Steem Atlas Awards 2025 | Best Author Nominations
Greetings Steemit Community,
As you know, Steem Atlas has been one of the most popular and progressive initiatives on the Steemit platform this year. Many users from different countries shared reviews, travel experiences, and local stories with us. Each of you contributed immensely to the project's growth. And, mainly, special thanks to @pennsif and his witness team for the smooth running of the project; it's a great honour for me to be a small part of this as an Ambassador.
As I said earlier, we had the opportunity to learn about so many different places, different cultures around the world. Eventhough there was a small contribution from Sri Lanka, I could stay connected and active in different ways. So, it's time to highlight the notable users of Steem Atlas in this year, through Steem Atlas Awards 2025.
During the past few days, my fellow Atlas Ambassadors published their nomination posts for the Best Author of the Year. Selecting nominations is never easy. There are many good contributors who deserve appreciation. While making my choices, I focused on consistency, contribution, quality of reviews, clarity of information, photography, and long-term involvement with Steem Atlas. In my selections, I chose users from different countries who make a positive impact on the project.
My Nominees
![]() | @fantvwiki | from Indonesia - Pioneer from Indonesia, both by promoting the project, and sharing 200+ high-quality reviews with consistency |
|---|---|---|
![]() | @shahid76 | from Bangladesh - has contributed with 100+, very detailed and informative reviews about a wide range of places, including high-quality images. |
![]() | @candra8692 | from Indonesia - very active, and consistent user who was always in the top list of ranking, with 150+ reviews, which are informative, complete, and pleasing to read. |
![]() | @ahsansharif | from Pakistan - Most active users from the country with 50+ reviews, where each one of them perfectly covers the basic requirement of Atlas |
![]() | @sean2masaaki | from South Korea - The main member from South Korea, who brings their popular places with a wider range. Consistently shared review with high-quality images, now with 250+ contributions. |
So, these are my top 5 nominations apart from the users my colleagues nominated. There are many more Steemians who can easily come to this list, and this is my personal opinion.
Two people will be selected as the best of the year from among the five on December 31. The two best users of the year will be awarded 50 steem 🎁.
So, I hope everyone will be excited to see the winners. I hope you all will continue to contribute to Steem Atlas. You can see the nominations from fellow ambassadors from here.
Many thanks to the Pennsif and the entire Steem Atlas team for the opportunity, and everyone for the contributions... See you soom!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! 😍😍
Until the next time! Enjoy!
Thank you.
Best Regards!

Bundle of thanks for the nomination. This is a great matter of pride for me to be hung up in the nominations list. As a Pakistani, I tried my best to explore and share the places that have great history in Pakistan. I'm continuing my effort to pin great locations on Steem Atlas. Once again, thanks a lot. Have a good day. 💖
