I have been using Hive and Leofinance as well as many other Hive front ends/games for several months now my average posts earn $1 or more a good post is $10-$20 or more. During my time there the amount of knowledge on the system how it works as well as lesser known services and functions that many people may find useful like Hive has a faucet and delegation service one game is free but earns crypto some of the better curation services coupons for stores and much much more.

Delegation/staking
Your income from every tip/curation is tied to both your HP(HIVE power) LP(LEO Power) and many of hives other front ends. Staking CTP for example increases your revenue from CTP hash tagging CTP representing ctptalk.com and its Hive blog. A Front end for those unaware applies to relating to or denoting the part of a computer system or application with which the user interacts directly (when using the computer definition). A Hive front end is any of the various blogs or sites connected via a (Users) Hive account, for example theses are several examples of my Hive account blog on several different sites that are all connected to my hive user account.
Use HIVE as reward/tip

https://www.neoxian.city/@chubb149 Please note there are many more but these are ten examples with 10 sites and more than 10 hashtags you get 10 hashtags on each post use them all if possible. Every coin staked adds to that blog or hashtags power, while some do it automatically most dont stake themselves. WEED and LIST auto stake for example meaning every post when it pays off automatically increases your next posts pay out cool right. In the majority however you need to stake them to yourself via leo dex or Hive-Engine Once you have more staked every post or curation increases in profit( However the auto staking ones are the only ones you dont have to wait 3 months to use)
Delegation
Delegation is used primearily for curating bots/accounts but for new users there is a faucet and delegation service called gift giver
https://giftgiver.site/ You I'm put your hive account name and solve a captcha and request delegation or just HIVE via the faucet menu
taskmaster4450le https://peakd.com/@qurator https://peakd.com/@curangel These are just some of the delegation services that exist you may delegate HP or LP as well as others but not for these three those are strictly LP for the first or HP for the other 2 this is more a intro so I'm condensing alot.
Games
https://www.risingstargame.com?referrer=chubb149 Rising star is free to play at level 25 all of your earnings can be withdrawn and your NFTs sold for hive or leo
https://www.cryptobrewmaster.io/game/invite?ref=3d5efa435682425384e9aeb6236ab07e&code=AlphaBonus Crypto brew master brew NFT beer sell it and compete every week in challenges top 10 players in various challenges 1st pace gets 50 HIVE I started last month and I have won 2 weeks running. Currently ranked #23 master brewer ever on the leader board I have only been playing 45 days chalenes reset every week so everyone can win the leader board is just for bragging rights as far as I know Ill let you know when I hit #1 if it a paid gig. having only spent $5 and won more than that back I think its a good cheap blockchain game to earn HIVE.
https://splinterlands.com?ref=chubb149 card video game available on appstore good news game is free bad news it takes $10 to cash out good news they take paypal. some cards sell for $100,000 or more its worth trying out they are free it gets more lucrative as you play more anyway so try it out at least if you dont think its going to be fun or dont have the time dont buy the spell book the item required to sell and retrieve assets from the game
Dcity
by far the hardest to explain you run a fictional town with taxes residents ect pays users daily sim or hive depending on assets owned in game you also generate nfts at a certain point that add more value and can be sold
Dont loose your keys
as appose to a password you need to use 4 different keys dont loose these you will be screwed, Use key chain or hive signer it will turn a complex process of 4 user keys into 1-2 passwords depending on if your using both. For mobile https://hivesigner.com/
for browser extension(IE chromium based browser like Google chrome, cryptotab, I use BRAVE browser its just better) Browser extension called hive keychain
https://github.com/stoodkev/hive-keychain Hive Keychain is a browser extension that aims to bring the security and ease-of-use of METAMASK to the Hive blockchain platform.
ETH wrapped leo account Off or on hive?
You may recall earlier I mentioned my Leo account wasn't the same as my hive account. How is this possible I use meta mask as a eth wrapped account its risky but it works and this is an experiment due to the easier setup in my opinion, however cutting your account off from the hive blockchain has a few draw backs like only functioning on Leo finance But you still earn LEO HIVE anything you hashtag for and can power up on some of them like LEO and HIVE pot and professionals make strange bed fellows so i keep my Weedcash and finance account separate. By using meta mask app or browser extension https://metamask.io/ 
What im doing is not advised its not designed for this and such presents unnecessary risk please sign up properly using Hive and or Leo
https://peakd.com/register?ref=chubb149 your hive account works just as easy with leo as any other hive front end I separated mine but you dont need to its just a possibility for those scared off by the 4 keys concept that want to check out https://leofinance.io/
Now that your armed with just enough info to be dangerous.....
You probably want to get right to publishing right, Depending on what you write about can have an effect on where you publish. I write about cannabis alot because its legal here and the information on the subject is in high demand. Those who write just about crypto the market or the economy want leofinance as the name suggests its about finance not cannabis. That is weed cash but I publish through Ecency through the weedcash blog and hashtag weedcash it has a similar effect publishes there any way and ecency give you points for everything that are not given a monetary value but can promote your content. Peaked is another popular option due to the cleaner interface.
