If my blog is filled with ads that I'm not compensated for in any way, I will probably leave Steemit and go to a blog where I am fairly compensated for advertisement revenue. Ad companies should at least have to buy some Steem and burn it or share it with authors or we will see an exodus. They may be able to pay Steemit to have their ads appear across certain tags but individual authors should also get something.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Steemit is just a front-end. There are other front ends that you can choose from using the STEEM blockchain. It is all the same people and same stuff, just a different interface. There is a desktop client that doesn't even use any front-end. You have options and can still do all your crypti-kitty stuff on STEEM add-free.
So true and the amount of DApps are growing. Steem/SBD is one of the best blockchains, it should be ranked higher than it is. I hope Steem steadily increases in value and popularity.
Well you get upvotes and Steem for them already.
so when Steemit Inc suggest you should pay for the development work they do on the Steem blockchain that they have been funding.... you going to ante up? Consider the ads a contribution to the work they do on the platform.
I prefer to negotiate. We are Steemit, it's not just Ned and his team here. What if I disagree with an ad or disagree with the company, will it still be shown on my blog? Why don't they just collect steem like everyone here and sell it on the open market? I'm sure the team could get a couple witness votes and develop apps that we and advertisers would pay some Steem to use.
Well actually... we are Steem
Steemit.com is owned by the private company called Steemit Inc so if you object that strongly to seeing ads in the comment section then use another front end.
It’s their site to put them on and receive the revenue.
