SteemTrail: Beta Release Is Picking Up STEEM
Beta Release Update
SteemTrail Update
The past few days SteemTrail has received overwhelming support from the steemit.com community. We currently have 27 curators dedicated to SteemTrail that cover 55 main category/tags on the steemit.com platform. We are adding new category/tags daily and soon will be implementing sub-category/tags for our curators to grow. Our posting channel, SteemTrail Beta Posts, has been getting many posts submittals over the past few days. Right now, SteemTrail is averaging 15-20 upvoted posts per day. Our goal over the next two weeks is to grow this amount to 30-40 posts being curated and upvoted each day. We will be going live with SteemTrail after this two week beta period.
Curation Category Team Growth
As stated earlier, our curation team is growing daily at a very quick rate. With this growth, I have found it necessary to implement how-to guides and curator guidelines to assist in training our new curators. Here are a few of the early releases that have been pinned to our main chat channel SteemTrail Chat.
- Getting Started with SteemTrail
- SteemTrail Guidelines
- SteemTrail Incentives
- The SteemTrail Curators Guide
We are putting together tools to assist our curators as well. The tools will consist of content checks for authenticity, managing post selections for upvotes, and tracking of selected post.
SteemTrail.com
Steemtrail is currently working on a website that incorporates these tools and will have a curator section for each category/tag. We plan to implement curation trail registration, and have a management section to properly place STEEM Power holders into appropriate groupings.
We have many other features to be implemented in the future. This is a good base to get this project off to a great start from a management perspective. The future is very exciting.
Current Snapshot of the Curation Team
We have encouraged each team member to announce the category/tag(s) they will be growing for the steemit.com community. So, be on the lookout of every team members post. Below is the list of our current team and the category/tag(s) they will be growing.
How To Join SteemTrail
SteemTrail is open for everyone to contribute and enjoy. It is your project!
You may join us by going to our SteemTrail Chat and announcing the category/tag(s) you wish to curate and grow. We have several documents pinned to assist you with getting started. Of course, if you have any questions, we will be more than happy to answer them.

Happy to contribute with this.
@opheliafu Thank you for contributing!
I'd love to contribute as a curator but I really don't focus on any one or two topics. I like finding hidden gems across the board. But as a curator on Streemian (currently with no one on my trail to be perfectly honest) how does Steem Trail differ?
Great work everyone!
It will be interesting to see how STEEM trails curation differs from some of the other curator groups out there in STEEMlandia. I look forward to seeing how it develops over time. And reading the curated posts of course.
Indeed! I'm expecting synergy between the different projects. Will be a lot of fun to watch everything come together.
Such a cool idea. :)
