Components
Steemit.com is a platform were bloggers, writters and othes that enjoy pinning down their views about a subject have the freedom to express, through this platform you are being rewarded for your views and still stand a chance of connecting with a thousand and one people from all diversities. Also Steemit.com is built upon the blockchain.
Proposal
Many amazing features makes blogging on steemit to be enjoyable, of course they were built for the bloggers comfort, features like the trending features, hot, new,promoted and lots more, but with the advancement of these features, blogging on the platform will be made more flexible. I propose that the promoted and trending sections that allows post to fall in that category should be made to run as and "add" on the feed automatically. Taking for instance, the adds on the popular "facebook" site, it is being viewed automatically while going through your timeline, you do not need to navigate to a particular section and click on 'facebook adds' to view. As such bringing in this feature, the promoted and trending post could be viewed easily when going through your feed.
while the promoted and trending post is being run on the feed, the same feature that indicates resteemed post can also be used to indicate promoted and trending post, but indicated that it is a "promoted" or "trending".
Mockups / Examples

Benefits
Making of the promoted and trending post to run with indications on the feed will make it easier for people to reach,it will enhance visibility of those post, a lot of people find it stressful to navigate back to the current section just to view promoted or tending post, and some do not even visit that section of the blog at all, this new contribution will make it more visible and every post in that section will be able to get a better reward.
