So it is Your first time on Publish0x. You just logged in any feel a little bit overwhelmed by quantity of option and possibilities. But don't worry I will try to explain as simple it is possible how to start here :)  

I will create that guide in a form of steps but it is just to make it more transparent and easy to understand, but if You want to jump between those steps fell free :)

Important: this is a guide for total beginners here. I remember when I first came to Publish0x and I was totally lost - I didn't know where to start. Also I saw that a lot of users on Telegram channel have a lot of basic questions, so I decide to create that tutorial. If You think that it can help someone who is new here please share that Guide :)

• 1. Just start reading :)

On main page of Publish0x You Can find a lot of articles.

I highly recommend You to just read some of them. That will You will get a basic feeling how everything here works and what is Publish0x all about - at the end it is a blogging platform :) Also articles on main page usually have a good quality- so You will have a good beginnig here:)

• 2. Let's explore :)

Next thing worth to do is just start exploring different posts categories. Those marked titles are also titles of different categories - if You click one of them it will redirect You to page with post that cover selected topic (according to post tags)

On every category page You will also find a filtering option:

Another option of exploring contest on Publish0x is using option called EXPLORE ;) You Can find it on the top bar of website:

That feature will redirect You to page with some already selected categories:

Last and most exciting option to explore is Search option - You never know what You find :p Again that option Can be found on the top bar of website.

And come on I will not explain how Search option works :p

• 3. Tip posts You like

So You already read some articles and probably some of them was really good and You enjoyed it. It is good opportunity to use most awesome Publish0x feature - tip author.

Below every post You Can find a tip slider. Using that function You Can decide how much You want to tip author and how much You want to keep. Minimum is 20% to author and 80% to You, maximum is 100% for author.

What is most important it wont cost You anything, all tips comes from Publish0x team! So that way You can earning just by reading articles! Tips is in 3 different crypto- Basic Attention Tokens (most if tips), Hydro and DAI coins. You cannot select what coin You want to use it is totally random. Also important info is that You Can tip 6 times in a day!

That option doesn't affect currently anything but using it in a nice way You can let author know that You enjoyed content that he create.
