I like the website. Reverio is a good competitor to Quora. It's ready to face public. Using the site doesn't feel like some MVP. We've got a real product people can use here!
It's just engagement is low. If there were more folks asking/answering questions it'll be easy to promote Reverio to more people. What are you best ideas to bring more people in?
Threads Integration!
This is my idea for marketing. Threads are looking cool. I have fun using threads. It'll be out of alpha in a week. What if there's a quick button to share to threads!
Threads will have 5K users by end of year. It's already got 1.5K. Threads are a easy way to expose Reverio to more users. Share to Web 2 links won't hurt either :)

A thing I honestly don't understand much (I tried to take that approach but I was not getting answers) is why the Hive users themselves kind of "struggle" to think of using Reverio or Hive (via Ecency, Peakd or whatever) in the first place, to ask questions, instead of using Discord or Twitter.
I totally get the accessibility factor of the other platforms (I end up doing it myself) but it'd be a win to win for everyone. We'd be "mining", there'd be more traffic and it'd be a great way to test features (regular users would stay in case of bugs or stuff like that while newcomers would more likely leave).
I also think that integrating questions for ongoing successful products (Splinterlands for example) would help (makes me think of sites like MTGGoldfish for MTG, with due proportions).
It's strange because I pretty much never saw somebody who used Hive not being satisfied. It's a bit like Brave. 0.02 cents per Ad is better than anything that all the rest of the internet and the world does. But nobody accepts it. Imo people are used to get nothing so they automatically refuse "a little". It's a pity because many things are very solid!
Sucks to see all the folks who reject tiny earnings. At least on bright side we have lots of people from poor countries. 0.02 cents isn't much. But they are less likely to refuse. Hive should focus a lot on 3rd world. There are lots of users. People from these countries have the most to gain from crypto. It's a chance for them to catch up and get better with finance!
I think the mentality is wrong. The system is solid and everyone should benefit from it. Either 1st or 3rd world countries. I understand what you mean though. People with actual need do not take crypto as a joke like many westerners do.
Imagine if everytime we watched a YouTube or a TV Ad..or commented a sponsored post on Facebook.. we got even just 1 cent. It's the same principle. People are kind of "used" to be enslaved and get crumbles.. for once there's the possibility of fair share and they're skeptical. I hope it'll get better with the years 🙂
Definitely a good question ! The key (as you've identified) is mass adoption.
There are lots of steps along the way. We need to ensure the infrastructure and server capacity (or nodes, or whatever) keep pace with increased volumes of stored data and usage levels. I also feel that as the volume of stored data (number of questions and answers) increases, the in-site search will need to be endlessly improved to ensure casual visitors can find the information they are looking for fast and accurately.
In terms of marketing, Threads is a definite winner, it's a great idea. Ideally, it would be good if people could ask questions in Threads that are automatically categorised to the correct Space. Then perhaps Reverio could reflect new questions into Threads in a "hey, anyone got an answer for this ?" kind of way.
Getting into Web2 is essential, to Twitter, Google and Bing. It could be a fabulous way to onboard new people into Hive, as well as really drive the mass adoption that we need.
Of course, all of this might mean expanding the team of coders behind Reverio (I get the impression it's a very small but talented team right now). That means putting in a Hive proposal to gain HBD funding to cover the cost, which in turn means coming up with a good business plan and marketing strategy to demonstrate that the cash injected would be returned in the form of Hive bought by new Hivers bought in as a result of improvements.
