I've been reviewing dapps of the state of the dapps for a few months now on my @bxlphabet blog. This is how I found tasteem, dpoll, esteem, and ntopaz which all have great upvotes for their users.
I agree ntopaz is like Behance. I have had a photo blog over there for years, and like it - but no money comes from it, except for affiliate sales.
I do not think ned is your best resource for marketing right now. I think he has stepped way back. But I see your posts and comments about marketing all the time, @ackza, and this might be a good avenue for you:
@theycallmedan has an open post this week offering to give good upvotes if you promote STEEM in the outer world. He is really trying to boost our presence now. He might do this post weekly if he gets good response. Maybe this is a good opportunity for you to work with him.
How Have You Promoted Steem This Week?
I do daily promos on Twitter with share2steem, and promote STEEM in fb groups a few times a week. But my niche on STEEM is minnow tips. We get over 1000 new people each week and have 95% kill rate. So I work to help the people who stagger in and are trying instead of trying to get more to come in and die. I don't not have weathy connections for the most part, so I would just bring more redfish anyway.
