Ah...Promotion page. I almost forgot about it. We pondered a lot over it 2 years ago and I just came to know that nothing has been done in this regard.
I like your proposals - they seem doable and effective. Particularly the "weekly guide" one.
I'm not sure how "realrobinhood" posts are sorted. Promoting top 5 is a good idea but I don't think some top posts should be in promoted. It will be like trending page all over again. We need high-quality, creative and useful posts there.
I also think that if there were to be a team of Steem Angels, it should be kept anonymous. Especially if sc01/02 decides to support the promoted section again.😛
Speaking of which, I also think steemitblog should consider burning their rewards for post promotions (posts nominated by Steem Angels or Community Curators perhaps).
I hope they don't mind since most authors are burning their hard-earned rewards, the team ought to show some solidarity because they are significant members of the community and mostly because they are the ones who promoted the idea of burning. 😛
Good thinking. I automatically just started promoting the top 5 but I agree with you and a better strategy would be not to include bid-bot users (checking them in my interface before promoting them).
Or they're people like me who are immune to the beggars 😉
I think @tronbeary was going to mention this at some point... I wonder what happened to him 🤔
That would be ideal because I know how immune-pro-max you are. 😆
We want that jolly beary back. 😛
I think he's a bit tied up right now!
