Week 32 - Pay It Forward Curation Contest
The Pay It Forward Curation Contest is all about increasing exposure for high quality posts and increase the level of engagement on steemit. You can take part by entering the contest or just helping visit the entries and their featured posts. Everyone chooses their level of involvement and we appreciate the efforts of everyone who helps promote quality content on Steemit.
No changes of note so for the regulars go start curating and those of you who are here for the first time welcome and read below for the rules.
Note: @lynncoyle1 is taking a week or two off and this week @wolfhart will be taking her place.
As always check back to this post often and scroll to the end to see a list of this week's curation entries!
How to Enter the Pay It Forward Curation Contest?
To enter the Curation Contest you will find 2 high quality blog posts written by reputation level 55 or lower steemians and then write a curation style blog post like this entry by @viking-ventures from week 16 which won a Judges Choice Award. The idea is to highlight both posts and why you thought they were high quality.
To be clear the Level 55 max is only for the bloggers who are featured, anyone may submit a curation entry. |

Happy Rewards Hunting!
This week we will be cutting back the upvote on your entry comment to 20%. This will preserve more VP for the featured blog posts. As long as your entry follows all the rules each entry comment will get this same vote, in rare cases a lower or high vote might be given due to quality.
Only pointing this out in case those that notice these things think we are giving less to just them. Wanted to give a higher vote to the featured posts this week. So adding 5-10% per featured post compared to the vote it would have gotten in weeks past.
Our SP is the highest it's ever been thanks to a 1,000sp delegation from @kaliju who is a huge supporter of our community and the mind behind @dstors which will be an online marketplace allow us to buy and sell items for steem/SBD.
Good luck everyone
Good luck on week 32!

Finally you made it.. next time you need to put the banners too 😉 would love to support your featured bloggers
I believe the banner is optional. Great to use, but not essential. @pifc will give a better answer, no doubt.
Banner isn't required by any means.
