The best way to earn tons of JAHM rewards is to make quality posts about Reggae music, Jamaica and Caribbean culture. Easy right? Sounds so simple, just find something in Jamaica to write about it and earn travel rewards. You can also share some new music, post someone else's video, copy the lyrics and write a few sentences about it. Once you make your ReggaeSteem Post, wait for those big upvotes, well it doesn't always happen like that.
That's right! Prior to today, once you made it onto the @jahm.whitelist, you automatically received up to 7 Irie upvotes a week. Not anymore. Now, every post made on ReggaeSteem, ReggaeTube or using the #jahm tag can get a very generous manual upvote from the JAHM Whitelist. I am experimenting will following curation trails and trusted people's eyes but for now, this task is solely up to my discretion.
Far too many users waste their description on a [source] (https:/qwertdfsyuiopasdfghjklzxcvbnm) it looks terrible. Please do not start your blog off with the first words being a source link.
@ocd curates the oc tag for original content. If the photos are not yours, they are not original. If the post is about something generic or popular like Why I love Bob Marley it is not original. If you haven't been there and are using Wikipedia or some other person's blog as a source, it is definitely NOT ORIGINAL. Of course, you can write about cats if you are not a cat, but make the post unique, give the reader something new.
Make us laugh, smile, entertain us or teach us something new. Grab your audience's attention. Your post has to be cool, well written or full of information. Rewording something you found on the internet is not adding value unless you are improving it or adding a significant amount of value. Sharing something even with sources does not get one an IRIE upvote unless it's new and amazing. Your posts should have a point.
Can't stress this enough. Comment on other's blogs, manually curate (upvote), Resteem, spread your name to people on and off of Steem. Engaging is networking the more you engage, the more you will be engaged.
If you only use popular tags your post will quickly be buried under 100s of other posts that use the same tag. The first 5 tags are used for Seach Engine Optimization so don't waste them on tags that don't classify your post. This post can tag 'tips', 'quality' and other unique tags as it will ensure people can easily find it in a search and will be drawn to my blog for all the right reasons. Please don't tag 8 different tribes, it probably won't pay out big in any of them.
We all make mistakes and typos. My grammar is far from perfect and sometimes the flow is terrible, we repeat words and use poor punctuation. Avoid mistakes and write as best as you can. Preview your post to make sure the links work, it looks nice and reads well. If you are practicing English keep it short and simple. Don't expect much if you rely on Google Translate for 100% of the work.
The purpose of this post and the JAHM Whitelist is to improve the overall quality of ReggaeSteem. I hope to see better trending posts and want to help you earn more Steem and JAHM. Hope you found this valuable. Good luck and may you collect many JAHM Rewards.
