RE: Week 6 - Pay It Forward Curation Contest - Win SBI & Steem-Bounty

in #payitforward7 years ago

I don't follow enough people that fit the description to be able to nominate, but I love the idea, and some of the people who follow me might, so resteem! Thank you for ideas on people to follow!!!

Sort:  

You dont have to have them in your following dear...you can find persons using the "New" search or just browsing by tags.....hope that helps.

Oh I am going to try to nominate!

Just not right now...

I wouldn't want to just scan through the new section and pull out a random half decent post real quick to later realize that post was the only half decent one they seemed to have (followed and unfollowed a few people on that premise, I'm learning though).

I don't off the top of my head know of anyone under 50 and recently posted I mean. Searching for good-to-me content has been my crusade, seeing contests like this gives me a lot of hope and is the main reason I came back to Steemit, so I will certainly narrow my search to people that fit to nominate over the next couple of days, if by chance I don't, at least I tried to get the word out.

I should have been more clear about that sorry, multitasking XD

Yeah, I understand what you mean. That is okay too. I have also unfollowed persons on the same premis. That is what we should be about...quality and finding persons who have the potential to do great on here. All the best.

Thanks for joining us!

Thank you for being so conscientious in your selections!!

Thanks for jumping in and helping clear things up @honeysim!

No prob....was happy to.

Oh please don't let this hold you back at all. It takes a little work but as @honeysim mentioned use the New search. Go to the tags select one then click on New at the top next to Trending. It is amazing what you find. In fact that's what I do when I go searching. I personally don't go for the 'brand new' introducemyself people, I'll let others sift through that. More than half after less than 24 hours have a Rep higher than mine a follower count higher than mine,$10+ on their payout and well over 50 upvotes. That doesn't exactly scream quality content to me (even though it might)

You'll find what works for you though. The main thing is to comment/engage with the person. Do a proper comment. Show them you read their post and that you appreciate them are really my only suggestions. I have no doubt you'll find some and it's pretty exciting to see what that a little bit of traffic can do for someone.

@tryskele, you are so right. That is the technique that I have been using. It is usually a bit of a risk when one chooses to nominate a brand new person. But even them (some) deserve visibility too and we never know how much of an impact we can have when we pick them out early. With this they can get a glimpse of what Steemit can really be. Overall, there are some really good content creators out there. We just have to take the time to find them and use our better judgement.

Most definitely. Sounds bad I think that is laziness on my part. It's A LOT of sifting there. Others love it . I love to find the people who have been on 2-6 mos and seem to be struggling. However I always do a once through the newest ones to see if someone catches my eye.

I actually touched on all of this in my entry and my brain is too tired to respond properly so, link lol

I saw it after I posted this. Sometimes I can be a bit linear. Still great work.

Sometimes I wish that I was a bit more linear!
