There are some objective factors like spelling, time spent creating the content, quality of the pictures/text/video, knowledge and expertise on the topic etc and other subjective stuff like opinion of the curator, preferences, expertise on the topic by the curator (for example I can't asses if a painting is good, but we have curators that do) and some others.
The good thing is that we have many curators focusing in finding great content for over two years now so we hope to deliver on the community's expectations.
looking for authors all over the chain (by using different tools and methods)

Experience in what? Running a social media business? Genuinely asking
Experience with curating content. That includes:
