Introducing Acrobot - Created by Minnow for Minnows

When I discovered Steemit a few month ago I thought it was the most innovative idea I have ever heard. I told all my friends about it and encouraged them to engage in the community. Most of them jumped on the bandwagon right away and started creating contents. However, we had two major challenges.
First, there were a lot of things we did not yet understand about the platform. I read through the Welcome page over and over again, but still had no idea about concepts such as whales, downvoting, SP leasing, bots etc. Second, no matter what I did, I did not get any recognition for my posts.

As time went on, I began to learn a lot more about Steemit. I invested at least 5 hours each day to acquire Steemit related knowledge. In this time, most of my friends had lost their motivation and abandoned their accounts.
I imagined how many talented writers or aspiring content creators who may have lost their motivation as well. This cannot be good for the community. I decided to do something about it.

The concept of Acrobot was developed in response to this issue. Acrobot is made up of a team of people who provide support to new content creators. Our community is made up of the “little guys” who have gone a little further in the platform and are happy to assist those struggling to find their way.
We are a new community created by Minnows for Minnows. Our vision is to provide minnows with the much needed boost to ensure that their efforts are rewarded and their posts receive at least a payout. We provide support, advice and upvotes to well deserving Minnows.
