Steemit the great
Screen grabbed from google.com
Since the inception of steemit over a year ago, it has been ground breaking as there has been several update since then to make the egonomics (user-to-site interaction) smooth and very interesting. Steemit is now one of the world's largest social media, it grew so fast that almost none other can meet up.
Visibility and ads
Online services are being promoted with the use of advertisements of all sorts. The visibility of many services is jointly dependent of the quality of their service (i.e. what they have to offer) and the quality of their advertisement. I believe steemit community has done a very good job to bring new members online though there is nothing like referral bonus (though many contributors have suggested it but i kind of like the way it is). I like the fact invariably one can get a referral bonus on steemit by contributing under visibility section on utopian.io, paid with steem power. But i believe steemit can improve on the quality of it ads.
Suggestions
Banners
I am of the opinion that there are no banners that users can use to advertise steemit on other platforms, which is official and peculiar to steemit, so i am suggesting that steemit adopt an official banner that can be used by anybody to advertise steemit. The devs can give out an assignment for this course with a bounty, i believe that in no time the planet will come up with the best.
AMP
The other day i was searching on google for a post on steemit to get to know more about a subject topic. It is also important to note that the search we have on steemit is google integrated search.
I noted that after the search results were displayed and i clicked on one of them, i had to wait for the website to load. I suggest that steemit devs introduce the google Accelerated Mobile Page (AMP) into it system. This will allow ease of access for users that are searching for things. I believe it will affect (make better!) the integrated search too, since it is handled by google. If you search for AMP on google
It will bring results which are AMP
And when you click on them, the page loads very quickly and it is beautiful.
The Paradise of all my sugestions are:
- Banners will further help users to advertise steemit on other platforms and on their websites.
- Amps makes a site beautiful when searched for, it saves the rigor of waiting for the website to load cos i5 loads very quickly.
I am of the opinion that steemit can and will be better with these suggestions.
