The upvote value given by SBI is determined by the amount of rshares in your SBI balance. There are multiple ways to get bigger upvotes from SBI on your posts:
Earn more SBI shares. The more SBI shares you have the faster your rshares balance accumulate. More rshares means bigger upvotes!
Post less frequently. Even when you are not posting your SBI rshares balance is still constantly accumulating. This will result on bigger upvote value on your next post.
Upvoting @steembasicincome posts. When you upvote @steembasicincome posts you get rshares added to your SBI balance according to the upvote weight multiplied by 1.34. This is even better than upvoting yourself!
Delegating SP to @steembasicincome. You get temporary "bonus shares" when you delegate to @steembasicincome. These bonus shares give equal benefit compared to regular SBI shares. Currently, you get 1 bonus share for each 2 Steem Power delegation to @steembasicincome.
To receive larger votes on your posts there are a few options which are free and one which requires investment of steem.
Sponsoring @steembasicincome shares for other people will give you a share per share you purchase for others. Each share increases the speed of your vote increasing. Please see Category 1 for details about sponsoring SBI shares.
Free Ways to Increase Your Vote:
In Category 10 (link to it) we talk about increasing your vote by upvoting any of the @steembasicincome accounts. Please review this information.
In Category 11 (link to it) we talk about increasing your vote by Delegating Steem Power (SP) to @steembasicincome. Please review this information.
Each week we publish a list of known contests which give SBI Shares as a prize. Winning more shares will increase the rate your vote balance increases.
Don't forget that your vote is based on 20% of your total vote bank and then that amount is removed from the bank. So a few back to back posts can quickly drain your account which will lower your vote value or on the flip side if you take a few days off your vote bank will grow larger and your next votes will be larger. This has nothing to do with the value of each SBI share, but entirely on how you choose to use your vote bank.
Great answer with redirection to other FAQ question. It's a little bit too overwhelming in my opinion and I don't think other FAQ question inform the user that "your vote is based on 20% of your total vote bank and then that amount is removed from the bank.". That's not common knowledge.
I score this as 5. Best way is to provide a summarized response to the answer. Also, the explanation related to "vote bank" it not clear and gives room to more questions.
[Edited response] A real simple one! (Rehashes points all throughout, get ready)
The simplest way: Sponsor more people, get more SBI Shares and the upvotes get bigger. That and those people will be very thankful (and may upvote on your posts, even bigger upvotes!). Regardless, with each SBI Share means a bigger percentage of the SBI upvote power pie. So, more you help @steembasicincome, the more they help you back.
Second way: Win more contests, get more SBI Shares, you know the programme.
Third way: Delegate SP to @steembasicincome and receive bonus SBI Shares! (Bonuses are like the actual one, they just only get affected by special circumstances other than sponsorship or increasing the total number of SBI Shares of another person.)
Fourth way: Consider upvoting (and regularly) @steembasicincome posts! From @scrawly in responding to Category 10: "Yes, everytime @steembasicincome 's post gets upvoted, the member who did it will get value added to their balance with a 1.34x multiplier of their upvote value." [The Overview post, as to cite @sbi-booster: “Complete Overview contains outdated information.” So the Overview post link has been edited out. That reason and the reason being that the upvote bonus now works completely different from the original model. So thanks to @sbi-booster for pointing this error out.]
I rate this 6. Detailed, covers all the main ways to boost your SBI units and upvotes. Lost point for the "you know the program" considering the FAQ section is aimed at members or potential members that are not familiar with the program.
I give you a 5 this time. You're not exactly on points with your answers and obviously, we wouldn't want to have those quotation of another user and sbi booster on the FAQ page.
To get bigger upvotes, send more STEEMs to @steembasicincome to increase your share. You can also delegate to @steembasicincome. In the past, you will receive 1 bonus share for every 10 SP delegation. As @steembasicincome continues to grow, they also increased the bonus share to 5 shares for every 10 SP delegation.
Close. We have improved the delegation reward from 1 bonus unit per 10 SP to 1 bonus unit per 2 SP delegated (so 10 will you give you 5 bonus units instead of only 1.)
You are welcome to edit your submission and I will review again (or you can resubmit if your edit is substantial.)
Edit: Accurate now. Response accepted as a qualifying submission.
Don't forget you can also earn points by scoring the clarity and helpfulness of other qualifying responses.
Okay, I have updated my initial response. I am just curious, is there a specific timeframe for the delegation? And will the SBI shares be revoke when the delegation is stopped?
I haven't find a topic similar to this in the FAQ so maybe it can be an additional entry.
When you initiate a delegation on Steem, it is perpetual until you change it to 0. Bonus units are calculated at the time of delegation, and then left alone unless the delegation changes, at which point they are recalculated. If the delegation is set to 0, the bonus units would also be set to 0.
Send more Steem along with username(s) of the person(s) you intern to sponsor. A trick will be to look for someone to exchange sponsorship. That is someone you will sponsor and he/she in turn sponsor's you back. It will be a win win situation for you and your friend.
Delagate much Steem Power to @steembasicincome. For every 2SP delegated, you get one unit.
Upvote posts made by @steembasicincome. For every post that you upvote, your upvote value is multiplied by 1.34 and added to your potential upvote balance. You can simply add @steembasicincome to your fanbase on steemauto.com to make it easier.
Participate is contests that give sbi units as a prize or prizes. This way you will increase your sbi units and hence upvote value.

Rating 4 - technically, so long as the user is not spamming or plagarising or blacklisted for whatever reason, SBI doesn't really take in to account "quality of content"
The main way to do this is to get more SBI shares. You can sponsor more people. Or you can enter contest or host contest as a good way to grow your shares. If you post every day and change to voting every other day this also should increase your vote as it is giving out with a weekly share. Only do that if you are forcing yourself to post when you don't want to. SBI doesn't require daily post to earn your full share.
If you post every day and change to voting every other day
Did you mean 'change to posting every other day'? A change to voting every other day would decrease your upvote, because you would be getting less upvoting multiplier reward.
it is giving out with a weekly share
It's weird that this is wrong but also sort of correct. We don't calculate anything on a weekly basis anymore... rshares accrue to member vote balances every 2.4 hours. But looking at your upvote value from a longer time-frame (like a week, a month, a quarter) still seems to be the best way to help members realize that over time their total upvote values received are independent of their posting frequency, while their upvote per post is extremely dependent on their posting frequency (and may look quite volatile if their intervals between posts are irregular).
SBI doesn't require daily post to earn your full share.
100% accurate, and the key underlying reason for why our system is so complicated. We do not believe that forcing a daily post to achieve ROI is the right way to encourage quality content, and tracking everything using rshares balances has proven to be the only consistently accurate way of upvote delivery that allows for a consistent STEEM APR over time, independent of posting frequency.
You are welcome to edit your submission and I will review again (or you can resubmit if your edit is substantial.)
I will redo that one I must have been sleepy that one part an error.
There are a few ways to increase the vote you get.
Get more SBI Units you can buy them or try to win them in a contest.
Host a contest to help pay for your share. Look into the current contests for ideas.
Upvote any @steembasicincome or @sbi2, @sbi3, ect post to earn a bonus on your votes. Using steem auto to set up auto voting makes this easy to do.
Post less often SBI doesn't require a daily post to earn your full share so don't force yourself to put out silly content and you will get bigger votes on your good content.
Get some bonus units by delegating steem power to @steembasicincome. You get 1 for every 2 sp.
I give this a 5 rating. No offense due a big difference in your two responses, I will like to give credit to other responses for helping you out. Otherwise, it's a 6.

Rating 4 - a bit confusing, a clearer edited version stating 1 bonus unit for every 2 SP delegated would improve the answer in my opinion.
Befriend a whale! Power up and self vote!
... But seriously... For SBI, More shares means larger votes. Also the more often you post the more your votes are diluted by averaging.
Apart from that, engage other people... If you are interested in their work, they might get interested in yours!

Informal, not suitable for FAQ. Powering up and engaging with people doesn't directly increase SBI vote vallue. Self-upvote?!
