One quick comment. On the section how can steempress help your blog, I would move monitize to the end....steem has been plagued with the wrong expectations.

We sure are! A full summer worth of Steem hackathon has given us a lot of ideas and product. So expect fun times ahead ;).

I completely agree, and have been giving Steemit Inc critique for this for years. That's why in the two first and most striking value props are the ability to reach people in a new way and improving engagement, and not having the "make money" argument there at all. Putting it first in the set of value props below then made sense in order to present something not already mentioned. As we add the featured blogs, to the main website, I think even more focus will be on the community value of how being in a place where creators have a shared incentive to see each others grow and succeed will come across even more as the main reason to get excited, which also does not depend on reward.

I think the opportunity of making something of value is nice, but it should be centered around helping Steem gro to make ones tokens more valuable, not on what one can do just earn tokens.

In any case, thanks for the feedback! And I'm sure we can do a lot together to grow this place! Always hungry for ideas for community initiatives that can be facilitated on our website or Discord that helps all SteemPress users succeed, and where the community members such as yourself can take ownership of running it.
