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.
source
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
I mean, you already follow me for my sexy toilet cam streams, and I don't really need the upvote or anything. But, I do believe you should see the wonderfulness of the midwests spring weather: https://steemit.com/nature/@deadspace/mother-nature-is-an-insipid-cunt
The rain itself wasn't the worst thing, but when some of the hail coming down was bigger than a gumball I'm ready to nope the fuck out. This kinda stuff, in combination with the other night where tornadoes basically were shit out of the sky and onto our faces (It was something like 150 tornadoes in an 8 hour period throughout the midwest) makes me question if the center of the country is even going to be habitable 20 years from now. I feel like global warming is truly butt fucking nature into doing some crazy ass stuff.
ha! you always make me laugh buddy. Just what i need in the morning :)
How to search is a big mystery to me too.
I could not on steemit.com and with partiko it is hard too.
Also because my internet is slow.
If it comes to Google you need the right tags which we don't. No one on earth will search for the tags used here on Google.
Photography, life, busy, health, etc all tags great inside this media but not in the outside world. There you are one if many.
As a tag you need to fill out something (question or...) people would search for using a searching machine.
Now you only can find someone by searching by name.
That I cannot find my own posts searching by name is annoying too. The list is way to long and I can not scroll back on my smartphone 1 year or even longer.

I'm fully behind this! I've been here too long to participate, but this is a great idea.
This is really amazing and cool @gooddream. This kind of motivation will keep the few of us active here on the platform going. I will like to feature this my post as an entry:
https://steemit.com/steemiteducation/@focusnow/teach-you-kids-how-to-save-energy-in-5-ways
Thanks for the motivation.
I think this is a great idea, but unfortunately I can't participate because of the value of my account (which is over $200).
For me, it would be a great opportunity for my English publications to yield visibility and a higher reward value.
Me, too!
i'll do another one for the mid-range peeps. Just figured I would start with the people who likely need it most :)
Thanks and I fully understand your idea and agree with it, @gooddream.
By the way, I'd like to introduce you to this idea and see if I can count on some support from you (resteem, upvote...) because I need some visibily make this idea works... CHALLENGE: SHARE YOUR MOVIE (# 01) - MEMORIES OF A CHILDHOOD.
Could you please check it?

I think this is a great idea, and cool of you to do. You actually inspired me to stay up until almost 2am writing this post lol. Thank you for running this contest! :)

Thank you!!

hi matt, you linked to the page that has everyone's introduce yourself posts on it. haha. I found your most recent post and voted for it instead.
I really appreciate Steemians like you who are willing to help the little guy out. It can be so discouraging to put your heart and soul into a project only for it to go unnoticed. It's a huge boost just to get a few people to upvote and comment on my posts. Anyway, here's the latest in my gardening vlog. I really hope you and others like it.
https://steemit.com/dtube/@brewcitygardener/94tf1uhw
very informative vlog pal and as luck would have it this is very useful information for me
I'm glad I could help. That's what this is all about for me. I love to share my passion and hope to inspire others.
Hey dude! Here is my post :)

I’m writing about my move back to NZ, which will happen in about 3 weeks! Crazy times:) a few pictures from my time there. I’m looking forward to this one 😀 I’ll miss Thailand though... I’ll be back 😜
Love the idea of this contest man and thanks for trying to help out us smaller acccounts! 🌅
That's nice to bring such an interesting contest. Will surely love to participate.

hmmm, i can't upvote this on the link you provided. I'll try to see if I can do so via partiko on my phone.

Sorry. Maybe this one is better?
i found you on the app already :)

This is a really nice contest!

Here's a new blog I posted yesterday just to get warmed up on blogging again.
https://steemit.com/metalweekend/@kryptik.tigrrr3d/metal-weekend-another-trio-of-heavy-hitting-positivity
OK, I hate to double dip. However, you seem to be right about the lack of engagement in posts. I would have thought this post would have been filled now that I've been watching it for at least a full 24 hours.
I guess I will use it as an opportunity to get in on your 20 post maximum. Might as well. I am actually more excited about this newest post than I am about the original post I entered. And who isn't intrigued by mushrooms?? Therefore, here's my latest post on the BrewCityGardener channel:
https://steemit.com/dtube/@brewcitygardener/sp6jby7o
I really hope everyone likes it as much as I had fun making it.
Thanks again,

yeah, that is fine :)
I hope it's not late for me to join. If not... then I'm in.
it's not too late. post your link and make sure you wrote it less than 7 days ago. :)

In the future I should say that I need a Steemit link but don't worry about it because I used Partiko on my phone to find this article. I'm glad you are sharing this stuff on Twitter.
Gentleman! I will do exactly the same next time.
Thanks for your kindness!

Hey, my account is much too big otherwise I would probably share something with you. Though, I think you follow most of my stuff anyway. I am happy to see that you are getting some good replies here. I did a challenge myself on Friday and as of today I have gotten zero replies. It makes me pretty sad that people don't seem to care. I am fully ready to give out some SBI shares but no one seems to want them :)
ill do another one later for the "middle class"
