Probably the most asked question by newbies - how can my post get curated for support?  Sadly, there is no magic answer to this.  It takes time to hone your writing skills, to create content that adds value, to improve the quality to make it on par if not above everyone'e else, and to engage and build your network of support.  There is no quick way to achieve this in a sustainable way.  However, you can pick up some tips written by experienced curators on Hive.  It will definitely give you a head start.
