Yes I do. I just don't want to be over-obsessed with it.

Steemit has an Alexa Page Rank moving between 2000 and 2200 for a while now. That's a steady achievement if you ask me, and networking effect works anyway.

Also, there are topics where it's harder to break into, e.g. some people may not like seeing "new" filled with so many posts from Indonesia and India.
