Minnow of The Week Contest #1 Searching for Undervalued Minnows!

in #contest7 years ago (edited)

I know how hard it can be to get your blogs discovered when you are new on Steemit. Content discovery is currently one of our biggest issues and because of the insane amount of posts uploaded daily, finding quality authors can be very hard.

That's why I decided to make this contest dedicated to all the hard working minnows out there who are producing quality content but are struggling to get the recognition they deserve.

I think everyone deserves a chance to get their content out there and if you are a minnow that's really putting in the work and making some sweet posts that aren't giving you any payouts, then you are the perfect candidate for this challenge.

HOW TO ENTER


Make a post about your Steemit journey, introduce yourself, tell your story ( what is your goal on steemit, what values are you bringing to the community, why you deserve to win)
Include a link to your best post
Title your post Minnow of The Week + (Your desired title)

Resteem this post and tell your friends to get more minnows joining

RULES


SP < 1000
Only 1 entry per account
No spam or begging for votes
Plagiarism is unacceptable and will be punished hard


IMPORTANT: If you got any questions about the contest or steemit in general, please don't hesitate to contact me on discord or SteemitChat name is same as here and I'm always here to help. Looking forward to chatting with you :)




WHO ARE MINNOWS?

Although you are a minnow until you get 10 Million MV, IMO a minnow is someone with SP less than 1000. Anything more than that and you can't join the challenge, sorry.

REWARDS

  • In a week when this post pays out the contest is over and I'll pick 1-3 winners, depending on the number of total entries.
  • Each winner get's unlimited upvotes for the entire week and a resteem

NOTE: If you win and try to abuse my good will by shitposting three times a day only to get my upvote, you will be removed from the upvote list and maybe even flagged out of existence. I can't stand someone trying to take advantage of my kindness, so please don't!


I'm really looking forward to meeting all under the radar minnows that are valuable members of the community but can't get their posts seen by the bigger fish in the sea. Best of luck to everyone!

Use #minnowoftheweek tag so I can find you

I would like to take part but already reaching the upper limit :) I would like to recommend @instagoodfood I introduced him to the platform because I think he has great potencial.

You can still join if you are less than 1000 SP, tell your friend to join :)

It is tempting. I am on the platform since August and felt undervalued :) Recently I was noticed by curie so before your post ends, I will be over your limit what is great news for me :) I could not be happier. I worked very hard for this. I will speak to my friend and ask him to join your contest. Thanks for the opportunity. I hope you will stumble on my artwork some day too.

What a great project! Keep up the good work.

I'm really grateful to you for giving us the opprtunity to do this. Gaining recognition is very hard here, and that is what you are offering on a platter of gold...
Let me go and make a wonderful post..

Nice contest...as a minnow i depend on contests for some sbd, so be sure to expect my entry.

I got 2 more contests you can enter, check them out :)

Thank you @runicar for these opportunity to put up these contest and for me to be able to tell my story, off to make my post

Np, man. Looking forward to reading your story!

Waooo nice one am on it.


Getting my content discovered and upvoted has been my greatest challenge here on steemit. Most times it even discourages me. But i will pick confidence from this point hoping to break through using this opportunity. Thanks once againThanks @runicar

Have been looking forward for these.i am off to make the post!

I can not understand, you leave a link to the post with my presentation here?

Nope, just use #minnowoftheweek tag for your post and I will find it

Thanks, I'll try to participate

Wow... I see things as an opportunity to show the best I can do so far.... Thank you @runicar for this contest


May God bless you immediately for this opportunity.Thanks for this great contest @runicar

Awesome initiation.It's really painful to be a minnow, but never give up! Sorry I can't participate:(
All the best everybody!

I'm in on this, definitely participating

If a good percentage of the dolphins and whales can follow this and care a little about the minnows that are putting in good contents and the minnows caring about the planktons, the community would have been way better

I am definitely taking up this challenge...am on it!

Well done.

That's exactly what I'm hoping to achieve. Glad to have you onboard!

I'm off to make the post!🤓

Great, looking forward for your entry!

Do you accept international (German) plankton / minnows ? Very good idea !

If you can write in English I don't see a reason why you couldn't join. Can't accept German as I don't understand it and can't evaluate quality.

Helo runic, thanks for this great opportunity you have given to us minnows to thrive in the turbulent waters of steemit. This act of kindness will not be forgotten in a hurry and on behalf of other minnows I say THANK YOU

challenge accepted @runicar.

Awesome! Will take time to participate. I love the platform, to make original content, but because I don't have a lot of time to socialize with other stemains a lot and my hard work is often not noticed. Thank you for this opportunity.

I feel your pain. It's really hard to get noticed here. That's why I decided to do this :)

Ready with the post :D Did not expect to take me the whole day, but was fun creating it :)

Awesome! Did you post it? Because I can't find it.

Yes, I did. here it is. Hope you enjoy.

Very nice and considerate work! You are the best :) I will try attend this activity.

very useful and what you publish is very good for my personal knowledge, hopefully always keep motivation bro

What an honour to participate in this contest. Love this project! <3

What an encouragement to discover such contest through my friend's, @gabchik, post! I will ponder the best way to tell my story.

P.S. Thank you again for your comment on my sunrise/telephone pole picture. I looked up geoengineering and had no idea. I did know a little about chemtrails but didn't have the entire of the story. So now I agree...those clouds in my picture are indeed "fucked up."

The world is a fucked up place when you discover to what lengths the leading forces are willing to go for their personal profits. Glad you actually read up on it! Looking forward for your entry!

I really appreciate what you are doing for the community of minnows. Great contest!

Thank you for the recognition and support. Btw I've seen you aren't a minnow but you do some pretty awesome travel posts. I got something perfect for you. Steemit World Map Challenge #2 Everyone wins! It's an initiative to encourage people to contribute their posts to SteemitWorldMap I would appreciate it if you take a look and maybe even contribute your posts to the map :)
