RE: Would You Be Okay If Steemit Had Ads?
My dream for advertisement is this...
Steemit partners with a service such as Anonymous Ads. Their simple embed code gets whitelisted so it works on Steemit. Anonymous Ads of course begins accepting & paying out in Steem in addition to their current Bitcoin.
Every Steemian can now create banner ad slots in their posts. Rather than bid bots & the trending page, it becomes a valuable alternative to purchase ad space direct from other Steemians to promote your own blog, posts, & projects.
We get a working advertising system vs. the current broken promotion system. Ad revenue creates a de facto unlimited payout timeframe allowing good content to be “evergreen.”
The system should be largely self policing too. If a blogger goes overboard with ad slots they’ll risk being unfollowed or outright flagged if folks are truly miffed!
Anonymous Ads already has the ad inventory creation & management tools. It would probably be extremely simple to allow their code and create a user driven advertising market overnight.
And of course the system also easily allows outside advertisers to tap into Steemit, and Steemit creators to advertise on outside sites as well from a single account/dashboard.
The ad service takes a percentage of course, and it could be increased or divided to allow some back to Steemit Inc. or for burning purposes.
Love the idea! Hope @ned and @steemitblog notice this suggestion.
Thanks! I have to say, I actually like Project Wonderful’s ad bidding system much better. It would be great for fostering inter Steemian advertising. But Anonymous Ads gets a bonus for crypto friendliness. Either way, I think the solution is not for Steemit to run ads & find a way to profit share with the community, but for the community to be in control of ads & bring value to Steemit.
Actually, you should really write a proposal explaining your idea on utopian.io. It is linked to your steemit account, so you would get rewarded as well.
These kinds of good ideas should be mentioned and formulated to have a good chance at being implemented.
Hey sir @steem.services i need your help .Do you want help?
