any sort of how to's are good. Even gardening, woodwork, life hacks etc
This is exactly what the new tribe Build-It is encouraging. Yes, it has its own front-end which might seem that it drives away traffic from steemit.com or other front-ends. However, it's much easier to encourage specialized content on designated front-ends for several reasons:
- Specialized content gets more attention on content specific front-ends, because of the content specific tokens. You can think of tribes as a first filter and an incubator for great content.
- Expert content creators usually feel more at home in content specific front-ends. This enables them to write technical or expert knowledge posts without feeling the need to 'dumb' it down.
- Less pressure on content creators to write posts that please the masses. While this may sound opposite to the discussion here on attracting the masses, it is not. Having a great diversity of specialized knowledge is powerful and will draw attention streams from all over the internet.
The key here is diversity of specialized content rather than pleasing the masses. This is what tribes will help in :)
Oh cool I didn't know about this tribe, I certainly love the idea and will check it out more often. That's exactly what we need, very encouraging to see.
