eSteem (@eSteemapp) is the first mobile client for the Steem blockchain and further developed PC app to surf the Steem blockchain with superb features. eSteem products are open-source, it is the 9th most used Dapp on the Steem Blockchain with over 41,000 monthly transactions and over 1,900 unique users per Steemapps.
eSteem is one of the main frontends to browse the Steem blockchain posts and interact with other users. Having their app available for PC and Mobile (Windows, Linux Mac, Android and iPhone), eSteem apps are Steem Apps that can help us take the Steem Blockchain mass adoption process to the next level.
The purpose of this contest is to encourage Steemians to create a video speaking about the advantages of using eSteem to browse the interacting part of our blockchain, how can a Steemian blog, comment and vote on eSteem and in your own words, why is eSteem is the best Steem Frontend out there.
Why is the @steemonboarding team making this @blocktrades sponsored contest in partnership with @eSteemapp?
Easy. We want to feature that video on our website so, people from all over the world can know about eSteem and its multiple features vs the other frontends and most importantly, vs other social media platforms.
The Steem ecosystem is growing at an exponential rate, and the eSteem DApp/Frontend is one of the reasons the blockchain is reaching more people every day.
We need a video that we can show our grandma and she can completely understand what eSteem is, why it's a groundbreaking Dapp, how does it work, and every other detail about it.
Create a Video speaking about @eSteemapp and win three 75% votes from @Blocktrades
The video must:
- Be in english with a good pronunciation and grammar.
- Not be longer than 5 minutes.
- Include visual aid. The most visually appealing and explicit the video is, the better. A new user will appreciate a video that uses screen recording or screen captures of the @esteemapp interface (Mobile or PC Surfer).
The video must include the next topics:
- Introduction:
- What is eSteem? Very important to mention its connection to the Steem blockchain and how it works as an interface to browse it.
- Points of contact: Website, Steem username, discord etc. Make it very simple, don't confuse the viewer.
- Body
- How does eSteem work? Don´t go too much into detail, but be thorough about the who, how and where can someone start using eSteem. Explain the process of downloading eSteem on your device and start blogging. There are different download processes but, if the explanation is done correctly, every user, no matter the device, will be able to download and start using it. Don´t go into too many details about this, just explain the process.
- Advantages of using eSteem and connect to the Steem Blockchain, if there are any pros in user friendliness, interface and user experience versus other social media websites like FB, IG etc, mention them without mentioning these other Social media's.
- Benefits of browsing the Chain using eSteem. What does the eSteem community and user experience offer the Steem user. Remember this video will be featured alongside other Steem Frontends, so mentioning any selling points to make the user adopt eSteem instead of any of the others, is key.
- Give a big mention to the eSteem community, one of the best features of the eSteem frontend is their discord and on chain community.
- Conclusion:
- You know eSteem. Close the video with some of the best arguments you can come up with, to make people start using eSteem and adopt the Steem Blockchain... if they are not part of the Steem Blockchain, this closing part should encourage them to create an account and start using Steem and it's different DApps.

Most importantly, thank you guys for making it happen, without your daily efforts to keep eSteem as one of the top dApps with an amazing community this contest wouldn't even exist! You the MVP here
Thank you for the organizers of the contest and of course to @good-karma and the @esteemapp team. My little question is: How do we upload videos? Is it through Youtube channel or can it be done with DTube or is there another way? Because there is no explanation in the post.
Thanks a million ^^
You can embed videos on the eSteem post editor so it's just a matter of uploading the video somewhere else and then including it in your entry post :)
Being a long @esteem user loved to take up the challenge. .....have a concerned about the tags...is it #eblocktradescontest ? We have extra "e"this time...

Thanks fur mentioning it haha, I'll change it!
I must post using esteem but how I can upload video with esteem ?
Posted using Partiko Android
The esteem apps support link embedding, so all you have to do is upload to YouTube and embed a link in the post edition :D
Ok :)
Posted using Partiko Android
Can I add this on DTube too ?
Posted using Partiko Android
Sure, I don't see why not, as long as the entry posted on steem includes written information and the posts are different, so it doesn't seem as double posting the same content.
this is a very interesting contest. because it can introduce esteem to many people. What's more, I often use esteem to make posts. but I lost 1 requirement. that is speaking English. I can not speak English. maybe I'll wait for another contest.

You type this comment in English.
No excuses.
Give it a try.
