@steemgigs Is Adding A New Feature To Help Connect #steemgigs To Steemians Who Need Them. We Will Also Promote Some Steemit Contests!

in #steemgigs7 years ago

There is becoming the need to add more features to @steemgigs. The number of #steemgigs are growing seemlessly and this is a joy to watch, thus, it is time to work hard, to keep these #steemgigs alive and the steemians offering them encouraged. 

This will take a bit of hard work but it will be fun all the way! We are looking at reaching 5,000 #steemgigs for a start and this looks like perhaps an impossible feat but it is very possible. 

As this is all community-driven, the solution is to make #steemgigs and #steemgig as popular and fun as #til once was! 

(NB: The reason for using #steemgigs or #steemgig is incase of a mis-spelling. We have the luxury of checking both tags, so that we don't miss out on any Steem Gig.)

@steemgig thus, is adding new role to its functions. Apart from re-steeming, upvoting and submitting #steemgigs to appropriate channels on discord, steemit.chat and twitter, we will be scouring steemit to look for ways, to link steemians who are looking for services to steemians who provide these services. These relationships or connections will be built in the comments, thus, stirring more engagement, new connections and community. 

This has started happening already and our precious steemit community is really helping! Earlier today, @stephen uploaded a Steem Gig and steemians rushed to the comments to direct him to a logo contest; by @richardcrill

Both posts are here:

1. SteemGigs - Graphic Design by @stephen.king989

2.  [Crowdsourced Design Contest] 200 STEEM for Logo Design by @richardcrill

Ransack the comments and notice how fast the streets of steemit can be traversed. Notice how @papa-pepper came to help @richardcrill by connecting him with @stephen.king989; who is good with graphics.


An ultimate aim of #steemgigs is to explore steemit in new ways, thus, we will be going around steemit, looking for steemians who may need help with something or in need of a service and we will leave a valid comment, mentioning respective steemians who have related #steemgigs or who may offer such service. This will require knowledge of each #steemgig available and the steemians behind them. It will also require knowledge of our steemit community in general.

Overall, this is something that requires help from the community and is a culture, that we hope to instill into our steemit community in the long run.

We now also adding the feature to support some steemit contests by re-steeming and upvoting them. It is shown in @richardcrill's post, that some contests are actually a call to get help and not simply a contest! Thus, we will be supporting these contests and mentioning steemians in the comments, who offer related #steemgigs or steemians who can potentially help. This also applies to "cry for answers" seen in many steemit posts!

@steemgigs is also a facet of #steemitisbeautiful; a cause to make steemit an ever more beautiful home! The vision is massive and aims at touching lives in reality! 

Steem has given us a reputable community of great minds; let's explore it, unravel it and exhaust it! 

Steemians needs some benefits, exclusive to them. "Why go to fiverr.com to toil for a service, when we have brothers and sisters here".

"Everyone has something to offer!"

To conclude; being that this is all community-driven, incase, you find a comments or entire steemit posts, asking questions or incase, you know of a steemian needing a service, leave us a url, username or comment and we will exhaust our steemit community, to find a steemian who can help or at least give you some directions to make things better.

1. Here is an update version of @stephen.king989: (He needed to make some EDITs) 

SteemGigs: Graphic Design (Re-post with the new steemit censorship laws applied)

These are samples of @stephen.king989's past graphic designs and digital painting:


2. Here is a recent #steemgig by @triverse, just incase, you are in need of help with writing a viral steemit post or some form of article or publication, he offers this service to us steemians, 

Article Writing, Steemgig Offer

 

Let's get to 5,000 Steem Gigs! What have you got to offer that you can post on  #steemgigs or #steemgig?


@luzcypher is looking into making a website where steemians offer their services for steem and our community's response to #steemgigs or #steemgig, will add to the feedback that he needs!

Incase you have links to your steem GIGs, kindly drop us a comment here or:

Great post! I was quite amazed at how fast I was pointed in the direction of the logo contest (within two minutes from multiple people).

Thank you for the promotion! It's a shame I had to make those "edits" though.

Resteemed.

Yes, it is. I felt bad about that really! But it's cool how you quickly moved on.

Thanks for the support, I'm looking forward to seeing this pan out. Trying to figure out what I can offer to help grow this thing.

Your support will be so so so valuable. However, if you want to create a #steemgig and no thoughts are coming forth, you can just use this guide:

It can be kept playful and fun. Too, if you have a service and need someone, leave us a comment and we will mention a steemian who can help. this can also be a question about steemit or things you don't understand.
