GLOBAL STEEM ADOPTION! HOW CAN IT BE ACHIEVED?

in #steemit6 years ago (edited)

Some times, I sit back to think about the things that can be done to encourage more people easily join steemit to start creating quality contents in order to add value by making use of the steem blockchain. I found out that there are millions of things that can be done to get more people streaming into the steem blockchain but the major problem that can restrict the speed of getting more people to use the steem blockchain is the steemit itself

If steem is gonna attain global adoption, then when?
I think YES! It is a step by step process. Steemit has to take some initial steps to make that happen
There are some of the major things steemits needs to fix in order to encourage more people to open a steemit account:

Reduction of the long awaiting period before getting your password:

This is one of the major protocols that limits the enthusiasm of some curios newbies who must have just heard about steemit and tries to open an account. I understand that being active here is mostly about the passion to be here and this is really boosted and encouraged when you get good rewards, so the newbies that will become passionate steemians will be patient enough to wait for 2 weeks+ in order to get their own passwords to start steeming. There are many friends and foes whom I have personally introduced to steemit, one of 'em told me she waited for 28 days before she could get her own password. That ridiculed me, cause I've never heard about long waiting periods that is above 15days.
I understand that this long period of waiting could be because of some technical evaluations and confirmations or even more but why then is it possible for one to get an account under five minutes by paying 5 steem for it using @anonsteem or by using @blocktrades.
How about steemit Inc integrates such a good and faster registration services for free and then surely this will give a boost to the incoming number of people into the steem blockcahin

Steemit Inc should Pay for major advertisement about the steemit social media in order to make steemit more popular in the world

If the devs and CEO of steemit decides to spend much more money and go into major advertisement of steemit by paying for google ads, Youtube, facebook, twitter, instagram reddit ads etc. and makes it consistent for more than a year+, then population will explode exponentially like a wildfire if and only if the waiting period will also be reduced. Yes, it will be because of the ability of steemit to reward it's users on their platform that will go a long way to convince and introduce more people into the use of other cryptocurrencies and the blockchain itself.
Steemit should be advertised beyond rewarding it's users but as an important socail tool that one can use to build and develop or even use for good business.
It's should also be advertised like a blockchain where you can pitch your abilities and talent, Maybe not for the reward everytime but to develop.
This can get more passionate steemians down here who are ready go stay for as long as they can.

Making the frontend experience of steemit.com more simple and sociable:

When I first heard about steemit last year 2017, I learnt that "steemit a social media platform that rewards users for creating contents online by following the protocol of the logic calculated into the reward pool of the steem blockchain that permits their users to reward each other by upvoting a post".
That sounded very simple and less complicated to me until I opened an account.
I had to undergo a series of self-tutorials before I could understand what I need to do in order to make a good post on steemit.
A friend of mine, a medical doctor whom I introduced few months ago told me that he understands steemit to be a reddit competitor and the website is somewhat more technical to be called a social media but instead it should be called a "blockchain microblog" because a tech savvy person seems to find it much easier to use steemit than other people who would also want to use it. He further said. "which good social makes the users to use markdowns
when creating a post?"

Apart from the FAQs there should be a tutorial channel for new steemians that show video and written tutorials on how steemit should can be used to create quality contents, most especially the use of markdowns.

Top rated social media platforms like twitter, facebook, instagram etc are quite very easy for anybody to open an account in a day and also start using with relative ease the same day, just after undergoing some KYC verification

Aside rewarding it users when will steemit be made much more better than the top 5 social media?
Is this whole game about steemit or just steem itself?

Sort:  

Then what will be the fate of no one does anything about it

Let us believe that it will get better

There's always a first step to success. It doesn't just come rapidly.
Even facebook started with "the wall before it could evolve into the number 1 social media which we have today

Yeah that is true.
Back in 2005 Facebook started with the wall meant for social post

Yeah. Good suggestions. But steemit is slowly replacing the free slow sign up process with pay and register. I don't know if this is the right step to follow

Maybe it is right or maybe not

@empato365 the truth is you're right. A lot of things has to change, however I think it's because steemit is still in beta mode, that's why a whole lot of things hasn't been implemented.

Yeah! maybe...
But why on the beta mode for so long?

Well it's been two years, I think @ned is starting to make a statements considering changes on the blockchain

Hola amigo!
I personally stopped posting and did more of commenting to get steem power then focus on my cryto trading until I can buy enough steem power and be back

Steemit=steempower and that is the white truth

You shouldn't stop posting
Hardwork pays

That's a great one my dear friend that's helpful discussion about steemit and this is helpful post for steemians I appreciate your post thanks a lot for sharing this post .

Okay
thank you

You have given some very nice suggestions for the success of steemit olatform. We all should also work on popularising it ourselves by sharing our steel it experience with people and persuade them to become new users.

Yeah sharing only the good experience can atually encourage

The blockhain is just that way.

Jusy like we had first generations of computers we will have other generations of the blockchain

Lol
so which generation is the steem blokcchain?

We would absolutely explode if there was a massive media effort. It is why there was talk of banning crypto advertising.

Specifically, the young, exploratory culture will aid our growth. Because of the relative impatience of this group, I believe we need Steemit 2.0 for that. You know, smiley faces, heart buttons, better management tools for followers and posts...

As always, keep me in mind of any Steem crypto promo project. Thanks for the lift @empato365

Alright let's hope that the best will come one day
You're welcome

My bro, @empato365. Your ideas are great and amazing. But, the steemit platform, truth be spoken is actually broken. It's system is no longer favourable to the newbie coming in.

I do have friends that I have introduced Steem and it's global adoption. And after a lot of talking and lecturing, they finally joined and they aren't happy with the outcome of there post.

And especially, the issue of the password, is no longer encouraging atall, and the duration of payment should be addressed as possible.

Am not giving up, on the betterment of SteemIt brother. Cause am believing that the new upgrade will curb the faults that came with the old SteemIt. But, till then let's keep doing what needs to be done to make Steem, SteemIt and steemjet great.

Well. It's devastating
You only have to encourage them never to give up steeming. Better days are coming

You are right brother. Better days are coming. It's all about seeing the vision from an eagles eye view.
