Yes, voting power matters here at steemit. The lower your power, the less rewards for you and the less rewards for the person you vote for.
The lower your sp - the more it makes a difference if you keep your power high. If you have a low sp value and vote with low power - no one is getting anything out of your action.
You are voting to:
- show your support for another steemer
- give author rewards to the other steemer
- give curation rewards to yourself
No - steemers are not happy just to see your name on their post for no value. Everyone wants rewards, and if your vote gives no reward - it is pointless.
You are wrong. Steemers are happy to get rewards. Votes for zero are of no benefit here.
As soon as you get higher power - you also get higher rewards. My vote gets attention at only 10 cents since so many people fail to vote and vote with no power. You can have this success too.
Start with a goal to get up to 75% by the each of each day. Many people recommend 85% and I stay over 90%.
It's true! If you vote less- your power will increase!
Follow @penguinpablo and use his https:steemnow.com site. This site has many awesome features, I'm only showing you how to check your power with it now.
This is a good page to keep open for many reasons and checking your power is just one of them.
You can use bots if that is what you like to do. Bots are the reason I noticed this trouble in the first place. I get bot votes on my posts and I am very grateful to get them. But many bots vote at such low power that they have no effect.
Just turn down the frequency of your voting to gain more rewards.
