a. Your Blog Title.
b. Your Story (You can add photos and videos there too!).
c. Take note that you can only use 5 tags and all of it has to be in small letters. Make the most out of it! You can find tags you can use in trending page.
d. Blog Rewards is divided into 3 categories: 

Power Up 100% - 100 percent of your earnings goes to powering up your account with Steem Power.

Default 50% / 50% - half of your earnings will go to Steem Power and half will go to your money account (either Steem or Steem Dollars) that are readily available for trade or to pay for stuff.

Decline Payout - The potential payout then will stay in the reward pool.

e.) Make sure that you are 100% confident to publish your blog. Yes, you can edit the wordings but Steem doesn't have any options to edit the photos and you cannot edit your post once you received the reward or payouts.
