- power up most of my post or change my SBD and power up.

- Delegate to communities.

- Apply for 500 SP minnow support organized by @cryptokannon as I have just completed my achievement 4 task. I'm doing that this week.


From my 2 months journey on steemit I can assure you that steemit is a nice social media to be. And i think that my new discovery will be of help to you.
Thank you for going through my post.
