Earning as a Customer:

![](https://i.imgur.com/amp2d1Q.png) As we previously stated, there are two ways to earn with [SmartSteem.com](https://smartsteem.com): - You can earn as a Customer - You can earn as a Supporter Let's start by going over everything you can do as a customer, which includes using our bidbot, buying votes on SmartMarket and making sure it is all done with the highest quality guidelines in mind. Trust us... we hate SPAM just as much as you do, and low effort posters, spammers and plagiarists won't find our service cooperative. But let's approach each of these topics in depth now. ![](https://i.imgur.com/anP8Kev.png)

Meet SmartSteem the BidBot:

![](https://i.imgur.com/VX1p26L.png) If you want to use our bidbot, you simply need to send @smartsteem a minimum of 0.5 SBD or STEEM and link the post you want it to boost in the MEMO section of the transfer. As of now, @smartsteem has a vote roughly worth $70, but that is subject to change on a daily basis. This bidbot is ideal for the little guys who want added exposure as it has a low minimum bid amount ensuring even the smallest players get a say. ![](https://i.imgur.com/anP8Kev.png)

Go the Extra Mile with SmartMarket:

![](https://i.imgur.com/7v8o5FU.png) On the other hand, you have @smartmarket. Smartmarket is a service that allows you to buy votes, but it has a twist. Unlike its competitors where you buy a vote and get it done by someone, you can buy a vote with smartmarket and get it done by multiple people. Sounds confusing? It isn't... Simply put, if you buy a vote worth $10 on our competitors' services, you'll get an upvote worth $10. On the other hand, buying a vote worth $10 from us can net you a $5, a $3 and a $2 upvote. This makes it seem more natural and organic, so you can get all of the benefits with zero shame. ---

High Quality Standards:

You should also note that we review each SmartSteem account manually and Whitelist them or Blacklist them. When the accounts are approved, we give them between 1 to 3 stars depending on their content's quality. We care about the content on the blockchain and we take pride in ensuring a proper "SmartScore" is given to each individual, but more on that later. ![](https://i.imgur.com/anP8Kev.png)

Earning as a Supporter:

![](https://i.imgur.com/V8ESeET.png) Now, there are a lot more ways to work with us and ensure your growth rates go through the roof. **You can:** * Sell your Votes through SmartMarket; * Delegate your SP to SmartSteem; * Calculate your Revenue for both the cases. ...and even earn a percentage of the vote-selling profits from your referrals to the site! It's a win-win-win! Let's take a look at how that works. ![](https://i.imgur.com/anP8Kev.png) ### Sell Your Votes to SmartMarket: ![](https://i.imgur.com/h0ceyTb.png) The above image is your "Features" page on the SmartSteem.com portal. Through it you can sell your votes. Simply select your voting power treshold, and choose the payout deadline. Finally, you're given the ability to either sell your vote to anyone or only for SmartScore Star users. While you'll get faster income with Everyone tagged in, choosing SmartScore Stars ensures you only vote for content providers manually approved by us, so you know it's quality stuff. ![](https://i.imgur.com/anP8Kev.png)

Delegate To SmartSteem:

![](https://i.imgur.com/mOQAhAj.png) You can also delegate to SmartSteem, our BidBot. If you do, then you receive a proportional part of the 95% slice of the bid-bot's profits. This can be a very lucrative way to ensure your SP is being used even when you don't plan to use it yourself. Ever wonder why Whales delegate to bots so much? It's because it works as an investment. Care to capitalize on your Idle Steem Power? This may be the thing for you. ![](https://i.imgur.com/anP8Kev.png)
