Introducing PhotoFeed - The Premier Steemit Photo Featuring Project
PhotoFeed is a project spear-headed by @jrue, @aweber, @yumyumseth and @cryptoctopus that aims to improve the experience of those who want to see beautiful professional photography on steemit.com
If you are a professional photographer, you are probably frustrated by the #photography tag at this point. The main reason we've found that the photography tag falls flat is that nearly every post, regardless of the topic, includes the photography tag. Essentially, browsing the photography tag is useless.
While we wait for the future developments that will make the experience on the steem blockchain more pleasant, the @photofeed project is moving forward to provide a solution immediately while building solutions for the future.
Our solution has 4 parts:
- Launching the #photofeed hashtag
- Having a powerful curation trail that is profitable for everyone
- Weekly round-up post to increase the exposure and share the rewards with great artists
- Getting ready for communities as well as a possible app down the line
How to Participate
- Join our curation trail at steemauto.com
- Post your high quality photography using the #photofeed hashtag
- Get rewarded for your good work!
Incentives
@PhotoFeed has the backing of @cryptoctopus and he is sponsoring this initiative with his vote. To maximize participation and curation rewards for others, he will upvote 30 minutes after we do. If you upvote before we do (and @cryptoctopus), not only will you help people find good photography but you will also make a profit doing so!
Plans for the Future
The community feature should come within the next few months, opening much needed improvements in the discoverability of content while allowing for better moderation. With the support of @cryptoctopus, we will bootstrap a PhotoFeed community that empowers amateur and professional photographers to share their art.
An app/website and/or a Smart Media Token specialized for high quality photography is not out of the question either but we will wait until we have a better understanding of the technology landscape before we move forward with these ideas.
Get involved!
- If you’re a photographer, use #photofeed as a tag. We’ll look at every photo posted there.

I'm following back and I'm sharing the content of followers organically. My account for following back is:@followback
Geri Takibe Geri Takip Yapıyorum ve takip edenlerin içeriklerini, organik olarak paylaşıyorum. Geri Takip İçin Hesabım: @followback
That is a great idea. Photography tag is definitely overused too much and it's not very relevant to the content it's used on. Hopefully, photofeed tag will have great success and a lot of great photographers will get rewarded for their hard work! Cheers.
good man!!
Put it to use today , I’m really exited for this new project . Wishing you guys the best
THANK YOU.
Jesus Christ, I was so impressed with Steemit at first, but this exact thing has been killing it for me. I don't mean to be rude, but your froyo snap with your iPhone 4 isn't what I wanna browse when I'm in Photography
This is a step in the right direction! Will post there frequently
agreed @greatheights.
Haha too true!
Lol,but i thought we are here to here to help each other grow....
Exciting plans! Looking forward to seeing this in action.
Nice post
Awesome project, I'll definitely be using this to showcase my photography works from my travels around the world :)
Great Idea, i will follow it :D
Sky is the limit. thankx
