Arabsteem project

So in the last few months, I started an initiative to support and bring in more Arab speaking people into steemit. We want more Arab people to join into the platform, and contribute quality content whether in Arabic, English, or both..
The purpose? well it's a two-way street we definitely want more people to join steemit so that more people get rewarded for their hard work and quality content, but also the more people join, the more exposure steemit/steem receive, more demand, and hence price goes up.
we were all quite happy with the price growth over the last few months, I don't mind seeing steem grow to 10$, or even 100$ .. why not?!

Arab world potential

The Arab world has more than 420 million arab speakers with half of whom under 25 years old (according to wikipedia/unesco).
Steemit at the moment has very minimal infiltration into the Arab world.

Our work so far

  • We had created the @arabsteem project/steemit account few months back to start engaging with existing Arab speaking individuals on the platform
  • We created our own discord channel for those same purposes, and to discuss how to better promote steemit. At the moment we have 88 registered members on our discord.
  • We started upvoting good Arab created content. For this purpose, I had done several power ups on my own account, but also delegated around 500 SP to @arabsteem so that the account can grow on its own through curation rewards.
  • We have been helping Arab members learn what good content entails, avoiding plagiarism, adding content and image references, quoting sources, and guidelines on how to write a good post.
  • We had two new members assist with our management work at the discord channel, and help out with ideas into promoting and growing arabsteem. Thank you @mokh-tar and @khaled-dz for being so helpful ! :)
  • We have started issuing, 2 weeks ago, a daily curation digest for the best Arab created content (up to 5 posts per day are chosen). A big thank you to @abigail-dantes for her support here :)
  • We started our own curation trail @arabsteem on steemauto.com to allow anyone to follow our work, support us and also benefit from curation reward. The trail has 10 members.
  • We started arabsteem facebook page in the last few days to help further promote steemit into the Arab world. I plan on starting paid campaigns to promote it into the arab world as well.

How you can help

I personally have been contributing a lot of time and effort into this project because I believe this has the potential to succeed and accomplish what I highlighted above in the intro. At times it has been even keeping me from contributing too often to my personal work on steemit.
In order to help, if you find our work as exciting as we do, we are looking for ways to grow the account further, and be able to reward quality Arab contributions, and enticing more people to join and write great content. The way we see it you can help in two ways:

  • Delegate Steem Power to @arabsteem: The project currently has very little SP, aside from my own delegation. To be able to reward Arab's contributions properly, the account needs to have enough SP to have a valuable voting power.
  • Join Curation Trail: Our curation trail is setup under steemauto.com with the account name @arabsteem. The trail votes according to the quality of the post. I'm personally following the trail to join in my voting power to reward contributors - my vote gives around 60 cents at the moment, so not that big to make a valuable award.
  • I said two ways, but if you can think of other ways, that would be awesome and I'd love to hear ! :)

Hoping this message reaches listening ears. You can contact us at discord or steemit.chat, my account is @mcfarhat on both. Or just join us on our @arabsteem discord.

Thank you for reading through, and a big thank you for supporting in any way you find suitable! :)
