How To:Write Your First Steem gigs Post

If you're not sure how to format your post for a Steemgig, here are some guidelines. Many of us are working behind the scenes to make Steemgigs successful, so following these simple steps will help us, which in turn will help you.

Please use the word, 'STEEMGIG' as the first word in your post title.

Example title for someone wanting to find paid work:

STEEMGIG: I Can Create Photocollages For You In Exchange For 10 Steem

Please notice how these titles are specific. Do not make your titles vague! If I can't understand what your are offering, then no one will bother reading your post. THIS IS A KEY POINT. Make your message clear and concise. Using too many words, is just confusing, no one has time to figure out your meaning! No one can read minds.

CLEAR TITLES ARE IMPORTANT!

Use the Steemit tag: steemgigs as your very first tag for your post. You need to have it as your first tag because other applications that we use are programmed only to collect the first tag. If you use steemgigs as your second tag, your post won't be collected. This is important.

Show off your work, in picture form, or description. Post links to your professional pages, websites, and use customer testimonials. Explain exactly what you are offering or what you are wanting to pay for.

If you're a new Steemit user, you would be wise to start forming friendships in here. People will not trust you if you're not connected to others. That's how it works in here. Build up your relationships, comment on other people's posts, and help out as much as you can. This will show people that you are a valuable member of Steemit, not just a user.
