How can we spread Steemit to more users from other social media platforms to increase adoption?
I'd like to share an idea that I had that could be a good way to help grow the Steemit community. The basic idea is quite simple:
In step 2 they would need to post that they make a steemit account with the account name so that we'd know where to send the payment.
Are there any problems with this? Has it been tried before? Feedback is greatly appreciated!
Who to target
Targeting the highest profile youtubers / influences won't be effective because they already profit greatly from the current system. The ideal early adopters are people who are making great content but in a way that is difficult to monetize currently. This includes youtubers with 500-1000 subscribers, great reddit posts, facebook posts, etc.
Automating the process
Making a "Repostr" bot that does this automatically would be relative easy. One could start by supporting only reddit, an writing a bot that scans the front page and pms users, checks for a response with specific text like "I agree" and then checks for a post from that same account with a steemit user name. If it finds one it then can transfer the funds.
I imagine this could all be built and tested with 10-20 hours of work. If this post hits at least 100.00 I'll take a crack at building it myself (I've made one steemit bot before). If not I'll chip in a small donation to anyone who is interested in making this happen.
Lets help steemit grow!
