SteemTrail - @richardcrill is Starting to Curate for SteemTrail

in steemtrail •  8 years ago  (edited)

StreemTrail is a project aiming at organizing curation teams to manage and grow categories on steemit.com. Some important goals are an improved new user experience and increased retention rate on the platform. We can expect organic growth of each category. A full introduction to SteemTrail can be found here.

@instructor2121 has moved forward quickly and effectively with this project, namely releasing category trails: SteemTrail Phase Two: Category Trails Released. 3 days ago and then the SteemTrail: Beta Release earlier today.

I will be submitting posts belonging to the Cannabis/Marijuana/SteemFest/Travel/Love/Philosophy categories to the curation trail, starting immediately.

My main goal is to help quality content that has gotten buried in those catagories get the upvotes they need to start getting more recognition. This is how we can help user retention.

My second goal is to help grow the catagories I'm curating that don't have as much posting volume at the moment by being of assistance to new content producers in these topics. We can give pointers to steemit users that have the makings for good posts but need some guidance on proper verification, formatting of text, sourcing of photos, and referencing sources of information.

If you are interested in submitting to any of these channels or helping curate SteemTrail contact me - @richardcrill on steemit chat or find me or @instructor2121 in the steemtrail chat channel.

If you want to be considered for this curation trail, and for SteemTrail support at large, please make sure that your posts comply with the following recommendations:

  • Make it easy for us to verify that you own the content or have the rights for the pictures used;
  • If you use external content make sure you provide appropriate and verifiable references and credits to the sources (this applies to texts, pictures, videos, etc). When sources are not cited, we will assist you with adding that information to post. We will not vote until this is done.
  • Only use relevant tags.

If you need help with formatting and sourcing, you can also visit the steemprentice channel on steemit chat.
Thanks for your support!
