Steem Atlas Ambassador Report – May 2025
Greetings Steemit Community,
Steem Atlas continues to grow each day, and it's great to see how users are embracing it. As I always say, this is an exciting initiative designed to create a global travel map powered by the Steem community.
In May 2025, as a Steem Atlas Ambassador, I continued working towards the development of it with various activities. We always try to encourage the genuine users who continuously support us with high-quality content.

Verification of posts and guiding users
The most important task I did in the last month, as always, was reviewing posts especially relevant to South Asia. As we are ultimately targeting the outside audience, the accuracy of the details, location, and the standards of the posts are highly considered. So, I checked the pin location through several sources, and review the articles based on these 21 Tips.
There are a few things we considered in the review, as shown below, essential guidance and tips were given whenever needed.
As a Community curator
In the last month, @fantvwiki, @willeusz, and I got selected as Community Curators, representing the Steem Atlas team. It was a wonderful experience we all had, familiarizing ourselves with many places all around the world. According to our guidelines, Fantvwiki, Willeusz, and I supported the Steem Atlas-related posts that are up to the standard of the project and the Steemit, using the @steemcurator03 account.
| Weekly Report | Number of posts curated by me |
|---|---|
| * First Week; May 01 - May 07, 2025 | 38 posts |
| * Second Week; May 08 - May 14, 2025 | 45 posts |
| * Third Week; May 15 - May 21, 2025 | 34 posts |
| * Fourth Week; May 22 - May 28, 2025 | 35 posts |
| * Final Week; May 29 - May 31, 2025 | 18 posts |
Special gratitude to the Steemit team for this opportunity, which has immensely helped the popularity of the project.
Contests
For the promotion of the platform and to get more engagement, I am continuously hosting a contest in the Steem Sri Lanka community. Now it's the 10th edition, and each week I receive a good number of entries from various countries. Here's a detailed report with a number of participants and rewards shared.
| Announcement Post | Number of Participants | Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| Steem Atlas Challenge Vi | 5 entries | 21 Steem Power |
| Steem Atlas Challenge Vii | 9 entries | 27 Steem Power |
| Steem Atlas Challenge Vi | 3 entries | 21 Steem Power |
| Steem Atlas Challenge iX | 5 entries | 25 Steem Power |
My Publications
Well, I wasn't actively publishing in the Steem Atlas in the first half of the month due to my busy schedule. Anyway, in the last week I could climb the leaderboard with a few publications. There are many places that I have recently visited, and hope to share them soon. Here is the list of my posts in the last few weeks.
| Cover Image | Post |
|---|---|
 | Dematamal Viharaya - Buttala |
 | Prasad - The Fashion Square, Matara |
 | Maligawila Temple & the Buddha Statue- Okkampitiya |
 | Beddagana Wetland Park |
Challenge Faced and Final Thoughts
Well, even though many users follow our standards, we can still see some posts not following the guidelines, even after the reviews. So, I suggest everyone follow the 21 Tips and attend to the Ambassador's recommendation ASAP to get higher votes from the curators.
As an Ambassador from Sri Lanka, unfortunately, there are a few users frequently posting on Steem Atlas and overall Steemit. Anyway, I hope the enthusiasm will grow, and I regularly encourage them to share their travel content.
So overall, it was a productive month, and I look forward to attracting more local community in the coming month and supporting the project. Thank you to the Steem Atlas team and the broader Steemit community for the support.
