Great question
Here is what I feel about Steemit
Its far from being a social platform compared facebook. The way facebook is structured from the outset its tailored to create Relationship first before business.
When facebook was introduced the business aspect of it was placed on silence so to speak. Your post get quickly noticed by friends. Everything was smooth.
The developer wanted to approach it from a relationship perspective because through relationship you get people to be committed and loyal to your course.
It took some years before facebook turned its platform to a Relationship-Business and Because people are already Loyal and committed to using the platform it was easy to convert them to business leads. Now to get people see your post you will have to pay a fee for it.
How about steemit?
To me its more of a blog than social platform but its slightly social.
If Steemit wants to kick facebook out they would have to add Relationship building to this platform like facebook and create an advertising community where people meet to share business ideas outside steemit
What do you think about this?
What do you mean by an "advertising community?" Explain that please.
A group where people meet and exchange business Ideas...share links for signup without being flagged.
Facebook has groups of interest with different niche. You can meet various people who share the same business ideas with you and discuss business with them. You can add them up as friends and even put a call thru to them. You can video chat .....to build relationship then business follows
You can own your group and add people of same interest with you. And build a great audience.
Guess you know what I meant to say.
