Seriously I ve a problem with bounty managers who reject articles on the basis of 'low audience'. Because blog writing is the only campaign whose stakes are awarded subjectively, bounty managers try to cheat those participants.
You will agree with me that no one can force someone to upvote or comment on his or her blog after reading.
Comments and upvotes should be a plus for extra stakes. Those with original contents with little or no audience should be given at least something little for their efforts and not just awarding 0 stakes because reading a white paper and coming out with something unique in order to attract investors is not something easy. I hope some bounty managers will hear me out

Could you provide an example? if you link one of your creations(blog post) and maybe show the stakes received?

As a rule, all bounty managers write in the rules that if your blog does not have an audience, then you will not get any rewards. if they wrote it and you still took part, then this is your problems

The best way to avoid crying at the end is getting out of bounties with rules concerning audience view or likes. Though, some bounty managers do not state this in the rules and that's not fair to participants.

Yeah i have faced this issue as well and that is why i was discouraged and stopped writing new articles, most of my articles were accepted but some of them that were written in the same way the others were written and same time was given to them and they were unique as well and still they were rejected which ia not a good thing managers need to understand the effort put in.

Everyone finding a way to earn it big this these days, just like you trying to earn big in a bounty campaign using multiple accounts same goes for most mangers, upon the whole commissions left for them and their rewards they will still do it their way just to secure the bag with enough tokens, so don't be too worried always join bounty which managers have time to update the spreadsheet, and not those too busy type. Just saying

People can even provide fake views of their contents but no one can provide 'fake original' content. Originality should be the main factor while the audience should just earn you extra stakes ahead of other participants.

Yes, I agree, there is such a problem, and many managers put zero, and we work and work. I think there should be a more flexible content evaluation system.

I participated in uzoma bounty campaign and got zero stakes on this blog with about 30 upvotes on steemit, on the basis of 'low audience' while another blog with only 4 upvotes was given stakes. Isn't that total cheat?

While I agree with you on this but it will be more appropriate for forum members to see all the details including maybe a picture from the spreadsheet and every other necessary details. Well it depends on Bounty managers, there are different kinds of them because they all have what they are looking for in each content and they have tools they deploy in accessing the quality of the content. I think you should communicate with the Bounty manager involved to see if he can effect any change in it. Please because I know how it feels about spending close to 2 hours in writing a content of such quality and in the end you are being awarded 0 stake just like that.

I will advice you that before you make accusations, you should provide evidence to support your accusations. The fact that you are making good complains about some behaviours of some bounty managers, without proof you are just wasting your time creating a thread for it. But i don't think if your content meet their requirement, you will receive 0 stakes for it. I advise you check the rules which are usually made by bounty managers considering content aspect of the bounty.

In situations like this you need to work on yourself
If your articles get no likes, it means it is not unique or you target the wrong audience

When writing articles, your tagged section should correlate with the project idea

Before agreeing with you, would you mind to put your link of articles in order to make us sure that your articles are good enough? I think that every BM will have their own standard and they have made the certain regulation as stated in their rules of content. Have you made the articles based on the rules? I cannot agree with you or the BM because I personally don't know the true condition of yours.

And then he must have done a research to the his block for sure. So many blog participants give a little impact to the platform and that makes sense if they are taking such decision to refuse pay the content which has a little demand.

From my little experience in bounty, i don't think bounty managers cheat content creators, what i observed is that ,back in those days, only few people do content campaign, and reward was huge but now everyone is into the content creation, with the huge crowd doing content creation, just know reward will be low.

I think such issues should be addressed directly with bounty managers. First of all, you should carefully read the terms and find out all the nuances with the Manager. And after everything is settled is to start writing an article. After all, nobody do not want anyone to our labors were in vain.

Some bounty managers doesn't know about the value of content making! I feel pity for them. Therefore, many managers gave stakes without checking plagiarism properly! But i will not call them cheater if they wrote a rule in the thread that if you dont have views, you will not get any reward! Even i agree with this rule. Without views, an article or blog is not helpful. They needs promotion, to bring more investors, then this is not possible without views! So, they are not cheater in this term.

Have you contacted to the bounty manager regarding to your condition? Can you prove to him that your work is really beneficial and it is valuable enough suitable to the rules and condition? What kind of articles you make? I don't know your exact condition so that I cannot agree with you.

It's very important for content creator to have an audience it's useless if you do not have someone reading your works, and the project that you are promoting will not get lead, so why not share your work to your social media account this is what I'm doing to generate audience to my blog.

Content creation is not an easy thing to do, most especially for those who have originality in their works. The OP is right. I once participated in a bounty, but just because I have a low audience, my stakes was reduced to the last.
I was just amazed, because of the time spent and the effort put into it.

I think you should complaint with the manager, I believe there's solutions for your problem. If not and you're right just share with us so in future if he/ she become bounty manager we will take more attention with him. As long you can proof that you're right people will support you, so don't be afraid just go for it.

I have the same opinion with you where many bounty managers cheat our content and make by himself, how many bounty campaign manager not allowed for all investor joined content campaign and they only give for special participants and joined by himself.

I think you are wrong if you say / make a thread like this and this will usually hurt you. You have to say clearly who the bounty manager is doing that and explain the proof.

I feel sorry to hear that bounty manager try to cheat participants. But, if you find this kind of manager, you can ask him/her why and price your originality. I'm sure they can understand and will try to re-check your publications.

I don't join bounties with rules ,they are pain in the ass please learn from me ,though bounty managers do cheat but not all of them ,find the ones that stay true to there words and have no stupid rules

Nowadays, content is the biggest effort. So, you can try to make more and more content so you can get maximum quality of the content.

Sorry to hear ,there are still many good bounty managers on here that cares more about bounty hunters ,they make sure that all participants get fair reward ,all you have to do is take your time to find good bounty managers and stay away from bounties with rules of adjusting bounty rules anytime ,sometimes they even later forced KYC on participants at the end of bounty campaign

Not so agreed with you. If you write a decent article, you will likely to get some boost. You should get some views or upvotes. Also, you can try to share your article on some of the social platform with some good related hashtags which may give you some views. Campaign managers do not cheat in this aspect.

I agree with your point of view, I have seen some bounty managers, the first time they censor the article is very serious, but when the campaign is nearing the end of a large number of posts are added, they are of quality low even not obeying rules but still able to get stake

basically, there is nothing that can force other people to comment/like/upvote our articles, but that won't happen if your article is good. I often see articles from other people who get likes/upvote/comments. because they made a very good article. so they get it.

I also want to say you that it depends on campaign manager. You should not join a campaign from an unreputed manager. Follow some of the best campaign managers like- Hhampuz, Julerz, Yahoo and some more. Then you can expect honesty.

There are rules in the bounty thread about the stakes and you should read it carefully before applying or joining content creation campaign. If you are a bounty manager/project team member would you like to pay for contents that doesn't actually helped your project raise awareness?

I think there’s no need to be harsh or upset about certain bounty manager attitude regarding content creation
Some hunters used spin bot or article spinner to cause plagiarism and it is very tiring for bounty Manager’s

But does the articles bounty hunters write really help the project make sales ? I don’t believe so

You should read clearly the rules of the bounty program before joining, I have encountered many cases like you because I don't read it carefully !! That will be an experience for you later

Content campaigns are always very well paid, but the subjective component is a serious handicap.. plus there you need to guarantee organic views in order to receive reward for the work. So is a risk. Anyway, i have seen so many many many reviews/videos, that would be a shame to me delivering that kind of trash.. Bounty manager should take a close look at every content posted and be more selective when assigning rewards

All Bounty Managers has a clear rules for competing on the bounty. if your current bounty campaign has a rule that it need an audience or your saying upvote and comment well even it was an amazing article you need to obey the rules and you must follow it. if you want to avoid it or prevent on wasting your effort pick a bounty campaign that dont need upvote or like, and focusing the contents of every articles.

I personally do not think that it should be called cheating when bounty managers give some people nothing for having low audience, we tend to forget that bounty campaigns especially content creation are not for creativity same mostly, they are mainly for marketing purposes and when they do not reach much audience, no matter how original the article is, it is basically useless because nobody or very few people read it.

This is something I find disturbing as well, why demand for unique articles if all you wanted was a large audience? We could have just reposted one of their articles to our blog that had many audience and claim the points, I do not like this trend by bounty managers at all.

I think the originality and quality of the content should be paramount to the audience engagement because someone can just copy and paste some parts of the white paper and pay for some bots to upvote for them. While those who genuinely did a creative work won't get any pay.

Yeh, I had the same problem. But after that I improved my blog and it's all ok. Bounty managers also do their work and they are not interested in cheating. I think that you blog doesn't have the requirement amout of followers.

I agree that a job well done should be paid at least somehow, even if few people have responded to it. Efforts and time were invested, which means if the work is done well and efficiently, it must be paid for.

You can use linkcollider or your social media account to share your works, it's the responsibility of every blog owner and content creator to show the world their work if a project does not get leads or even audience what is good about your bounty.
