How to write a post that trends on steemit.
Everyone here wants to write posts that get 100's of votes and earns some serious $ so here is my guide to do just that.

Now the first thing you need to do is some research into what posts trend the most. Sometimes it's down to a user, they could post a picture of a turd with a bow wrapped around it and would get $60 while I'd just get shit under my fingernails. I'm not saying they do post that but come on, at least one of you try it. The other factor is subject matter, one of the most popular one is to write about steemit, crypto stuff and money so as I know nothing about those things I'm going to wing it.

First I need a graph or other money like image to showtrends and the rises and falls so here is my graph.

![IMG_0935.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmU39gcA5LHVfvGYJpXFUwzsBVf3eN9CE7puACF7YnBEg6/IMG_0935.JPG)

I just drew it on some lined paper and it shows a green line and a purple one that rise and fall between more and less. Across the bottom is the numbers 1 to 11 that show I can put those numbers in the right order. The black circle show a place of interest and the fact I didn't have a red pen to hand.

Do you like it?

While this graph doesn't prove anything it does show a trend (See that sounds money like to me.) but as I'm no professional in coloured lines don't take this as investment advice on coloured lines. (Disclaimers seem to be a must on money posts with graphs.)

So there you have my guide to post that trend on steemit. OK so it's crap and doesn't really give you much to work with as I didn't mention the timing of your post, who sees it and pure luck which until you become someone who could post a turd wearing a bow seems to be 3 major factors.

In the future I hope to bring you the second part of this post which is titled 'Here is a picture of a turd with a bow on it.'

Until then thanks for the 1% auto votes and not bothering reading this as it is a waste of your time when you could be reading a really good post.

I don't think if my posts will trend or not when I write. I just let it flow. 1% votes are lame indeed !

I think that between 8 and 9 you can definitely see a*breakout pattern* suggesting that the lines will continue to move in a jagged direction much like they have been. This can also be seen in the box pattern that you cannot see.
