Hive as we all know is a decentralized platform aimed at awarding it's users in crypto currency called Hive
There are different ways one can earn in It varies from producing original contents to engaging in contests etc.
Some of them includes;
- Original content creation:
Creating orginal contents here includes stories that involves your everyday life, fictional stories made up by the author (not copied) and essay writing, just to mention a few.
Pictures taken by the author could also serve as an original content. Sourced images can also go provided that the content is original.
This way curators might find the post interesting and worth upvoting, thereby making the author earn a few dollars or hive.
There are various communities that harbours such contents. For it to be valid, the author can subscribe to the community and help grow the community.
Communities that appreciate original contents are: #gems, #ocd, #3speak, #theterminal, #bcdcommunity, #powerhousecreatives, #projecthope, #freewriters among others.

All hosts have their laid down rules and regulations that must be strictly followed in order for it to be qualified as a contest.
In some contests, winners are sure to be rewarded with pool prices while other participants are sure of at least an upvote from the host.
Those that didn't win are encouraged to do participate and try again.
This way hiveians are able to earn a few dollars or hive just by engaging in contests #engage-on-hive.
- Commenting on people's post
Although this might be considered as a shallow way of earning but engaging others through comments can earn a few cents.
Some authors can decide to vote each comment made. At the expiration of the post pay out, the earned reward is transferred to the hive account.
- Hosting contests
Hosting and engaging in contests can be a two way thing for both the author and the participants.
When a person decides to hold contests, the post is upvoted by their followers.
Some authors guarantees winners a percentage of the posts payout making it a win-win for both parties. It's also a valid way to earn.
- Upvoting
With the way is structured, continuous upvoting can earn a few rewards. For instance, a voter votes at 100% voting power $30.
The author receives the $30 dollars but when it's time for payout, half of the reward goes to the author while the other half goes back to the curator.
This is the same for all others that voted on that blog.
- Joining a community trail
A community trail in my own understanding constitutes of a group of connected accounts which automatically upvoted its members posts.
This can't be reliable in the short run as most accounts at the starting point as members have little hive power to vote but in the long run it proves effective and members earn more each time a post is made.
