Low Competition, High Average Payout Steemit Categories for 2017-12-19

If you're looking for post ideas, it's good to look for primary post tags that pay well,
but don't have that many other posts that will compete with your post.
(NOTE: this was published earlier today on SteemThat.)
That way, your post ranks higher (and for a longer time).
Of course, you want to make sure your post is a good fit with the category tag before posting.
I've split these tags into two sets, each sorted by
- Total posts in the category (under 500, 500-999)
- Average SBD/Post as % of the overall median
- Minimum 125% of median SBD/post (61.65 SBD/post)
