To make steemit more sustain,keep expanding, attracts new members to join ,at least like facebook or more than that..some suggestions
Why facebook becomes the main comparison in among of the competitors, not reddit,friendster or other average social media platform. The main reason behind is ,at the moment , facebook has achieved billion daily hits and the most important ,it has been accepted globally in overall group of ages in terms of its unique content and geographical local social needs like interest, culture ,religous and racial sensivities.
The approach that taken by facebook seems quite similar like what google has been done so far (the content more emphasize specifically local geographical needs) compare to the other platform i.e concentrating only for certain groups (gaining popularity in sudden times but dropping also in short time) . These kinds of style are the reason why facebook keeps more expanding as big as google and seems will keep more expanding to the next at least a decade, if we are keep watching the facebook journey from its establishment started around in a year 2004 till now, it was begun in slower progress compared to the other competitor like friendster and myspace, if i have not mistaken since facebook introduce localized content (understanding very well to the local needs)..this kind of unique and miracle features has enabled facebook gaining tremendous online progress until make google in ' a bit worry' .
In addition it acts like google purchased the rapid growing social media platform like instagram and whatsapp, mixed and blend it very well in unique way and these for sure make the facebook as a truly rival for the other online giant like google and microsoft.
Steemit is a social blogging like reddit , concentrating in cyrptocurrency – as a reward method( main business activity) still in beta phase, for sure strongly targetting high number of active of new and existing blogging accounts, arising time to time in order to give the steemit in very strong foundation in current online borderless world.
To achieved that, below are some valuable point of views to be considered, (consider ** steemit is still in beta **period) :
ENCOURAGEMENT SPECIALLY FROM WHALES
#richlist
To support for high quality post ,even though the post had not earned as big as the post that being voted by the big whales. High quality post means the post content which has something at least can give us some new ideas ,good informations,unique brainstorming problem solution and in another words the content that can benefitted us. Maybe big whale can reward something based on by number of comments and voting. Therefore, as a suggestion, if the post content can easily SEO optimized, so if any person regardless as steemit members or non members are looking or searching something some valuable informations through search engines,after typed in some keyword and the search engine like google perform searching,its really encouraging if information in steemit blogging post will be come up at least in top 5 or 8 ( at the moment if i have not mistaken at the moment we have to include word ' steemit' then it can bring to explore the content inside the steemit posting) .
I rememberred in one last time during alibaba.com during in beta period like steemit now ( now alibaba.com is the top ranking business to business matching , B2B website valued in billion dollar), one of my friend that incolved in very small business selling local made beverage, when he decided to expand his tiny business a bit more, he had made some search online looking something using related business keyword . in search engine like google, yahoo ,bing and etc. it was always appearing content from alibaba.com at least in top 5 or 8 position. About short period of time, then alibaba.com has gone through online progress very tremedous and impressive (equal with ebay, amazon ) .I think most probably its website has been built in some features that very SEO keyword optimized.
ALERT FEATURES AT FEED
Feed in steemit blogging as we know is a feature that appearing blog post from the person we are following . In steemit, we need to click the 'feed' more often if we want to know whether any new post from the person who we are following. I think if the steemit can put some alert alarm that will be alerted us automatically when new post was posted, maybe can put ' unread post' and always keep blinking until we open the feed.
For steemian , always want to be the first upvoting to new post specially if the post has potential to be voted by big whales.
As a suggestion the feed also not only posts from the person who we are following but include the post based on our interest, as an example if we are interesting in photograph so the new related post that coming in, FEED automatically activate the alert alarm, if the post attract us, we just put in our upvote and comment or else just delete the post in our feed inbox.
MONETIZE OUR STEEMIT BLOG
In normal blog either free blog like blogspot or paid fees blog/website , monetization process as we know is pay per click program (PPC) something like ' google ads' or other company's ads that automatically appear ( sent by the ads provider ) at webpage or blog page and when someone who visit the blog and click the ads (unique click), some percent of earning will disperse to the blog owner (publisher).
In steemit blog point of view, I think the monetization is exactly different from the other normal blog, if the steemit can contribute some percent earning when the person who put upvote or comment to our post is a new sign up members and they also have made an investment into steem power ( cryptocurrency), i think it will gives some big attraction for people out there to join steemit and sign up new steemit blog account so this this is an another kind of earning source instead of upvoting /comments and blog post.
To attract people to invest in steem power cryptocurrency, maybe stemmit can put a special column at the blog top bar ,that can explain market potential and other benefits of steemit power , maybe the special alert should be blinking attracting to click in order to view latest informations and offer about steem power cryptocurrency. Therefore,the more people invest in steem power cryptocurrency the more progress and stability of the steem power.
CONCLUSION
Many opportunities and ideas can be made into the steemit progress ,suitable with its concepts ‘to be fair’ for its content contributors . Another ideas like to make marketplace something like ebay or amazon.com(for sure using steem dollar)also gives more strength to the steem power.
Many bloggers and creative peoples out there are struggling with the current economic situation, if steemit can provide something what we call 'additional income' through creative blogging (instead of upvoting/curating and posting that we are doing now) i think many people will leave blog monetization like google adsense or etc.
