I feel as though one of the things that this platform is definitely lacking is access. There are times that I would like information on a topic and would prefer to search "in house" but really don't feel as though there is any sort of reliable search option. We also don't rate very prominently with google searches (or duck duck go, which is what I actually use.) I want to give an opportunity to lower-level Steemians to get a somewhat large upvote so that is exactly what I am going to do.
I am going to let me voting percentage (or whatever the technical term is) completely recharge overnight. Then in the next few days I am looking to see links to a post that YOU MADE and then i will read it and as long as it is coherent and original content, I will 100% upvote it.
Here are the rules and don't worry, there aren't many
- your account must be worth less than $200 overall
- the blog entry can be about anything but it must be in English
- if you plagiarize, i will know and obviously this will eliminate you
- photo entries must be followed by at least a paragraph of context... a simple photo with a title will not be considered.
- the first 20 replies i get will be the only ones considered (although participation levels have been so low lately, maybe I won't even get 20 replies)
Now here is the thing: I don't really need you to write something amazing - I just want you to write something that is your own work. If you can follow the above rules I will automatically give 100% upvote to your post regardless of whether or not I think it is good. If it is good, I will follow you and I am one of those people on Steemit that participates in the platform daily... so there is a great chance I will upvote you again in the future if you continue to make content.
I will also give the one I consider to be the best a feature story, a resteem, and some monetary reward (nothing major, something like 5-10 SBD).
OK, GO!
consequently, this is not meant to be patronizing, if anyone thinks it is please let me know and I will eliminate the contest altogether. I'm only trying to help out the smaller folks / discover talent
