 While putting your first steps on Ecency you may deal with *"low resource credits".* Of course, you may not understand why resource credits are needed, but this does not mean that they are unnecessary. We need **Resource Credits** to protect the blockchain from spam. If you are new to Ecency, be sure that we have wonderful users who are always there to support you. They are always happy to give a helping hand. You can also be supported by Ecency  through getting **Account Boost** or we call it **Boost+**. You can take it any time, both web and mobile applications. Everything is so simple and you can do it without any difficulties.   
   On the web version at the top of your account where you can see ![](https://i.imgur.com/hf1z8Ye.png) icon. Clicking it you will have the following screen:

You can make payments via Google Pay or Apple Pay by pressing the **Boost+** button. After successful payment, you will be  delegated about (553311 VESTS) ~305 HP for 30 days of activity. During 30 days, you can earn your Hive Power by doing as many activities as you want, such as writing posts, and leaving comments. It will be enough time for building your account. After 30 days it will automatically remove the delegation. 
 Another useful piece of information is that you can buy multiple **Boost+**. If you make two payments for **Boost+** then you will have(2*553311 VESTS)  ~ 610 HP.
   That was a little information about how to become a part of Ecency while putting your first steps on it. Be active and don't give up. You can do it!!!
