My proposal for a suggestion tab
I would like to introduce a new feature to the steemit platform for users to find other post which are in their interests. For example my posts are mostly based up of old coins , history and silver coins, and I feel there are sometime new users I have not seen or come by, since the platform has been gaining many users a day. This should help bring users to new post daily from other users.
Examples for the suggestion tab
The post can go under the links tab that displays “My blogs” and ”My Wallet”
- The tab design used should be simple and neat like the tags tab
- The tab should be created on the man page of the steemit page.
- Post that will be suggested will be posts related to your mostly used tags and content that you’ve mostly viewed
- post that will be shown will be newly or post that haven’t reached their payout deadline (7days)
- post that the user has not seen
- post will be from other users that the user does not follow
- posts that will go in suggestions tab should be with a good content
- he tab will refresh every time the user visits the main page
Reasons for it to be displayed on the main page
I feel it’s should be displaced on the main page for when users are looking for new content or are exploring for other people’s content. The feed page is for content user want to see and I feel pushing them with seggestions on every page including the feed page can or might be annoying. This is also to keep the users feed page with not much clutter.
Determining what suggestion to be displayed for the user
Post that will be suggested to the users should be post that the user would have interests in. By using tags that the user has frequently used. Using mutual friends can also be used, by seeing how many of a users followers follow a user, and their for display that users recent or old post in the suggestion tab
amount of posts displayed in the suggestion
Up to 5 post should be displayed in the suggestion box, though a “load more” link can be added at the bottom of the tab to load another five suggestions for the users
Conclusion
This will help users find other users, and aswell help users find others that are on the same genre and interest. Newer users will have a good opertunity to be seen as well as everyone to be seen by people that have not encountered their works. This should bring user together and make filtering content easier , instead of users having to search really far for new content of their interests.
Thank you for your interest.
Kind regards

I am new to steemit (less than a month) and I think your suggestion is very good because we can't find a subject that we are interested without a good deal of effort, searching blog to blog, just to know what they are about. If we had a summary at the beggining our task would be much less time consuming.
thanks for the support man... yea really thing it could do steemit it good... and welcome to steemit i hope you enjoying yourself on the platform buddy
