How To: Weekly - Starting again, 25th March!

We're back!

Re-introducing ourselves - more streamlined and open to more topics on a dedicated page! This time around we have rules in place to keep the competition fair and balanced.

Please read this post as rules have changed.

A NEW contest to show the Steemit world what you are made of, so others can make it!

Do you have a ‘How To’ you would like to share with your fellow Steemit members?

Are you a master at your craft and wish to share how you created, cooked, fixed or renovated it? Well, we have decided to hold this weekly contest to help you do so and earn some SBD.

‘How To: Weekly’ is a weekly contest to showcase your creativity and knowledge. By sharing your talents, you have the potential to win Steem Backed Dollars and gain new followers, supporters and upvotes from readers. Each week will be open topic, unless otherwise stated.

Who can enter?

Anyone on Steemit can enter this contest, however, all entries must be written in English and must be original content created by yourself. This is to showcase your knowledge and talent on this platform.

---

What can we enter?

You must enter your own original content and images in the form of a step-by-step 'How To' guide.
No, cut and paste entries from the internet or any Google images.
Please do not combine your entry with another competition. For example, in the past we had entries tagged with photography competitions.

If cheetah or we discover that you have plagiarised something from the internet, the entry will be void. You must not enter the same ‘How To’ week after week.

All entries are to be text and image based. No videos (at this stage).

How do we enter and what tags do we use?

Your title should look something like these examples:

or
How to fix something: How To: Weekly contest by (and your @username)

The tag #howtoweekly must be used so we can find your entry easily. If your entry is not tagged or titled correctly, your entry will be void.

Does it matter how we present the entry?

Yes, absolutely. Please make it clear, concise and readable, but most of all, easy to follow for your readers. One or more clear images must be used with a step-by-step guide. Please do not beg to win or send any form of spam, this will void your entry. Your entry can be any length it requires, so long as it conveys the message you are trying to send in full.

---

Can we enter more than once each week?

Yes! However, only one entry per topic. If you have more than one topic to share, enter in the next weeks contest and so on.

---

Can we win more than once in the week?

Absolutely yes! If you have entered more than one entry over different topics you can win more than once that week. There are 3 tiers 1st, 2nd and 3rd place that is judged from all entries received that prior week.

Will this weekly contest be ongoing and will it be the same topics each week?
