We Need Stronger Steem Discovery
The most pressing question to most Steemians, whether you’re a whale, witness, dev, investor, daily user, enthusiast, or a combination of the above is - how do we get more people to discover and engage with the Steem blockchain? Looking around at the state of DApps today - Steem should be the blockchain that the general public starts off with when learning about cryptocurrency, even before Bitcoin in our opinion. Steem has well over fifty thousand global daily active users, hundreds of applications that can be used to earn cryptocurrency today, and the most active potential for communal growth and development. Steem is simply the easiest blockchain available to engage and be rewarded by.
Let's Build Bridges
It remains a paramount struggle to get the word out there and make Steem shine amongst a great deal of the other altcoin chaff whose market values are artificially bolstered by hype and promises. As a community, we should be looking to bridge this active and productive ecosystem with the broader public.
We all need to be better at showcasing these assets to the public. Despite having the world's most engaged blockchain - we have one of the smallest off-blockchain communities. Spreading the word is incredibly important. We all need to be better at building bridges.
We were inspired by @timcliff’s Steem blasts and @stephenkendal’s efforts off-chain, and we wanted to come up with a strategy to incentivize and reward Steemians for their efforts to support major projects on the Steem blockchain. So, we came up with this to start -
Follow [ALL] Steem Twitter Accounts = Earn an Upvote
Our premise here is simple. Let’s incentivize Steemians to build the most public facing avenue for Steem-powered projects. Twitter is by far the most active social platform for the blockchain industry and crypto community, so it’s the perfect place to start. Most major DApps and communities, including Steemit Inc. itself, have growing presences on Twitter and if we were able to successfully encourage even a fraction of Steem’s daily user base, there would be tremendous public energy and attract more users to Steem.
How to Play
Follow the accounts (linked below). Take a snapshot of you following the above (the Twitter ‘Following’ list will show your most recent follows in chronological order) and share it in the comments (below) for a @sndbox upvote! Share your ideas for more Steem exposure and promotion as well!
First, let’s start with Sndbox and our Magazine, The Creative Crypto. Our team has been aggressively building out our Magazine's Twitter presence and now have 1,500+ engaged (human) followers / 1 million twitter impressions each month. There's a huge demand for content, creativity and culture on Crypto Twitter. Steem's got it.

Thank u. We will be in touch
Hi there Guys. I would love to share some ideas:
Let's make a big marketing campaign so everyone in Steemit may share the best posts talking about STEEM, guides and best user cases. Here we can include Success Stories of many members. The idea is to share the same posts so we could make them viral in twitter/facebook/reddit/etc.
Let's declare an Free Instant account creation day. I don't know how but this could be done so people can register very easily. Let's face it, the account creation process is a real pain in the ass. Many people I have invited told me "Why the account creation process is so hard?". So maybe somehow we could make one day(per month or per week) so people can easily create an account and get a fast course about how to start. This can be promoted on all social networks.
If we open the access, so people can register easily(why not creating some kind of KYC or using google's mail ID + a manual verification or Real ID verification?) we could pay for ads in any platform out there but we need a better way to create new accounts.
We are doing our bests in order to maintain and sustain this platform why not making it massive once for all? What do we need if we are creating the money here?....Just saying...
So those are the ideas I have right now. Open registration access + a free fast course to put people in track may be a good way.
For twitter it could be a special campaign to **give accounts away for people whom can do an specific number of retwits and likes/shares ** (As you can see I am not an usual Twitter user so)...Paying twitter ads?
STEEM ON.

Way to go!
Thanks @shortcut!!
Following on both my twitter accounts.
Excellent, much appreciated Dave!
I will support the campaign!
I think a mass in flow of tweets base on STEEM, coinbase and altcoins as a tags on Twitter will push it to trending and a lot of retweets.
Although, @timcliff and other members of blast agreed to create a separate account on Twitter for channeling things concerning and connected to this. I don't know maybe you guys shared the same thoughts or think alike?
Perhaps you have a better idea...
Main reason for creating the account on Twitter is to concentrate on a particular tweet from a particular account. (Millions of retweets and mention get the message on trending very fast).
Thanks for raising this - ultimately - we need Steem applications, users and communities to build a stronger footprint on existing social networks in order to make rallies and campaigns impactful.
Twitter is a network where lots of cryptocurrency conversations are being had and where we should be making ourselves heard more frequently. Steemit Inc. is beginning to do this... and all of us can help by engaging and contributing to the conversation.
I hate to get all spammy here, but I wrote a small piece up on my own strategy which is to compare traditional social network posts to their Steem, or other cryptographic social networks, outcomes.
https://steempeak.com/steem/@distantsignal/compare-them-an-easy-way-to-promote-steem
I take a screenshot of my instagram or YouTube post and then compare them to the Steem versions. In every case, I've made at least a few cents compared to $0.00. I think that's a practical and simple way of marketing cryptocurrency social networks.
That's a fantastic example! That would make an interesting DApp idea - creating a side by side interface where you publish the same thing on steemit / medium ... steepshot / instagram... youtube / dtube... and then track the results!
Anyway sorry that's off topic, hah - thanks for sharing this. People get really caught up (negatively) with 25¢ posts, when in reality that's more value than other social networks will ever pay. A great marketing strategy that can immediately resonate with content creators.
If I knew how to program, I would do it myself! Good idea. A real time comparison based off of a shared hashtag maybe?
The steem blockchain needs strategies like this,like you earlier said twitter is one social that gives update about cryptocurrencies ..i think i will start following up steemit in twitter so i can keep myself abreast about so many things.
This is a smart idea. Form a critical mass. It would also help if we all retweeted everything of interest from these accounts.
I've followed everyone on the list. Like all good ideas. It's simple. :-)
We need a daily coordinated approach to spread the advantages of our steem ecosystem. I'm in.
My twitter page is now a sea of steem app posts.
Thank you @molometer! Absolutely, we need more coordinated approaches and a stronger community footprint. We'll get there :)
This is a good start. We all need to blitz twitter daily.
Tbh I'd given up on the twitter wasteland but this is a great use of that platform.
We'll definitely come up with future ways to incentivize real Twitter engagement and growth.
I was already following half of them so I might as well follow the rest!
Steem on @movievigilante!
Anyway I was actually only missing a couple of them. Thank you so much for trying to call out people on their shit lololol every 2 weeks I talk about this on my videos to remind everyone that we need to spread the word. Because if no one knows where to find us no one will consume our content 😀🙏🏻 this is amazing. Thank you once again for doing this.
Thank you so much @sergiomendes! 100%... we need better wayfinding. That's a broader crypto problem, but it's a something that the Steem community could lead the charge in changing.
I totally agree. I think people are just asleep and doing their thing in here that they forget about all the positive things they could earn and improve by being active promoting all over mainstream social platforms. I just saw your tweet and RT 😉 let's get it out there. I am all in with you guys in this battle. Have been one of my main flags in here for a while now ❤️

Good idea, thanks for sharing the list. It makes it faster to follow
Thanks for sharing the list @sndbox! I was already following most, but now I’m following all! Cheers :)
(PS I found this post thru Twitter!)
Fantastic! Glad you found this through Twitter :D
I was already following some of the accounts : D
The more exposure Steemit gets, the more conversions will happen. What can we do? Like and Retweet what we find exciting from the list we followed on Twitter. Our followers and other users will find it exciting as well. Building a dedicated community is important.
Steemit users need to remembers that the users own Steemit and not Mark Zuckerberg. The more users who are interested in Steemit, the more valuable the network is.
Great idea
Thanks for the mention. Stephen
Absolutely @stephenkendal! You're one of Steem's star stewards.
Others I've already following few months ago

Great, thank you for the support @psos!
Thanks you too :)
Great Idea Guys,
All I have followed, hopefully it can help facilitate communication between members of the Steem DApps community
Hi, @sndbox, I have done this. Excellent initiative.
Thank you for information. I followed already. Love steem
Followed them all
That's great! @sndbox
Excellent @sndbox !
Here is proof of connecting with other steem Dapp
@sndbox good job
Hello @sndbox!
Thanks for great platform and community.
Great work @dalz :)
Steemit as for me is the #1 platform that can really bring about the mass exposure and adoption of cryptocurrency.
Just like the CEO of coinbase said
Steemit resonate with that statement very well
Many have already benefitted by showcasing their set of skills at various levels and domestication.
Personally, I have struggled in the past to be rewarded by the incentive mechanism of the system, but I have taken a bold step by leaving my day job which has enslaved me for the past 1&half year which I have nothing to show for.
I know it will be difficult journey but I am very determined to see a breakthrough through this awesome platform.
Here is my new post introducing back with a renew strength which focus is on the space am passionate about "blockchain"

I need your, advise, support and encouragement as I embark on a liberty-seeking- journey.
