You see how Steemit.com has those featured posts?
You've seen the announcements on the side too? Steem-Engine can do it too now. We're asking for 100 eng as a burn to set this up and it should take you less than 10 minutes to get it up and running.
Once it is up and running you as a tribe owner now have the ability to edit which posts are going to be featured or get announcements listed. You're welcome to charge whatever you'd like for that service. We're not getting involved. If I have advice it's "make it BURN!!!!" You know, take in your tribe's currency, burn it, and add the post to the promoted list or announcement page.
Why would you burn it instead of just collect it? If you're the owner you'll likely get a lot more out of it by burning it. Instead of getting a handful of tokens at the lowest price you're removing tokens from circulation making all of your other tokens worth more. Anyway, it's just a suggestion. You be you, you do you. I'm just here to enable shit so that tribe owners can make money through ads and posts etc and not just do the sell your stake forever thing...
You can make a github on your own.
When you make a repo it has to be very specific. It has to be owner/owner.github.io
This is good!
This is bad!
Then go ahead and make a new file.
Name the file index.html
If you don't want any posts showing up include
{"pinned_posts":[],"notices":[]}
If you want posts to show up you'll format it this way
{"pinned_posts":[
"@steem.leo/the-daily-leo-4-or-manually-curated-investment-newsletter-from-the-steemleo-community",
"@steemitblog/help-test-hardfork-21",
],
"notices":[
{"permalink":"@steem.leo/the-daily-leo-4-or-manually-curated-investment-newsletter-from-the-steemleo-community","tag":"Announcement"},
{"permalink":"@steemitblog/help-test-hardfork-21","tag":"Announcement"}
]}
This formatting will add two pinned posts, and 2 announcements. the steem.leo post will show up as both an announcement and a featured post.
For Github pages, it takes about an hour or so for the site to initially show up, but subsequent edits will show up within seconds. The site will be available at https://aggroed.github.io, in this case.
So, remember just because you set this up doesn't mean that's it's ready to go. You have to contact me, aggroed, to make sure that you've either paid me 100 eng that I'll burn or you can show that you already burned it. Then Eon will enable your Nitrous to read form there. After that point you'll edit the github file whenever you choose and kapow... POST FEATURED!
If these front ends get eyeballs, and they accept payment in return for eyeballs especially through burning tokens what do you think will happen to the price of tokens that get a lot of eyeballs?
Obviously we have to thank Steemit for creating the blockchain and condenser, as well as making it easy to hook into featured posts functionality. There's many people that have contributed to that repo over the years and their contributions have helped us get here. For Nitrous, this is enabled by
