Introduction
Hive Contests index is an idea that I have been thinking about for a while. I wish there could be a place to access all active contests on Hive. This would make it easy for anyone to participate and get creative. Right now, the only way to search for contests is through the contest tag which is not always easy. But a post containing most if not all active contests would be nice and helpful to contest hunters. That is what gave birth to Hive Contests index.
So basically each Saturday, I will publish as many contest links as I could find with a brief description of what the contest is all about and the rewards. This way, anyone could at a glance see what active contests there are and decide if they would like to participate. This is the very first edition of Hive Contests index - so its #1. Before we move on, is it worth participating in contests?
Why join contests?
There are many reasons why joining Hive contests regularly is a nice thing to do. Check out the following three reasons:
- Make new friends: Whether you are new or old on Hive, contests provide a way to connect to other Hive users. It is easy to discover new friends by reading their contest entry and checking out a comment they made on your contest entry.
Contests provide a way to learn about the contests organizers, sponsors and participants. The more contests you join, the more new people you will likely discover. That could lead to enduring connections and friendships.
Build engagement: Engagement is important to every content creator. Contests provide a way for you to make meaningful comments on other users entries. Such great comments could lead to nice conversations. Before long, you could start visiting other users posts and also attract others to your blog page. The more you interact with other users that joined a contest, the more you build a great audience for your blog page.
Earn upvotes: Most contests require participants to publish a post. When you do, there is that possibility that you will receive votes from the community. So earning votes from your contest post is another good reason to join contests.
Earn contest rewards: Each contest has a form of reward for its winners. It could be HBD, Hive, hive power delegation, votes, Hive L2 tokens, etc. The more one participate in contests, the better chances they have to win rewards.
Note on how to win contests: There are only two things to do to win contests. (1) Put in your best efforts. (2) Read the contests rule and follow all of it.
As you participate in the contests to be listed below and others, I wish you the very best of results. This publication would be made every Saturday.
