Witness Update
As of this post my witness has been online for almost a week with active price feed updates thanks to @yabapmatt for the new price feed script along with @yehey an @jerrybanfield for the walk thru that got me thru the set up. I dont post much on steem, but i do want to make this one of the best witness's out there. Once i can get this going along with the back end help of @mggiodev we will have a couple of more witness's set up along with a seeder node or two to help along the way. Any advise would be great on how to get more votes. I want to help contribute back to steem in the way that it has for all of us that use this platform for fun an for business purposes.

Why do you want to set up more witness accounts?
why not set up more if we can grow the witness end an get the blocks going thru quicker its better for all plus dont get me wrong the money part of it is always good an we are also wanting to set up a witness for my business partner also
setting up more witness accounts won't necessarily speed up the blockchain, besides, Steemit already has one of the fastest blockchains. If you set up multiple witness accounts I wouldn't expect many supporters of all of them. It may even have a negative impact on your reputation as a witness because then it seems like you are only after the witness rewards. Most if not all people will only vote for one of your witness accounts, assuming you are actually contributing to Steemit. If your plan is just to try and earn by capturing as many of the top 100 spots then you might want to learn more about what a witness actually does and what it is all about. All users have 30 votes and they won't waste them by voting on the same person multiple times.
