I totally agree with you @hitmeasap. Honestly, I also truly feel that website and personal blogs are dying, and it's just a matter of time.
Rather than overcoming with the mountain of information to actually even get started on SEO, Facebook and other social media platform links you directly to your target niche.
Rather than create widgets and program html or Javascript, you hit the road running saving on huge developer cost. Since Facebook and other social media platform are free for use, you don't even have to pay a hosting fee.
The entire ecommerce market is changing so rapidly and I would Steemit provide a value proposition that no other platform can rival at the moment.
Whether my convictions will play out, I don't know. Only the time will tell. Steem on everyone!
Time will tell and everyone will come to the same conclusion. That Steemit is the future of Social Media! :)
