Background
We started 35 days ago when @mudcat36 put up a post about his desire to make it easier for newbies to get started. Since then, #newbieresteemday has had hundreds that have joined us in this simple mission. (yes @beeyou its higher than even you know) ;)
We do many things in many ways, but each person that wants to help, we welcome. We've grown a "good" community is a very swift period of time. And as @bashadow so rightly points out, we've also grown each other!
Our New Curation Trail Pays The First Dividend
One of the programs that we set up was a new account: @newbieresteemday for the purpose of helping to "encourage" the newbies initially with a "top 10 post of the day" upvote that was meaningful. The reason why it is meaningful is that we have people that "trail" our vote and it adds to the total for the author. So now we get a $0.28 upvote instead of just $0.05. And then the ABC's of Curation then do their magic (@amariespeaks, @beeyour, and @charisma777).
The program was encouraged and funded by @coolguy123 who is a really cool guy and also got his awesome friends to join the trail. We are now up to 18 people trailing our votes on @steemauto.
The reason I am pointing this out is to show how it works in a real situation and let you see the benefits to not only us and the newbie, but to the community as a whole (by keeping great talent motivated).
Here is a success story and the comment made by @beekerst after I congratulated him on his "big" $60.00 post:
Thanks To All Of Us At #newbieresteemday
These Are The Trails That Made The Difference
@simplymike @coolguy123 @randomwanderings @beeyou @samiwhyte @ilovepoorpeople @upclass @zelenicic
He May Have Given Up If Not For The Encouragement
His Last Three Posts Just A Few Days Later
We Now Have 18 Followers Trailing Our Curation Trail (in just 12 days)
Congratulations To Everyone At #newbieresteemday
This is a big pat on our backs and is a perfect illustration of how we can help the whole community. It is not only our members that are helping, but we are also getting help from others as you can see! Thank you all so much and again congrats on a job well done!!!
No way am I adding 100+ members to the weekly recap! Lol, but I am happy there are more members that are helping out behind the scenes.
I knew @beekerst would do well when I first saw his post. He takes the time to writing a great post and it shows. I can never do the things he share with us on his DIY projects but I enjoy reading about it. I’m very glad he started using our hashtag #newbieresteemday and we were able to help him get off with a good start. Very good start!!
I hope we will be able to support many many more newbies on here. Not just the ones starting out but the newbie members that are helping with our initative as well. Not everyone are content creators. We have to find a way to support all involved.

And I agree that we should also keep our members in mind when we do different things... That's why I've expanded the newbie nickel too! Also you have a secret about an upcoming game, so I think that is another way we can show our token of appreciation! Love that you fight for truth and justice, you always on the side of the "good guy"!

Oh, this is so nice to read, especially the success story of @beekerst.
Making it to top 10 posts as a minnow will always be a cherishing moment and I am happy that there is my little contribution in that and a small contribution to the whole of #newbieresteemday.
A vote of 0.5 SBD is not a bad one for someone new to Steemit.
Happy with the progress of #newbierestemday and happy for the members who are getting benefited as part of this.
Appreciate all the efforts in making this one such a successful one.

Yes, I agree @coolguy123. The @newbieresteemday account you helped to create give newbies the motivation to continue writing. The vote we can give our newbies is great! I remember making pennies on my few posts. I gave up. I couldn’t do it alone and moved to our beeyou team. It is very hard to keep trying when no one notices.
Your support with the account gives our newbies the chance to get noticed.

Anytime @beeyou, I can see the happier faces because of this initiative.
Same with me, I use to use esteem app with the hope of getting some 0.02 upvote from their team and that was like a random vote, sometimes we use to get that and sometimes not.
But, with this initiative, we are giving assured vote and also it's of way bigger than the one we use to receive, that is awesome!!

One day there will be others that join you (from the top) once they see how effectively this model works.

For sure it is the positive energy that inspires us to keep building and growing this community.

when we first started we kept the "founding member" role loosely defined for a purpose. In reality when we started it was just an idea, but it takes many to make it a reality. So it was mudcat36's idea, but it is all of the people you see today (including you) that are the "founders" of the actual initiative. We will cut off the point at which someone can be a founding member, but until we slow down and stop innovating, its hard to make that call yet!
Plus @beeyou is like an eagle that keeps an eye on such contributions each of us make, and her judgement in efforts people are making help to shape what is and is not a "founder". So this is a long way of saying, that you were new a few weeks ago... but now your as old as all of us are! Its your initiative as much as mine or @beeyou's ... so feel free to consider yourself as one of our founders. We do!

It's nice to support this and couple of other initiatives by other members. Though I am not able to spend much time on each of them with comments and other activities, I am supporting those by providing the upvotes on quality posts and other group owners feel I have something to contribute in that way and I am happy for that considering the limited time because of my blogging and now extensive commenting and then supporting family.

I think it's a great idea @bashadow. Great way to get our name out there too. People will know we're not a bot and the upvote will be more meaningful! A person (you) is truly taking the time to read their comment. It's way better than a simple 'upvote' that might go unnoticed.
I will be sure to add what you're doing to the next weekly recap. So people would know what it means when you (or anyone from our team) make a comment about being upvoted!
We are only upvoting valuable comments, of course. No comment spams will be rewarded. ;)
btw, Asher has a great post about comment spams, people upvoting comments like 'nice post', 'great', and so on. Interesting read with the amount of spam comments that get upvoted by the 'same people'. I'm not into analytics but I found it interesting enough to show it to my teammate Mello, who enjoyed it greatly.

I actually try to be careful about the comment upvotes i give. I don't like bots to begin with, and spam is only okay when it comes in a can, and you have a barbeque handy to make a spam sandwich,(they are quite tasty). And I like to see nice comments, real comments, tiny nice post, nic pic, vote 4 me, Sometime if I am bored I will try to explain that what they are doing is wrong, most times I just move to the next post. After all, I have real votes to give to real people. ;-} <---- (my favorite smiley)

Just answer them in German, I mean it is not that hard to right click and pick "Translate to English" at least not for me, and i think just about all web browsers offer that now. Start the response with something like, "To continue reading in English, right click and select translate to English, as I have a difficult time typing in English." One line and simple explanation. The curious will learn.
You could make it fun also and see if they actually did translate ... reply with thank you for a small treat .... If they reply you know they translated it, and read your response The treat can be anything, a vote, a response on one of their post, a resteem of one of their post, or a small wallet gift to them.

Hi @davemccoy thanks for this, I'm still struggling to get into the swing of things. As I mentioned in a comment on another post, my life is too hectic and I need to make some adjustments, it's difficult but trying to figure it out.

Hi there @leighleigh! I think burn out can be a 'woman's curse'..we are always trying to do everything for everyone..classic people-pleaser stuff. In the end, take care of yourself first and everything else will follow. There is such a steep learning curve on here; I had a table full of sticky notes, lined paper, stuff all over. After about a month, everything fell into place; I'm still learning new things daily, but I don't feel so overwhelmed anymore. Just do what you can; like @davemccoy said, you're coming from a good place! Cheers:)

I know this is not really the right place to ask. But as I'm kind of stuck finding answers to my questions about curation I just give it a try.

Do you know the answers?
Any advice in general what the best way is to get these kind of questions answered?

@bashadow is right, no worries as we are here to help.. He would know about this than me, but if that don't do it then keep asking... We will work together to get answers. And ps... I'm just now getting into curation... I know one guy that has also been studying it is @royaleagle... He's a bot expert and has recently been diving into curation.

I left two links on your post, the second from @miniature-tiger is most like the most useful of the two for you. If you have any questions feel free to post it on any of my newberesteemday post. I make my post generally on sundays. If I can not find an answer I will try to find someone that can answer, or resteem you question post.

Aww @davemccoy this whole post makes my heart warm...and I read thru the comments and feel really amazing. What a great thing you and @mudcat36 started...who knew that after so little time, it would be like this??!! It's great to see the effects of this initiative; that someone (@beekerst)was ready to give up, and got the hope and encouragement needed to continue! I'm so happy to be a part of this..the momentum alone is contagious and I'm sure more and more will be climbing aboard! Great job my friend!

I totally agree with you, and appreciate how you included Brian in there...you really are pretty thoughtful! I think that @newbieresteemday will continue to grow and be amazing. I was just reading a post from @taskmaster today where he was talking about the power of whales and I told him about our initiative because I think in the not too distant future, this group of minnows will really be a positive collective force :)

I agree completely... We have an awesome caring bunch that naturally has what it takes to not only survive, but thrive here. I don't know what will be the spark to make it go faster or if it will be a steady progression higher, but I know that I can count on teammates like you to be there always! The whale community is surely inundated with massive amounts of pleas for help, but I have confidence that one day someone will notice and then its really off to the races!!!
I appreciate everything you do for us and also for your strength with everything going on... I know you and Brian have won over many hearts and you have made many friends (including me).
Keep up the awesome attitude and you can take a beach break every so often (just don't tell me so I won't be jealous) ;)

Thank you so much Dave, I consider you my friend too, as does Brian as well. When I disappear for a day here and there, it's my personal strength as well as my voting strength that I am trying to upload:) Those days when I get to the ocean, by myself because it's sometimes just too much for Brian, and float on my back in the water, I can really let go of every stress and anxiety I have and come home renewed and refreshed. It really is a godsend...and I will keep telling you about my beach time in the hopes that you eventually smarten up and take a holiday :)

It's pretty amazing for sure; sometimes scary though. The water and waves here, like any ocean I guess, are pretty powerful. We had a near drowning escapade in Cancun once where I managed to pull Brian to safety. It was really terrifying, but a good thing to learn too. Never, ever, think that you've got the upper hand over Mother Nature:)
I just re-read this and thought to myself, "well now, that doesn't sound too relaxing anymore" haha

Hi there :) I got a question.. How does the newbieresteem day work? And the top ten things? I'm sorry I'm just quite confused because its the first time ive read about it 😅 are there any other posts related this? I would love to read it :D
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Its a great question. There is a lot of posts that have information but none that summarize exactly what we do because it is an evolving situation. We started less than 40 days ago and now have morphed into quite a few areas of support.
The whole concept behind #newbieresteemday is that we are a group of people that support the idea of helping the newbies to get through their first 30 days. We have all spent time and effort trying to learn and getting somewhat dejected when our posts got 0.03 and 1 upvote.
So we are each finding ways to help those newbies to get past the hurdle and understand better how this platform works. We started with just one simple tool and that was our "resteems" since we all had no other power. So we have had modifications of that concept to be #minnowmondays #minnowfridays #saturdaynitespotlight as well as the original resteemer posts that still appear. We also have one "tag-lifter" that just resteems from our feed.
In addition, we have set up a games account @newbiegames that is launching tonight and that will bring our gamemakers under one roof so that the newbies can learn how to interact and earn while having fun.
We also have recently launched a @newbieresteemday curation account that has people tailing our votes so that the "top 10 newbies of each day" get recognized with a decent upvote (currently $0.31) because of the trail from people wanting to help the newbies get started.
We also have a weekly program called Dear Dawne, where a professional steemit mentor answers questions and helps newbies and minnow alike with ways to improve their posts, make new connections, or simply anything they would like to know.
In the future we plan on pairing up newbies and mentors so that we can increase the "one on one" aspect and really make a difference directly. So you ask a very good question about how to know more about #newbieresteemday initiative, and while this is the answer today it will change in a week! lol :)
If you would like to follow up on what we are doing and stay as current as possible, you should follow the updates from @beeyou called "The Weekly Buzz"... Here is a link the the latest version (click here)
I hope this helps you and you have just made the next edition of "Asked and Answered"... This is where I take a really good question that I get and use it to spread the answer to others. In this way we can disseminate ideas and help others to learn in a viral way! Thank you so much for asking the question and if you have any more please let me know!

Ohhh that's super cool! I actually know about the newbieresteemday iniative because i was featured once i think but since i became a little inactive cuz of being a little disappointed i've been missing alot. thanks for answering! Im really glad u took the time to reply me. This is a really cool thing you're doing right here, i am really happy that this has been slowly evolving into something better. Im gonna be checking out all the thingds you've said hope it helps me to become a better writer as well!
I actually have another question haha
I read about the newbieresteem tag? And looked around and saw posts using that tag, is that tag gonna be used by the newbies so they can spread their posts on more wider audience or something?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

hey @jysui...don't get disappointed please! I just started in mid-December and found @davemccoy and am now also a part of the initiative. It can be tough staying motivated sometimes when you work so hard on a post and nothing comes of it. I was the same, and truthfully a lot of my posts still are not big earners. But that's ok, because by becoming a part of the #newbieresteemday group, and joining our Discord channel, you always have someone to talk to, ask questions of etc. In the end, the relationships I'm creating are way more important to me than the money I'm making (or not making haha) on my posts.
I also do a lot of commenting on others' posts because it's a really good way to get yourself known and become a member of the steemit community as a whole; and by commenting, I mean genuine commenting or adding value to others' posts. It makes a huge difference and people really do get to know you then. I always compare it to moving to a new town, preparing to throw a really good party, one that took you hours to do, and then no one shows up. That's how you can feel when you write blogs that no one sees. But, it you go out in that new community of yours and make friends by talking to them and showing interest in their work, then they will want to come to your house and have a look too! And you will always get that from our little, but rapidly growing, #newbieresteemday family:) Cheers!

If you ever do a contest or game, we also have another channel that is just opening up called #newbiegames... feel free to also use it too (for games/contests/challenges) :)
