---

• Contests
• Account Farmers
• Greeter Tasks
• My Vision/ Future Plans

Level up your STEEM Game, One-on-one Guidance Sessions

---

I have been into guiding users for a long time but in this new role as a CR, I thought of doing it officially to get the attention of more users. A few weeks ago, I announced a small initiative of conducting one-on-one sessions with Pakistani users who are facing difficulties on Steemit.

Last week, I had @ cocomuff and @ afifaasif in the guidance sessions. We discussed the following things during the week:

• How to create an eye-catching cover picture and title?
• All about tags
• Content ideas besides diaries
• How to attract readers?
• The importance of voting and commenting
• How to get exposure?
• Which communities to post to?
• What's an ideal post length?
• Curation Team and Engagement Challenge queries

Contests

---

To keep the users engaged in creative activities, I usually organize contests in Steemit Pakistan. I announced the result of last week's contest 2 days ago. I was rather disappointed with the few entries and that too with low quality. Most of the users re-wrote articles from the Internet and got rejected.

Contest Result! Mention Invention

Greeter Report

Here, I will be summarizing my activities as a Greeter in the newcomers' community for the time period 10-08-22 to 17-08-22. I verify the introduction tasks and guide the newcomers from Pakistan and try to cover other countries in South Asia as well. I also verify other achievement tasks that are in English or Urdu.

Account Farmers

---

This week, I took up the challenge to re-evaluate the old verified users. Previously, many users got their way into Steemit due to massive fraudulent activities in the over-crowded Greeters team. I am rectifying that by slowly muting all the fake accounts, and catching the account and content farmers. It's a very tedious task that keeps me away from the more productive things. But I will still keep doing it to clean the mess as much as I can.

My Vision

I want to see a successful and independent Pakistani community on Steemit that will make great contributions to the development of Steem and create valuable content. For this, I am carefully promoting Steemit to potential content creators and I am also on the look for potential investors.

Alongside, I am working on guiding existing users to grow their accounts and also helping them to improve their blogs.

I am also in touch with my fellow CRs regarding collaborations on joint projects for the development and promotion of Steem in Pakistan. Hoping for better times.
