The Pay It Forward Curation Contest is all about increasing exposure for undervalued high quality posts and increase the level of engagement on steemit. You can take part by entering the contest or just helping visit the entries and their featured posts. Everyone chooses their level of involvement and we appreciate the efforts of everyone who helps promote quality content on Steemit.



Make sure to check back to this post often and scroll to the end to see a list of this week's curation entries! This list is updated on a regular basis to help make it easy for you to visit the entries and help support the great content that has been curated.


How to Enter the Pay It Forward Curation Contest?

To enter the Curation Contest you will find 2 high quality blog posts written by reputation level 65 or lower steemians and then write a curation style blog post like this entry by @viking-ventures from week 16 which won a Judges Choice Award. The idea is to highlight both posts and why you thought they were high quality.

To be clear the Level 65 max is only for the bloggers who are featured, anyone may submit a curation entry.


Rules:

  • Curation Style Post that highlights your 2 featured blog posts.
  • Link to the high quality undervalued (less then $1 earnings at time of featuring) blog posts in your curation post. Keep in mind that many will follow this link and upvote so pick a post that isn't close to payout!
  • Include a link to this contest in your entry post
  • The 2 bloggers you curate need to be rank 65 or below
  • You need to comment on this post with a link to your post, this is how we track everything
  • You must Upvote and Comment on the posts you are featuring

👉👉Clarification for Quality Required for valid Entry👈👈
We are looking for Quality Original Content and that post spells out what that means. If you are new please read it.

No less then 200 words of original written content. So a single photo is fine as long as there is 200 words with it. 200 words is about 12 lines of content.
** Art posts that show at least 3 steps of progression will not need to have 200 words of content, but still attempt to explain their art. Please use some common sense here.

Posts from Parley and dmania are not acceptable.

Entry #4

Mobile users mobilize!

Though I think someone went in and did some fixes as partiko is working well now..

I believe many use a computer as well but it would be a good thing. 24/24 smartphones are used!

You are in time. Thanks for the entry and very cool to see the flashback of the old banner.

Entry #9

Thanks a lot, I wanted to make some nostalgic feeling when i was back.

Good to know my entry is valid. Cheers

Here's to another week! And I'm with @bengy on a $2 cutoff; it's still relatively low for good content.

This is my entry for this week : https://steemit.com/curation/@bengy/payitforward-week62entry-hy2ialdfy2

When I was writing the post, they were both under $1... however, when I published the post, one of them popped over it! Anyway, feel free to disqualify my entry!

Entry #3

First off thank you for paying attention to the rewards as you were finding bloggers.

The $1 isn't a hard line, just something to shoot for. $2 is maybe something we should target vs the $1. Honestly at $2 if the content is good it's pretty low in terms of rewards. As a very long time member of the community what do you think of maybe using $2 vs the current $1?

I would support the $2 limit as well @thedarkhorse / @pifc.

I think that 2 dollars would be better, whilst most new authors won't clear 1 dollar, the good ones are likely to get over that if they have been consistently decent... Or if the post that you are featuring is good!

I see that this morning the other featured post also popped over one dollar as well!
