Hi Everyone,
Anyone who comments on this post will receive an upvote in celebration! The better the comment, the more valuable the upvote. It was my target to reach 500 SP, mostly through investing my own cash and trading other cryptos for it, but partially because of your upvotes, so thank you! 500 is the first and most important milestone to reach for anyone since with 500 SP you are able to adjust the weight of your upvote. With 500 SP, you can upvote anyone between 1 and 100% of your upvote's weight depending on the quality of the content or what you feel like doing.
Excuse my poor Google Draw art, one of my next goals is to improve the quality of it. Another priority is to reach 50 reputation points, this shouldn't take very long with 500 SP. It's important to be able to curate and upvote as many people as you can because hopefully, they will upvote you back. Quality work is most important, but you want to be visible and the best free way you can promote yourself is to comment on other peoples posts and hope they look at yours. I am not recommending you Spam irrelevant links!
As mentioned, anyone who comments will receive an upvote, I really appreciate the dialog and often will go into your posts and upvote them along with the comments. As always, I follow back people who comment, upvote and follow me. I believe you should always treat your active followers great.
*Disclaimer: this upvote for a comment offer is only good for 7 days from the post. I will not upvote Spam
Bye for meow 😺 mRrrrrrrr....
Cateriffic! Just in for the upvote. Good work to favorite steemit kitty. I have a similar goal.
Did I mention the possibility of larger upvotes for using a cat pun 😺
Congratulations on reaching the 500SP goal, i am sure you'll be at 50 in no time, i am a newbie and to be honest sometimes i find it difficult to impose myself on steemit, partly because of hoew far i feel a lotta people have come. But seeing how far you have come in such a short time is really encouraging.
Spent a lot of time on this. You'll do fine if just find a couple communities and join. Use a couple odd but accurate tags gets you more real views than the generic ones I have on this post. A friend of mine blogged about making moonshine and got a few large upvotes, it's unique. Another good way is to convert some of your less favorite crypto currency holdings into Steem, transfer them here and power up. Good luck and I followed you)
Thanks a lot crypticat i'll definitely be doing all you said, followed you too
Well, well, well look who has all the power right meow. 😼
Seriously though, congrats! Next up, world domination! You've always supported me and my kitty and we do appreciate that. 😊
Cat people are good people. Thanks for the kind words)
It is an important milestone, @crypticat! I am proud of you for having reached it. It seems to me that you have tenacity to achieve much more than that in the future. It is Steemians like you that this platform needs more of – genuine, dedicated, friendly and positive. Steem on, my friend, and look forward to the day when we are both happy dolphins!
P.S.: Oh, and try canva.com for your illustrations for Steemit. You are going to love it, I promise!
Thanks Oleg, I'll check it out😺 you're one of the best Steemians out there
500 is a great milestone. How long did it take you to get there?!
My next goal is 40 sp which will make votes 0.01$ heavy. But it will take me like 100 days on the pace i'm using atm.
After you brought my attention to steem-bounty, i'm sneaking around there, too!
About 90 days, I bought most of it though on Binance. If you don't have binance here is a referral link https://www.binance.com/?ref=17932302 @steem-bounty is great, just make sure you post a comment that shows a certain level of reading comprehension for best results
yeah i am on binance already, but still you need to buy crypto first somewhere else like coinbase. Yeah i always try to make good comments. Is it a must to upvote the bounty "master"
congratulations on reaching 500 steem power! My goal was to reach 50 reputation which I did recently. Did you know you can check how close you are to 50 at steemnow.com, its keeps me inspired as I know when I am closer to moving up a number!
That's a good tip, thanks for sharing!
Thanks @ladycrypto, congrats on hitting level 51, they're getting more difficult to climb. sttemnow.com is a good link to add to my Steemit folder. Do you use Steemd.com? It's also great
Thanks I will take a look at steemd!

Thanks a lot!
Thanks! I like this bot because it's for a good cause
Great post, in a way your strategy is very similar to mine, although I still have a long way to go with my Steem Power, as mine is just under 100 at the moment. I will continue to use the "Bid Bot upvote" service until my SP reaches 500! As I truly believe using Bid Bots increases your SP and reputation faster by making your post more visible! Have a nice day :)
You have to be careful which bidbots you use, some say positive but I think they're negative. Also, I lways wait at least a few hours or more to give people a chance for curation
Yes, I agree you need some caution, some are better than others ~ Curation is highest around 30 mins after posting I believe √
Here's a vote for you. You dont need to vote me back. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! I followed you and upvoted your latest post, very interesting story about the Kwiksave
Thats awesome! Definitely a goal of mine as well!
Thanks, I'd love to hit your reputation, short of giving away prizes or buying upvotes directly, it's not easy reaching those levels these days
It's funny I never would have thought of using the whole cat persona style thing on Steem but it seems to have really paid off for you. Congrats on the 500sp and thanks for helping grow the community!
Cats are cool, bought most of this SP however. Even a cat knows you gotta give a little to get a little.
Congrats crypticat I knew those cat puns will eventually pay off :) I'm working towards the same goals myself, to eventually curate enough Steem power to help the whole platform.
I'd love to see more original articles from you in either gaming or politics with some more purfect puns to keep me giggling.
Glad to know this is a common goal 😺 I don't game much anymore unless you consider scratching furniture to make my hooman's mad or stealing woodchips from the orchid a game. Can't hide from the politics for long though, something in the news always gets my attention.
Just read you're a video game historian and followed you. I used to play a lot
Awesome crypticat I sincerely appreciate it. I'll do my best to keep Steem growing!
Congratulations! What do you think is more important in reaching your steemit goals, having a clearly defined strategy or being your authentic self and creating things that are important to you?
It depends on what you want to get out of the platform. If you're not here to make money, having a strategy isn't important as long as you're having fun. I like reaching achievements, and I think more people will interact with you if you have a decent reputation and a vote that is worth something. But I always put fun first, this is just a hobby, if Steem goes to zero, I won't lose any sleep.
Nice! Thanks for your response!
