RE: New First Impression of Steemit

in #steemit8 years ago

@bitgeek has done some analysis of introduceyourself posts recently and the average payout is between 7 and 12 dollars (depending on the day of the week). A far cry from the thousands that some posts are getting. I am not saying that people are told to expect thousands but if that is what they see when they go to the site first that is their lasting impression.

Sort:  

Agreed. And if its a technical post with tons of Steemit lingo they havent learned about yet, then it probably wont make any sense to them either. Something of quality and middle of the road payout that is within their interest are would be ideal. Maybe there should be a dropdown asking them to pick their favorite topic(s) and then some examples pop up?

That is a great idea. A drop down or Pictures from a few general Topics that they could click into.

Yeah that woukd be nice. As well as a solid article with advice to new beginners. Im sure a lot of people think it looks cool but are overwhelmed and dont know where to start. So something explaining markup, whales, curation trails, Steem vs. SP vs. SBD, etc. could be beneficial.
