I did that for most of the first 100 STEEM. I had $20 that my husband put in (that was about 5 STEEM I think) and got some good sized upvotes and payouts from contests. Definitely look for interesting contests. I recommend you enter this one: https://steemit.com/contest/@thedarkhorse/round-2-free-delegations-for-4-weeks
