  • Yes, steemit is a business.

Steemit is a platform owned by Steemit Inc. Steemit Inc is a private company headed by Ned Scott. Every company is a business hence the platform is a business. This is also evident in the fact that they have now introduce ads on the platform.

I think your question is wrong because the description and suggested answers do not tie with the question.

I am not sure but I think your question should be Should the steemit platform be use as a business?

Note

Note that Steemit is just one out of over 300 applications/platforms on the steem Blockchain. Many people do not even use this platform but still abuse bid bots.

What I mean is that most bid bot users use other platforms like busy, Partiko and steempeak to post their content before promoting it with bid bots. Hence, you can not address only the situation with Steemit.

I hope you get to understand me!

Hmmm

Nope. I made this question because of one argue with a fellow steemian.

And as it is on the state of the dapps steemit is a social media website. It means it is not a business. They actually dont sell nothing. They product is for free so anybody can use it. Same with the rest of the dapps.
However many smart people start to find out how to make money here so now the website is not working properly. Or lets say the people dont use it in a way they should.
So this is the reason why many people think that this all is a business. Steem can be use for busienss but that is not steemit or partiko. Esteem or those dapps that they have beneficary they can be call i think a business because they make income from they users.

Anyeay i am happy that you wrote down your view because i am curious so much what is in the people's mind.

Steemit now displays ads which means they are making money off users.

Also, even without the ads, they are still earning a lot from the traffic generated by the website on a daily basis.
