0.8 mils monthly visitors is a lot more than 0.013, but still under 1 mil, thanks for the info. Q&A platforms are interesting but they need a highly niched audience and maintenance. StackOverflow uses moderators which are very active. Spam won't be a problem, attracting the right kind of visitors will be.

That 0.8 million probably isn't unique visitors as I think Hypestat just multiplies the daily number (around 27k). That's still a fair few potential new users who are finding Steemit via search engines.
Tsu managed to recruit a few million users in their 20 month life (shut down last year), but that was helped by having referral rewards and a lot of those users were never active. The growth of Steemit is less dramatic. Seems to be a few hundred each day and some of those may be bots. It's the active users who really matter and that number is not changing much from what I've seen.
I'm just wondering how Steemit gets to the next level of million+ users.
I think at least 100,000 accounts may be bots, but what is interesting is that the number of active users is increasing steadily. I'm using steemd.com distribution page. 2-3 months ago the number of daily active users was around 1,500. Now it's around 5,000. That's 300% increase. It's a good speed.
Think IOT transaction processing.
@gutzofter what do you mean by that?
Steemit is one of the fastest transaction processors on a blockchain. This place is made for machines. I foresee an enormous influx of IOT bots coming on here, to publish their data and to get their command instructions. How many personal health tracker devices and thermostats?
Never thought of it like this. Yes, it does open a lot of possibilities...
