Looking For Hive Bloggers To Upvote...

I have been adding to my Hive Power during the last month after the price went down so much aiming for 100k HP and I'm looking for some new accounts to put on my auto-upvote list...

The Way I See Hive.

This might not be a popular opinion, but I see Hive running on a model that is full of obvious flaws and only really partially works in most cases for a very niche core audience (like myself) who stick around. The entire upvote earnings model creates a dynamic where most of the content is only there for the earnings, and what is on the trending page has nothing to do with the best or most liked content and in most cases does not interest anyone outside (or even inside) the ecosystem.

Content discovery aslo isn't the best as curators basically need to plow through a ton of garbage in the hope to find something good. The concept of someone buying Hive and powering it up just to curate and get some rewards while they most of the time are getting dumped on by 'content creators' who earn and HBD which keeps inflating the supply like crazy, makes zero sense.

This said, I do really like what Hive brings for people who genuinely want to have a blog offering reliable free & immutable hosting with no advertisements, along with something of an audience and a way to get some earnings. It allows to connect to like-minded people and I've managed to make a lot of friends over the year, which are all things that help keep me here.

Want a Vote?

All this said, I know the struggle that comes with having a genuine Hive blog on a rather niche subject which isn't just jumping on the communities or challenges that get the upvotes. I also believe that smaller systematic upvotes are more valuable in the long run compared to having to hope for the occasional whale or curation group vote which oftentime require you to bend your content toward them.

I'm looking for accounts to put on my auto-upvote list while I have no time or willpower to start looking for them manually day-by-day. So I'm making this post in the hope to find some users who point me in the right direction or apply for themseles to be on there...

What I'm Looking For...
Basically, I'm looking for users who have a high chance of still being here active in 5-10 years and retain a good KE-Ratio. These are some of the things that I'm looking for...

A Genuine Blog: It doesn't matter what type of content you bring or topic you write about, as long as it's genuine, consistent, and with some effort put into it. I'm not looking for the next account that just yaps about Hive all the time because that gets most engagement and upvotes. Nobody who only posts or joins challenges just because there are some guaranteed curation group upvotes behind them. Simply someone who genuinely wants to have a blog about things they are passionate about and which they enjoy making (the way it should be).
Maximum 1 Daily Post: The reality is that on Hive, a 1-post-a-day routine is one of the most rewarding things, especially since most votes are automated. In reality, it is hard to constantly make 1 post a day and keep it fresh and interesting without it looking like 'cheap content' aimed mostly toward getting the upvotes. So I'm mostly looking for users who have somewhere between 1 post a week and 1 post a day.
New User Requirements: I'm looking for accounts that have been active on Hive for at least 1 full month already, and managed to get at least 10 to 20 people to press the follow button. I also won't support anyone who hasn't even been here for a year and is not building their stake but instead are already cashing out some earnings.
Older User Requirements: For those who have been here for longer, there is pretty much no excuse right now at the current Hive price to have a KE-Ratio that is much above 1. Also, I'm mainly looking for users who are underrewarded so the ones where the average total daily post payout is below 10-20x the value of their own upvote value.

What Can Be Expected!

Basically, I'm looking to support people here on Hive that meet the above requirements with part of the voting that I have adding them to my auto-upvotes list. Nothing is guaranteed, but ideally, I'm able to get a list of accounts that are good for Hive and deserve some systematic support while they are building their blog and following. It would be nice to have users apply or for some suggestions to be given for me to have a look at. I will add a link to this post also in all of my future posts so it gets a bit of continued exposure. I hope to be able to make an update next month and hopefully inspire others similar to how I'm inspired by users like @slobberchops who have a more advanced initiative like this (Link)

So please, nominate yourself or suggest good accounts that you know in the comments

Given what you’ve shared—which caught the attention of our friend @enraizar—I hope you read my fiction post tomorrow; it isn't very long. There is something good about Hive: where there is no advertising, the truth shines bright.

Have a wonderful day, afternoon, or evening.
@enraizar(71)· 2h
I think this is a great initiative; here are two accounts worth checking out:

@felixmarranz @nanixxx

And if you have time, I invite you to check out my account as well.

Best regards and thank you very much.

Well,I think I am proof it is absolutely doable to publish more than one high-quality post per day. I have been publishing programming tutorials on Steem - later Hive - since 2017 (initially Python, more recently various languages), because I have been preparing for quite some time on my forthcoming learning platform, which "AI" more or less ruined completely as many people and their grandpa can now "vibecode" anything without a need to learn programming themselves and as such I decided to publish a very large (yet slightly altered) subset of my own self-written curriculum on my Hive blog.

Learning paths covered so far: Python, Zig, Rust, JavaScript, Go (just started today) and previously "Learn AI" (not how to use LLMs but how to train your own models etc) and "Learn Ethical Hacking" (I kept it at easy mode on that one).

Anyway, cheers.

For my part, I have a bot that finds posts over 500 words written by authors with a good reputation and votes at the 3.5% level; when I have time, I review what it has voted on, and if someone tags me in a post explaining why it doesn't deserve a vote, I sometimes withdraw it.

I nominate few accounts:
- @zusi78
- @fieryfootprints
- @rozioo
- @captainquack22
- @oadissin
Everyone have their requirements and I respect that you have your own.

For me KE is not that much important when I curate other people content I looking too for their assets in games like Splinterlands, Golem Overlord, RisingStar or any other games and of course tribe tokens as well.

For now my KE is like 5+ right now but I have assets and tokens worth much more than I ever earned from blogging. I know that for many KE is really important factor and it could be decing thing with throwing votes. For me engagement is important too. If I see that someone making only posts and not make any comments for me is low effort really. Many authors like to just making post without talking with other people to know them better.

I agree with you that everyone should have their own criteria especially when you want to give autovotes which means you not check author content.

Ohh I forgot about main thing. My friend with me made a contest some time ago to introduce yourself once again on hive and we want hear from participiants who they invited to hive? That's nice to hear that too :)

So far I was able to encourage some of my old hive friends to back to the plaform - both powered their hive.
@kellyane(73)· 1d
This initiative is a great help, especially for accounts that are still growing, particularly those with really nice posts that don’t get much attention or engagement.
@emmanuel50(69)· 1d
I’d like to nominate myself, @emmanuel50. I enjoy sharing my music, shoemaking and other parts of my everyday life here on Hive. I’m still growing and building my stake, and I plan to stay here for the long term and keep growing with Hive. I’d really appreciate you taking a look at my blog.
@fieryfootprints(74)· 1d
I thought that @emmanuel50 fits your requirements. He has been on Hive since 2025 and is growing his stake instead of powering down. But then I checked and it seems that he sometimes posts twice a day.

Maybe I could fit as well? I mostly make posts about my art. Those posts often have 1 or 2 photos of my current pieces and maybe a few sentences describing my progress. So I am not sure if that counts as high enough quality. Also my current art piece is about Hive and I will still have at least 1 post about it in the future. So maybe that counts as talking about Hive all the time. I also make some long form posts as well. Usually they are about games I am playing. My KE is decent (0.43) and I plan to be here till either I will die or Hive stops working. I assume that neither of these things will happen in the next 5-10 years.😛

Also, I'm mainly looking for users who are underrewarded so the ones where the average total daily post payout is below 10-20x the value of their own upvote value.

that being said this rule may be a problem and disqualify me. Some of my posts(mostly gaming posts) earn a few dollars so they could push my average rewards above your desired averages.
@sanjeevm(78)· 1d
Good to see the middle class growing.
@kriszrokk(67)· 1d
Hive is my home blog for poems, fiction stories, and wiz drips. This is where I post all my original creative work before sharing it on legacy social channels, linking back to the blockchain. I would appreciate your support.

@yintercept(65)· 1d
I think you would do better if you just followed users and then upvoted users in your feed.

An even better way to curate is to upvote people in communities or to upvote tags taht you support.

A tribe is community that issued a token. If there is a tribe that you want to support you can purchase their tokens on HIVE Engine; you can then upvote posts that use the tribal keywords or their community account.

Actually supporting something would have a more positive impact on hive than just auto voting accounts.

This platform is already suffering enough from voting bots.

Hi, I'd like to join your positive feedback group. I've only been here a few months and it's been great. I'm constantly uploading content and learning more and more.I like what I do and I want to continue putting down roots here in Hive, greetings
@suisver(71)· 1d
Greetings, I would appreciate your support. Thank you.

Good luck finding some folks! I think this is a good idea. Might see if there are any suggestions that come in that I enjoy reading.
@blingit(69)· 2d
Thanks for the vote of confidence cryptoreforma, :-) I have also been on a quest to try and clean out my voting... ive gone the other way though, and checked people on my follow list and removed people that i decided were grifters. and turned OFF autovotes. Then every morning i upvote posts that are new on my friends list. I wish i had slobberchops lovely program that checks the account lol.

I kept a few people on the list that are huge extractors just so i can keep an eye on the current bot trends. lol.

im still going through my friends list as people come up... but either people are posting now, or they are not...

i HAVE however added the recommendations from your post into my friends list :-) :-) (The ones that i didn't already have that is)
@behiver(77)· 2d
Great initiative and truly transparent. Just need to find people putting the work as that's hard to find. :)
@niallon11(77)· 2d
If your stuck for talent feel free to throw my name on the list. 😇

I've been mostly focused on the sports side of things lately with trying to keep sportsblocks moving forward.

I don't expect upvotes from anybody but it's always nice to be considered. It's hard at the moment to find the best or most interesting content but the time isn't there that I used to have for finding it and interacting with new people.
@novacadian(66)· 2d
Would appreciate your potential auto vote.

Since purchasing a sailboat, back in 2024, my content has primarily been about living on her, with some time ashore with my Daughter and Son-In-Common-Law.

You can find a listing of the last two seasons' of sailing posts at:

This season is still current on my blog at:

Thanks for your consideration.
@slobberchops(82)· 2d
Nice going on the power-ups, I hope it does recover for your sake.

@netflixr @beaker007 @whoisjohn @behiver

Try these...
@delirius(7)· 2d
Me llamó la atención que estés apuntando a 100 k HP justo después de la caída del precio, tipo ¿creés que eso realmente impulsa la curation a largo plazo? Además, la captura del gráfico muestra cómo el trending no alinea con la calidad del contenido, lo cual parece un bug del algoritmo. No sé qué onda, pero si tenés tiempo, podrías probar con cuentas de micro‑curadores que ya tienen historial de upvotes constantes 🧐
@finpulse(77)· 2d
its good to support the authors who are committed to hive. i publish original content and also continue to grow my hp stake.
@cryptoreforma(72)· 2d
Good initiative. Although I'm not a fan of automatic voting, I understand your lack of time for research.

I'll leave you with 3 users who meet your requirements.

You can check out mine :) I try to keep the quality high (short posts I run from another account, @stayooutoftherz)
