I think that users will do more SEARCHES for the content they like in the future.
Like I do on YouTube. I go straight to the search bar an look for my favorite topic. I even drill down to what was posted the "past day" or even "past hour". This is how I see users finding what they want here at Steemit.
When Steemit continues to add hundreds of thousands of users, maybe users will be less focused on the "trending page". And trust me we need that to happen.
Most average writers will never see the main page or "trending page". There is a growing talent entering the Steemit Community everyday and I don't expect to compete with these brilliant writers and bloggers. What I do think I can do in compete in my area of interest or my hobby. Maybe then I can make it to the "trending" page under MY category. That is definitely more realistic in my opinion.
That is why the SEARCH page needs to be improved, a little more sexy if you will, and give us multiple ways to search. There are some great minds running Steemit and their is even greater minds signing on every day. If someone has some ideas about sprucing up the search page please comment below and just maybe someone will see it.
