Weekly Report as Steem Representative, January 2nd to January 8th, 2025

Hi, all fellow Steemians,

Good morning from India.

I can say I am having a great time with Steem rates, and Steemit friends even if I am not redeeming Steem, but I am happy for fellow Steemians. I am sure they are enjoying their time at different exchanges trading and making money. As far I am concerned, I am busy with my upcoming project in the next few weeks.

On Steemit front, I started another contest in Travel Steem community.

Contest: Tourist Attraction Photography Contest

Once again, this week was a routine type because I was busy offline, yet everything went smoothly. As I said, I have now finalized all terms and conditions for my next project in Australia starting February 2025, but it looks as if the program will be delayed by a few weeks.

On learning season, it was a little different from last week because this I found one to participate in.

SLC S22 Week 3 - Herbal Medicine for Men's Hormonal Health

I am busy offline, but I posted at least one post every day. I see everything is normal apart from a few newcomers approaching me with their problems of not getting the approval or asking different questions.

I am proud to announce once again that I supported as many newbies as I could through various methods, including setting them as beneficiaries in my posts every week, which helps them stay positive. I always vote for the best posts according to their quality and support them in my capacity as moderator and Steem Representative.

As usual, my online or offline activities did not stop me from visiting and finding promising authors from the newcomers' community and selecting my quota of two of the best, under 50 rank, irrespective of their club status, communities, and countries.

As always, I spent time with a couple of newbies on their or my posts. I feel like more and more newbies are getting in touch with me, and that's heartwarming when they are among them as they approach me.

I give you another example here

My Newbie Program

A New Initiative to help newbies

I supported two more newbies, keeping them as beneficiaries in my different posts. As I always mention, I will keep supporting newbies because my "Newbie Support Program is working well, and I feel good when I see newbies feel motivated and respond happily through their comments.

My selected users

As a routine, I selected the first "newbie," the first beneficiary of the week, @maira27

I selected her for this post:

Achievement 1 : My Steemit Introduction Post|@maira27

Here is my post,

1 Picture 1 Story Week #68

As usual, I am writing a message on the selected posts, and some of them understand the meaning of my message, so they feel happy and respond positively because they feel someone cares for them.

I posted a comment on this post, and she responded immediately.

My second newbie beneficiary is @kasun-chamikara

For his post

Achievement 1: My Introduction post to steemit

Here is my post:

WITH ALL SENSES? And what about HUMANITY?

A message on that post, whom I have set as beneficiaries in this post:

He responded and followed.

I completed my weekly duty as moderator, which took a lot of my time, but I found more travel posts and diary posts compared to last week. I guess we need to give them an idea about travel so they post their travel experiences with a different perspective.

I thought I needed to give them another creative idea in the travel section that encourages them to think and write in my new contest. My goal is to generate innovative contest writing in the travel genre that makes things better for me and my community.

I am trying to help newbies understand how Steemit can grow them in stature, by accessing information, connecting with others, and exploring hobbies.

Here is a screenshot of part of that conversation-

I feel if we make a team and address potential, users by providing reassurance and practical support by directing them to posts by renowned and successful Steemians at the beginning point, this will work as a class to them.

On my support front as a SR and a moderator, I am trying my best to support genuine queries by Steemians, both new and old, through various channels to guide them. For instance, this user writes regularly in Traveling Steem but was unaware how to join a club or set a beneficiary to null.

I once again show my concern about the diary section, as I reported last week. I once again bring to the kind notice of the team that most of these posts have routine activities, so I request the Steemit Team to set guidelines because most posts have nothing new but almost the same words every day, with a few changed images.

My last power-up but I still regret the mistake I committed last week by withdrawing 150 Steem, but I brought them back to my wallet and further powered up.

POWERUP & WIN WEEK 68

I am proud to announce that as an SR and a moderator, I try my best to support all good posts, but let me request the authorities once again that the SRs should get more power to support Steemians with extra voting power to talented Steemians.

My Account Summary

As usual, my CSI is in the range of 10-15, as I am supporting all who need my support and visited as many newbies as possible.

These are my regular posts.

I have posted daily, but I admit there are too few 'learning contests' in season 23 within my reach, but I posted one and am happy even if I was not in the first four.

In the end, I am doing my job without any partiality, always thinking beyond any specific country or community, and supporting everyone on the platform on an equal basis. Last but not least, thanks to all the Steemians for all they do to support me and the Steemit platform in general.

That's all for this week!

I wish you all a great time ahead.

Yours sincerely
