RE: WHY ARE SOME OF STEEMIT BEST WRITERS LEAVING? ARE YOU FEELING IGNORED? WHAT CAN WE DO TO INCREASE RETENTION OF CREATIVE WRITERS? DO WE HAVE ROOM FOR SIMPLE SOCIAL POSTS? HOW CAN WE BALANCE BETWEEN SOCIAL MEDIA AND CREATIVE CONTENT?

Happy birthday Joseph! I don't remember seeing you mention your birthday was coming.

I'll try to do something about those concerns in future post. Thank you for posting about it.

Thank you, but I can use one of your questions or concerns today. :)

I would love to see some Steemians give a % of their SD reward to Facebook ads. Steemit is a Facebook killer and it's awesome to advertise there.

I would also love to see viral recruitment campaign with incentive to long term commitment and I'm partially working on this right now. I have so many project.

I'd love to do more but I'm struggling with time. I put all my free time on Steem.

I also feel like things will fall into place when the Steemit website's look is more polish.

And I'm glad to see your last 2 posts. We need more of those.

Maybe if an X amount of every SBD reward is taken out automatically by the blockchain and stored in a steemit promotion account then spent on promoting steemit on google/twitter/facebook/reddit/bitcointalk etc etc ? could this be done for a year until steemit gains traction?

I would rather see a donation based option for this as opposed to taking people's rewards. Even a button / checkmark that says "Donate x% to promote Steem!" would be better than having the blockchain take people's rewards.

I have tried to my little part in promoting Steemit on Facebook. I have a page there, Exposing Progressive Corporatism, with 4300 followers, and I'm always cross posting to that group my links to Steemit. But I'm amazed at how reluctant a lot of people are to try this. Even my own friends, my personal, close friends who blog!

I agree with @complexring. It should be donation based. I have a lot to say but I will keep my energies to put in my posts. Don't take this as a negative on the contrary. I'm working very hard. I'm doing my very best and with my limited amount of time I try to put it where I feel I have the most positive impact.

I would also love to see this @teamsteem - what a great idea. Very worthy of a post in itself. Anything from facebook, ig, twitter, snapchat ads would be awesome to look into. Would you be willing to run a campaign to do this? I really love that idea.

My last 2 post were advertised on Facebook and those post could be understood by newbies. They were address to newbies somehow. I had great response on Facebook and I'm looking at doing more and being more precise about the intent of my advertising.

I recommend you take a look at my blog particularly my last post. It made it in the top 10 of the day if not top 5.
