Prerequisites To Use Charity Rebot

If you would like to get resteems from the community for your new blog post while donating for this accounts featured charity campaigns, first of all you have to fulfill the following prerequisites:

• Steem account with login credentials
• A blog post you would like to get featured and resteemed
• Minimum of 0.100 SBD in your wallet

STEP 1: Steem account with login credentials

First of all, you have to login with your credentials of your steem account on https://steemit.com and click 'Login' in the menu bar. If you already logged in with your account you can skip this step.

STEP 2: A blog post you would like to resteem

You have to write your blog post if it not already exists and waits for new resteems. It's also possible, that you order resteems for posts that are authored by a different steem account than yours. The age of the post doesn't matter - it can range from brand-new to old as dirt. The only requirement is the post format:

• Author and post format:
  @username/this-is-the-the-post

or

• Full browser url:
  https://steemit.com/category/@username/this-is-the-the-post

Both formats are valid to use with the Charity Rebot service. You should not change anything in the URL otherwise it will not got processed successfully. Navigate to your post, and copy the browser's URL by pressing STRG+C (Microsoft Windows) or CMD+C (Apple Mac OSX) on your keyboard, so the URL will get copied to your computer's clipboard:

STEP 3: Choose your desired amount you would like to invest and donate

Before starting a new order, you should ask yourself how much you would like to invest (the more you will invest, the more will get donated) for your new order. Orders for the resteem service are payed exclusively in Steem Dollar (SBD). Steem or Steem Power is not accepted and orders will be simply ignored. The amount has to be in the range of 0.100 SBD to 10.000 SBD.

The more you will pay for your order, the more likely high reputation users with a high amount of followers will be asked to resteem your posts. Also, higher order amounts results in higher offers to community members to resteem your post and the more will be donated to the current charity project.

To determine the right amount for your order, check the following graph which visualizes what you would have to invest for the order to receive your desired results:

The following table contains some raw data of the graph. Keep in mind, these followers or reputation levels are not guaranteed, they are aimed for by placing a resteem order as offers to three steem community members according the orders amount and member follower count + reputation values:

Steem Dollard SBD	Followers	Reputation
0,100	20	25
0,200	40	33
0,300	61	38
0,400	81	41
0,500	101	44
0,600	121	46
0,700	141	48
0,800	161	49
0,900	181	51
1,000	200	52
1,500	295	57
2,000	384	60
2,500	467	63
3,000	544	65
3,500	614	67
4,000	677	68
4,500	735	70
5,000	786	71
6,000	869	73
7,000	930	75
8,000	971	76
9,000	995	78
10,000	1002	79

Note: When there are no appropriate users found with the aimed number of follwers or reputation, the algorithm will try to increase variance on those until he found the right ones.

STEP 4: Transfer to Hive account@rebot wallet to place your order

To place your resteem order, all you have to do is to transfer the determined amount of Steem Dollar (SBD) to the wallet of Hive account@rebot with the post from STEP 1 as memo. First you have to initiate a Steem Dollar transfer from your wallet:

In the transfer window, ensure and double check that you have selected the correct destination wallet (Hive account@rebot), the correct currency (SBD) in range between 0.100 and 10.000 SBD and the correct post in the memo field (simply paste it from clipboard with STRG+V). To place your order click on the button 'Submit'.
