Do you want to get a few gifts for your parents,siblings or even disapprove people who didn't believe in you when you joined Steemit?
If you answered yes to any of the above now is the time to make some money when the prices of SBDs are still high!

You all know it is not easy to make money as minnow currently.It is hard to make a decent payout from making Steemit Posts like this one!
I am writing this post but very sure a few people will see it,nevertheless i will write, and even if two people can benefit from my simple advice i will be happy.
It is a profitable time now on Steemit as post rewards earn converting to insane Dollars(fiat).
You can read this post to understand the value of your posts or comments right now as i type this.

It is a bit hard to make money as minnow by simly posting at this moment in time!
1.Commenting on Whales' Posts
This is what i am concentrating on personally at the moment,let me explain below.
It is becoming hard to make money by writing a post like because you cannot compete with Whales who are now writing 3-4 posts a day(which almost all the time end on trending page!)
Since you cannot write a post for 2 hours and earn a meagre 0.06$,i advice you resort to commenting on the many posts this whales are making.
You want proof that i have earned more from commenting than posting? check out below pics
This is a comment
These Below are 2 Posts....total=0.24$
To read more about commenting check out this post i wrote yesterday

3. Comment on Posts and Particpate in Contests concurrently.
If you have realised this third point is a combination of point and point 2.
I just wanted to stress this easy methods i am currently using to earn some Steem.
You can earn money by only commenting or on participating in contests.
It is always good to diversify your income hahahaha(i am now acting like a money coach...!).
It is better if you comment and at the same time particiate in contests.
I am sure with this methods above,some minnow who will read this will put in action this simple techniques and may be earn at least 10 Steem(this can buy a present/gift in Uganda where i come from!).
