So to join this group, each user must always participate in our contest at least for the 4 weeks in month. In addition to the weekly contest prizes, we will reward them in additional ways as follows: > **1. Label:** In addition to the **Verified** label which all our community members have, members of this hub will be given an additional label - **ProWriter**. So their entire label will be **Verified ProWriter** > **2. Monthly Prizes:** At the end of the month, we will add up the total points gained from the rating of each person's contest entry. We will also count the engagement. We will then add the engagement count and total rating count, to arrive at a number. The top 3 persons with the highest total number of engagement and posts rating would be our winners for the Month. We are starting this July. **We will give out either a cash prize or a Gift to the top 3 month winners.** > **3. Other Incentives: We will print a ProWritersHub membership T-shirt and we will also make sure to give special support to posts published by members of this hub.** ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVwjYvi8LZTjvi58GK1zCtvajgNgMrP1aYtZqnwnXaaAy/image.png) # How to Join ProWritersHub > **1.
