Steem Representative Weekly Report #22 from [18th Sept-1st Oct, 2024]
Steem greetings @everyone from the motherland-Cameroon and welcome to my blog as I present my 22nd report as the Steem Representative.
It is yet another week of work with heads high while trying to scale a balance. It has been an amazing opportunity to participate in some of the engagement challenges with diverse topics and also a learning opportunity for me.
That said, below I will be talking about the different activities carried out across the platform within the above-stated period of time.
Steemit Promotion.
Facebook is one of the platforms I used to promote steem but unfortunately, there are lots of scammers on Facebook. It makes it difficult to gain the trust of my Facebook followers to sign up because they believe anything that has to do with cryptocurrency is fake. Most of them I approached were once victims of cryptocurrency scams on Facebook.
It was not different this week as I use the old strategy of promoting Steemit via my WhatsApp status. Notwithstanding, the often-asked question by almost all new users I approached still resurfaces “…Are votes guaranteed because I cannot waste my time on something that will not bring money”. This makes steem promotion very difficult but we keep preaching for one never knows who will end up signing up.
I equally carried out a face-to-face talk within my neighbourhood. No one showed interest in signup but I strongly believed that one day, they might have a change of mind.
Activities in Steem Cameroon Community.
I launched a new dynamic to allow participants to share their goals and how they planned to achieve the goals before the end of the year. The price of the contest was 15 SP.
It is a routine that every week we meet online and discuss how to better manage the community. We agreed to keep on with the existing contests while trying to develop new contest ideas. We also discussed having a meeting with old and new inactive Cameroonian steemians and trying to pull everyone along. We believe “…we are stronger together”.
During this period, we were lucky to register a newbie from Cameroon with the username @emannuel237.
As a plagiarism leader and actively fighting all forms of abuse on the community, I had to ensure that content creators create quality content free from any form of abuse on steemit. No abuses of content was recorded. We hope steemians continues to be creative in ideas and create plagiarized free content and proper use of non-copyrighted images.
I also caution steemians about clicking on phishing links and operating 3rd party DApps. This is because they risk losing their Steemit accounts to hackers. I also informed them about “account recovery” within 30 days if not they stand to lose the account to hackers.
Content Creation.
It was a busy week for me as usual but I still managed to stay active. I created a total of 10 posts with 6 currently active and 4 already paid out. Below is a screenshot of the active posts from Steemworld.
Support Other Content Creators with @chant Account.
I used my effective Steem power of over 54k to support steemians with quality content on the platform.
I did power up some liquid Steem to increase my steem power and supported other content creators for their hard work on the platform.

Preference was given to authors writing creative and quality articles across the platform. Over the week, I reached out to 73 accounts and upvoted 92 posts with a CSI score of 11.8.
Community Curation
It was a lucky month for me as my team was selected for the community curators program. I had to guide the other two members of the team on how we gonna work effectively. I prepared a Google sheet where we will input data for our weekly reporting. Today was my first day of curating and it all went well.
At this juncture, I have come to the end of my presentation of my weekly activities report.
