Promotion is broken in terms of getting visibility. Essentially now we write a post and it goes into the firehose and we just hope our audience happens to see it. Steem gives us very few tools for helping our audience find its authors. So, upvotes are quite effective means of buying visibility. When community features come along, then the need for visibility upvote buying will diminish.

Is that because nobody clicks on the promoted tab? I wonder if that could be fixed?
