Steemit Founders and Early Adopters are Pioneers but The Masses are Arriving.
I Want to Congratulate All the Early Users of Steemit.
All the trials that we went through as a community are now paying dividends. It is not easy being a pioneer. Making a new path instead of taking the old worn out road is difficult. People thought we were crazy, accused us of being part of a Ponzi scheme and generally treated Steemit as a scam. Now we are reaping the rewards of having the ability to stick with something.
I know the pendulum is swinging towards huge growth because I am seeing many of my social media peers joining Steemit. These people are the ones who have hundreds of thousands of followers across social media. They will carry the Steemit banner far and wide. Steemit links will soon be found on every major social media site on the internet.
The one thing I found lacking on the platform was the lack of sharing content across the web. There is no easier way to attract people than to share our content externally. If you keep your content within the Steemit bubble then the only chance for others to see your content organically is via Google Search and that takes time.
Sharing across other social media platforms can have immediate rewards via more views. The long term rewards are that people begin to regularly visit Steemit and then sign up. This is exactly what happened to me with Medium.
Don't Forget to Share Your Steemit Content Across the Web and Leave a Trail.

Im really waiting for the blow up moment like the hard fork 19.
I can feel that steemit is going to be something major in the upcoming years and to some extent a rival to Facebook.
Cheers for the amazing article and I wish you all the best in your steem adventure friend :)
See you on the moon.

To see Steemit come even close to Facebook would be amazing. Yet I have to wonder if the rewards per post/comment/upvote will decrease with more people on the platform.
Facebook will become myspaced by Steemit. It may take some time but these days things can happen much quicker than we imagine. Here's to the new normal! Followed ya.
I would love too see Steemit becoming more successful than Facebook or Youtube!
Lets work hard and share Steem links everywhere and keep on producing amazing content that everyone will love.
Let's do it man!
You the man @hilarski! The time is now, I wouldn't even be on here without you boss! Let me use my maximum power on this 😂😂😂
well thank you too :)
Hey I just saw this on Twitter! Can you check out my last tweet or shared post? Trying to help out a member in need. You are 100% right and steemit is about to blow up like crazy!
When ( not if!!) the Steemit link is as well known as the FB or Twitter ones we will all reap the rewards!
Yes, share share share outside of steemit! More and make people from my network are signing up - even if it's "just to have a look" at first.
Do we know how many accounts are being opened per day? Is there a way to check that? I know we had a big backlog a couple of weeks back. Just that fact alone shows how steemit is going viral at the moment.
I don't know the exact numbers but it is growing exponentially. Six months ago we had 1200 or so active users now we get more than that signing up daily.
Wow, yes and with more and more Chinese users joining - that must be a LOT - great way to show how strong our blockchain is and how much traffic it can handle ;)
Money talks! Everyone who is blogging out there for nothing will eventually hear about and move over to STEEM.
I couldn't agree with you more @hilarski. Normally when people post something on Facebook, they share it on every other media platform they own.... I know most of the Steemit community doesn't like using other social media platforms, but everyone we need to start! Use it to market the Steemit Brand! It will help every current Steemian using this platform :)
When you feel your Steemit stories are not getting the attention they deserve then sharing them on other social media sites will in fact send more visitors which makes it more worth wile spending your precious time writing new original content.
Great stories can actually be promoted on sites like Facebook for pennies if you really want to boost your Steemit views.
Absolutely, Facebook ads were a tactic I used for years. I always promoted them in locations that were low cost.
