***Write the importance of performing powerup.***

| |-| *** Importance of Power up: Power up is very important in the Steemit platform. Especially if you want to keep the club tag, you need to power up. If you do not power up according to the rules, you will not have the club tag. If you do not have a club tag, you cannot participate in the engagement challenge contest on the Steemit platform, starting from the contest. If my financial condition is good, my reputation will increase. Likewise, if the power-up on the Steemit platform is high, the ID will be strong. If the power-up is high, it can be rewarded by upvoting the writings of different authors. Engagement with other writers then increases. Upvoting other author's posts with more power-ups will benefit me more. Through a calculation, some amount of SP from upvotes will come to my account. The more I upvote with power up, the more will be credited to my account. I think powering up gives me a lot more of my own. ![Blue line.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVVSPBa5Y1aPXEJAb6vayhmUvFFBamSDJ55cwMaMKUEXV/Blue%20line.png) |SL No.|My Invited Steemit Friends| |-|-| |1|@memamun| |2|@shahariar1| |3|@josepha| ![Steemit.com.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaivZxca3FGCxAXtH3aPvqvvijrhpGM8JUwBUsgX7WFk7/Steemit.com.png)
