Appreciate your services @minnowbuilder 😊 I would love to see my growth weekly like paulag does in her redfish power up league. I need to post more and engage more to keep my frequent powering up even only for 0.2 or 0.5 sp every week. Do you have any suggest, how to optimized my curation rewards
Until you have a large vote there is little reason to worry much about curation rewards. If they are important to you setting accounts like my personal account which don't post that often but have larger rewards when they do on autovote will help. Set the vote to 13 minutes as SBI votes at 14 minutes and is large on my account.
Problem is the second a larger vote like SBI comes along you aren't really making anything on curation. IMO you are much better off using your votes to engage with others and make sure you don't miss votes for people you really care to support (autovote them).
If you aren't autovoting SBI you need to. If you upvote their posts at 100% power and on all their posts you get a 100% bonus to your vote value. So if you have 10 shares and the vote is X they will double it to vote value of 2x.
Naturally other accounts that support you are ones you want to help grow. Like @pifc as an example. You get 2 votes each week from that account when you enter. So every little bot of growth they have adds to how much you get in the vote. Naturally @minnowbuilder too, that vote is growing nicely each week and everyone involved is gaining a lot from it vs self voting.
To me that is far more important then worrying about .001 fractions of curation rewards.
13 minutes rather than 30 minutes 😊 I don't use steemauto or other autovote, I do a little check on other account who does the same😊 he got nothing too due to his low SP😊 well.. I was told how to use my SP, I got that 0.01 fraction in 50% and manually then interaction is better than auto upvote.
All this time I upvoted steembasic income posts manually too, not all but at least 4-5 posts a month. I use my upvote value to help others to meet the threshold value sometimes😊 I'd like to use my upvote to many different users too. Thank you for your suggestion and I'll try my best to apply it.
https://steemdunk.xyz/ is the best autovoter I have used for just following a few accounts and giving a vote. It's up time is WAY better then steemauto which is sad as steemauto has many more features co if it was online more often it would be the best.
You have enough shares and low enough vote value that 100% auto vote for SBI would really help you. It's investing a few votes a week instead of a lot of steem. Simple math it makes sense.
While I love people and their mindset of help others you do need to put your oxygen mask on first...that is you can't help others if you are alive to do so. Now you aren't going to die by not maximizing things like your SBI vote, but you are loosing out on rewards which then give you more power to help others in a more meaningful way down the road. Hope that makes sense.
As for vote timing, that all changed with HF20. 15 minutes is now the 100% curation point, not 30. So you no longer need to wait 30 minutes and now if you have autovotes you want to be at or around the 15 minute mark to maximize your curation.
Will check it out on steemdunk.. somehow I need to put an autovote for my favourite's author anyway 😉 because I can't be online anytime and will wait till my mana has recharged.. I've been so seriously draining my mana after the hf20 and before the delegation sp end😊 but I think they'll keep me having it till I passed the plankton 1 or even when I do reach my minnow status.
Everything you said is make sense to me😊 I need to change my strategy if I want to grow steadily and faster than I am now. Since... I don't have a basic loyal upvoters except the eSteem team 😊 and those who I invested my steem on and friends who I know and I support through @pifc too.
You have enough mana you shouldn't be having to many issue. With an auto vote for people you would be voting on no matter what it might help a little as the vote would be cast even when you aren't online. So then if your power was sitting at 100% and the vote casts it can recharge before you even get back online. Then you can look at who you voted for on steemworld when you come back online and visit those posts to see if you should be commenting.
You will find the right balance for what works for you and that is important. But everyone needs to make some adjustments after HF20, to much changed to think you can operate the same as before.
Aye aye captain 👐 I keep thinking about @wolfhart lately 😢 I was always discuss things like this with him and he has a straight view after he try everything himself or based on his experience.
