Minnow University // Steemit Contests!
When I first started in June I joined the Steemit Open Mic Contest every week.
I was able to meet other members of the music community, make new friends in my niche, and gain followers.
It also gave me a goal each week and helped boost my creativity.
It wasn't about trying to win the contest, it was about the experience of being part of the Steemit community.
Steemit contests have several benefits:
- Networking - This is a great way to interact with other Steemians and gain followers
- Contest can help you to find motivation and inspiration for content creation
- Other Steemians may notice your submission and upvote or follow you
- You might win SBD or Steem....and that's better than a stick to the eye!

As a newbie in this platfor, the first money i made on the platform is through contest. It was a small amount. But then, it was worth it. I was able to experience the joy that comes from being noticed. I started last week and i am now on reputation 30. I never said never. I continued to try in every contest and hope to be seen as helpful by the community. I know that Rome was not built in a day. I continue to learn as much as i could and then try to do the needful: make friends, socialize, have fun, and hopefully in the future- make some small bucks
Hi @isaria, Thank you a lot for your support to minnows.
Last week you upvote and resteem some of my posts and more people could see them.
With this new entry I found out some interesting contests and posts to participate. For a newby as I am, this is a lot of help.
Thanks!!
You are right@isaria
One of the best way to grow on steemit isnt only by following whales and getting there vote but by also partcipating in contest.
Sometimes we might not win that shouldnt discourage you as minnows instead get back up put more effort and juat give it you will be as big as this whales in no time.
Nice post this is a big inspiration to minnows
I love your post
nice nice remember a contest I once held via @airhawk-project, it was a blast made steemians explore different niche.
Each week we brought out new tag and steemians were expected to write around that tag.
The reward was upvote then from our community account and upvote were given out base on the audience voice, a certain percentage is set and we ensured all users got their share of the reward
The above just alight all that is needed to bring a contest to life.
Nice write-up
