RE: Let's Bring Promoted Posts Back - A Great Way To Reduce the SBD Debt!

in #promoted • 9 years ago (edited)

If more people click the promoted tab, it will gain some value so that people may promote their posts more. But this is a bandaid effort that won't solve the underlying issue of promoted posts. The implementation of them on steemit.com is not close to optimal.

I agree 100%!

There needs to be some way promoted posts reach people not necessarily looking for them.

I don't know how exactly they will implement it, but I think that is their plan. This is mainly just suggesting we work with what we have in the meantime :)

    They could put a promoted section after the actual post but before the comments
    the posts that would appear would be based on the tags of both posts. It would work as a related section as well. That could help smaller authors and ones looking to get bigger more quickly.

    I agree, that would help. I think they might be planning to add something like that. This is more something we could do in the meantime.

    True, although I think a beta version of this would help out a lot and would be easy enough to make.

      This update is the first step towards that. They are working on it :)
