The number 3 way I want to recommend to my followers in order to maximize steemit at this period of low value of Steem is to explore other websites and apps built on Steem blockchain and use them to post.
Websites and apps like busy.org, esteem, steepshot, dmania, dsound, dlive, dtube and many others like that. Using them will also help to get some cool upvotes as many of them give upvotes for using them.
Here are my previous videos on ways to maximize steemit at this period of the value of Steem:
▶️ DTube
▶️ IPFS
