RE: Lets make #introduceyourself great again! We all will benefit!

in #steemit7 years ago

Great post! I just started on Steemit and you are right, that the community should encourage and support new members. A growing platform is beneficial for everyone. Could you tell me how one can lease steempower? Greetings, Leon!

Hey Leon!
Actually there are many ways, you pretty much just need to find somebody who wants to delegate to you.
@blocktrades and @minnowbooster are the most popular ones who lend SP for money!
But there are also whales supporting minnows by delegating to them - But that's rather lucky to achieve.
Or you make a personal deal with a whale!
Hope this helped you ;)

I read the FAQs for acquiring reputation / SP but how long does it take to actually reflect on your account? I've made 2 posts, made some comments on other posts, upvoted and have been upvoted but sitting at the default reputation.

It takes a little while for the votes to add up @falconspy. You can get a better handle on your Rep score by looking at yourself in steemd ( https://steemd.com/@falconspy ), there you can see who responds to you and who votes for you and you will eventually see Reputation 25.1. Look for articles you are interested in, read them, upvote them, and leave a comment.

When first starting out try to vote on 10-15 articles or comments a day. Try to make a post once a day or every other day. And most important, if someone leaves you a real comment on a post you made, definately give them an upvote. It will pay dividends in the long run. By day 3 if you have been posting, commenting and voting, you should see your reputation climb. It does take time. I have been here almost 4 months and am only up to 54, some people that joined around the same time are in the 60's.

@bashadow - I appreciate the information and link!

I made my introduction post as my first one but I am wondering if I did it "wrong" seeing as others had a number of welcome comments or upvotes.

Nah u good fam

Thanks for your reply. But doesnt it make more sense to buy steem, steempower with that money instead of goving it to someone for a defined period of time?
