I think we're talking about 2 different topics now. I'm talking about why it's important for the trending page to be more appealing to a non-steem/non-crypto audience (since you brought up the trending page), and you're still talking about linking to our blog on YouTube.
To answer your comment, sure, when linking, you're probably going to be linking to your blog most of the time. But if you're talking to someone about Steemit (who's brand new), they're probably going to Google "Steemit" or type in Steemit.com, both of which take them to the home/trending page.
A lot of people find Steemit through other Google searches too, searching for "OfferUp hacks" for example. After they read the article about OfferUp hacks, if they continue browsing the site, they're probably going to find themselves on the home page very shortly, which is, of course, the trending page.
