1. Choose a Profile Picture That Represents Your Hub
After signing up, choose a profile picture that reflects who you are and what your Hub stands for. It could be a photo of yourself, a symbol like a lion or hawk, artwork, a logo, or even a simple color or design. Your profile picture helps people quickly understand your personality, interests, values, and style of curation.
2. Think About the Things You Care About
Start thinking about subjects, interests, and ideas that matter to you or that you enjoy learning about. These will become your Topics. Your Topics can be almost anything: favorite celebrities, sports, historical events, video games, fashion, business ideas, home design, movies, travel, art, music, technology, motivation, community programs, and much more.
A Hub is a reflection of your interests, experiences, knowledge, and curiosity.
3. Support Your Topics With Resources
Once you’ve created your Topics, begin adding Resources to support and expand them. Resources are the content inside your Topics that help tell the story, teach others, organize information, or share experiences.
For example, if one of your Topics is Video Games, you might create Resources called:
PlayStation
Xbox
Nintendo 64
Inside each Resource, you can add videos, links, images, audio, documents, personal stories, memories, or helpful information. For your PlayStation Resource, you could share:
A video about the launch of the original PlayStation
An article about gaming history
Audio explaining your first gaming experience
Images of classic consoles or games
Every Resource helps make your Hub more meaningful, organized, and informative.
4. Discover More Through “Find Good”
Once your Hub begins growing, visit the “Find Good” section to discover other Hubs, Topics, and Resources across DEEPDIIG.
When you find Resources that inspire you or relate to your interests, you can save them to your own Hub and organize them into your Topics. This allows you to continuously grow your collection of curated knowledge while connecting with information shared by others in the community.
5. Continue Building and Growing Your Hub
Your Hub grows over time. Keep adding Topics, supporting them with Resources, discovering new information, and organizing the things that matter most to you.
As you continue curating and building meaningful collections of information, you may even qualify for one of DEEPDIIG’s highest achievements: the Pro Curator Award — a recognition for dedicated curators who consistently organize and share valuable knowledge with the community.
Your Profile/Hub picture will immediately say a lot about what other Hubs view you as. Here are examples of profile pictures that can work really well for you, based on your personality, knowledge, and interests.
Mind you, these are just examples. Please do not limit yourselves to our guide. We're just trying to help a little.

A Topic on DEEPDIIG is a curated category of interest that helps organize knowledge, experiences, ideas, and resources around a specific subject. Topics give your Hub structure by allowing you to group together videos, links, documents, audio, images, stories, and other Resources that help people better understand what matters to you.
Size: 594 x 1080px
Hub Resources on DEEPDIIG are the individual pieces of content that support and bring your Topics to life. Resources can include videos, links, documents, images, audio, stories, notes, recommendations, and other forms of media that help explain, explore, or deepen understanding around a Topic.
Resource Cover Image: The accurate size of a resource cover Image is 800 x 532px. This picture should easily capture what your resource is about.
Example:
Add Text: This section should be a bio or summary of the resource.
Example: Eastman Kodak Company is one of the most influential companies in the history of photography and imaging. Founded in 1888 by George Eastman in Rochester, Kodak revolutionized photography by making cameras simple and accessible to everyday people. The company became famous for its slogan, “You press the button, we do the rest,” which reflected its mission to bring photography to the masses.
Kodak pioneered film photography for over a century, creating popular cameras, film rolls, and imaging technology that shaped family memories, journalism, filmmaking, and advertising around the world. At its peak, Kodak was one of America’s most recognized and successful companies, employing tens of thousands of people and helping establish Rochester as a major innovation hub.
Although the rise of digital photography challenged Kodak’s traditional film business, the company remains an important name in imaging technology, printing, and commercial materials.
Kodak’s legacy continues to represent innovation, creativity, and the power of capturing moments in history.
Add Video: This section should include a YouTube video that best explains your resource.
Example:
Add Links: This section should include links to websites that provide more accuracy behind your resource.
Example:
Add Document(s): This section should include documents that thoroughly support your resource. Documents that are less than a paragraph short don't provide much aide.
Example

https://mcnygenealogy.com/book/kodak/kodak-milestones-1970.pdf

Add Audio File(s): This section is not limited to audio from only individuals related to the resource, but also audio from you, the curator. Actually, the best audio is from you. Share a 30 second or more audio clip about the importance of this resource to you and how it has affected those around you, your community, or the world.
Example:
If you're familiar with our Curator Awards, this would be an example of a completed resource. You will need 100 Resources and 20 Topics to apply to be a Professional Curator on DEEPDIIG.
