@demotruk, does every upvote count as a transaction as well? One question I have though is what does this tell me about steemit other than that it can handle a lot of transactions? Thanks

Yes, every vote is a transaction. You can see a pie chart of the different transaction types and their frequency here
Aside from proof that the network is smoothly handling load of a level that others have difficulty with, it also shows that Steem is the blockchain with the most user activity (where bot actions are included as user actions, they are by proxy anyway).
The more I am looking into this, the more I understand the importance of it. Looking into EOS right now. Very interesting concept.
@demotruk, makes sense. What would interest me even more are there any official numbers on traffic? That would be very interesting for me.
@gavvet has written many posts on it. There's also https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/Steemit.com
@demotruk exactly what I was looking for, thanks for sharing. Alexa is very missleading...
Alexa has errors because of their sampling methods, but it gets more accurate with larger numbers (larger population areas, larger websites). It can be good enough in many cases.
@demotruk, agree... usually a website with a tech savvy user base ranks quite good on alexa even with low traffic. Thats why I was interested in some real data.
