While Steemit is a nice place to write about anything and make money, it is a great place as well to earn from your skills. There are several skills in high demand on Steemit - graphics design is certainly one of them.
Many Steemians can do great art work using various computer graphics software. If you fall into this category and you currently earn very little on Steemit, that is about to change right now. @sccf went round to look at opportunities here on Steemit for graphics designers and it found two - there could be more! So without much ado, we show you how to earn from your graphics design skill.
2 ways to earn as a graphics designer on Steemit.
1. On Steemgigs
Steemgigs is a project run by @surpassinggoogle. On Steemgigs, everyone has something to offer. Whatever you can do, there is someone who is looking for that skill. So Steemgigs is a place where you can teach someone how to play guitar and you get paid with Steem. You can teach people how to do lots of other stuff like digital marketing, writing and translation, programming and tech, music, drawing, etc. You can even sell tangible materials. Just go to their website and see things for yourself:

So one of the things you can do on Steemgigs is graphics work. You can find people who are looking for someone to do one graphics work or another. Just set up your profile nicely and showcase some of the graphics work you did recently and how much you charge for your work. You could be fortunate to find a client who loves what you do and would like you to work for them.
Steemgigs requires patience as it is more like a marketplace where everyone advertises their product, service or skill and compete with others for clients. So you need to be at your best to make it and you have to take things the way you see them. If you are looking for a more predictable or fairly steady way to earn as a graphics designer, then check the second option below.
2. Mediaworks
@mediaworks run a weekly graphics contest. All graphics designers are welcome to join this contest. Each week comes with a new project and graphics designers are asked to use their creativity to produce any graphic material that could be used by the project owners to promote their work.
The lovely thing about this contest is that anyone who participates is almost a winner as there are up to 100 winning positions for this contest. The 1st position can go home with up to 25steem while the 100th winner goes home with at least 1steem. As mentioned earlier, the contest comes everyweek and this is a great opportunity to earn more by working with your skill. You can check up their page @mediaworks to see if you can participate in this week's contest. Of course, you can follow their bot @mediabot to get notifications of any new contests.
