Hello,
Some days back, I made a post, talking about how somebody was complaining about lack of getting upvote from the community and suggesting to him aways of getting upvote from the community. If you want to read the post further, you can read it here
Just yesterday again I came across somebody who made a similar complain in a post about his lack of upvote from the community and because of this, I decided to write this post talking about another reason why some people might not be getting a lot of upvote on their post.
Another reason why I think some people don't get a lot of upvote on their post is because they do not support those who support them. There are some people particularly minnowers who I have been trying to support constantly with my upvote and they never try to support back and because of this, I withdrew my support for them.
So if you are among those minnowers complaining about lack of a lot of upvotes on your post and you are the type that don't like to support those who support you back, then the reason could be that you don't support those who support you and so they withdrew their support from you.
Some of us minnowers, are busy trying to get a whales attention and so we ignore our follow minnowers who are supporting us. This is not a very wise thing to do because a lot of people are struggling for a whale attention and so it might be difficult for you to get the whale's attention.
But am not saying that you should not try to get a whale support, but don't ignore your follow minnowers support. One minnowers upvote might not have value, but if you have many minnowers supporting you and you support them back, you are likely going to build a relationship with them and with time their votes will have higher value has their account grows.
The only time you can get an upvote without supporting anybody is if you are a member of a special community that gives you upvotes for been a member or you have a big account were you can just upvote yourself. Or you buy votes or you have connections with people with big accounts who can upvote your. Other than this, to get an upvote from the community, you need to support the community for the community to support you back.
Steemit is a social media site, so build relationships with people here.
Just My 0.02 cents thought for today on how to get a lot of upvotes.
