RE: The potential brilliance behind SteemPress-io
Short term, thanks to our delegation and ability to vote on you, using SteemPress should be more profitable than not unless you make consistently more than 100 per post.
Medium-long term, we are considering a pro-version that may come at a low subscription fee but where we remove the benefactor rewards on that account completely. This is something we are looking at and would be happy to hear thoughts from the users of what they think is reasonable and also what results they have experienced in terms of the profitability of using SteemPress. We obviously want it to be a win-win situation.
Sounds interesting with you and your partner's blog! I don't mind if you link drop me your first few posts once you get up and going so that I can make sure your blog is verified as not being spam / plagiarized content, which will help you receive better votes.
Well, in our particular case, it really lowers the barrier of bringing her here at all, so 80% is still 100% more than none. So maybe we can be a good data-gatherer for you to set your prices in the future. She's finishing a novel this week so we might not be getting to it immediately, even though all she really has to do is an introduceyourself post.
I don't know if there's a reasonable way to offer a better deal for people like Taraz who have Steem accounts but just want a better composing system, vs. people like my partner who have existing Wordpress blogs and can use this as a gateway to Steem. It seems like it's worth way more in the second case.
I like that idea.
