they have not heard about STEEMIT/STEEMIT coin, from friends or other social media platforms nor seen Steemit been displayed inform of Google Ads on most websites and applications.

Very correct Steemit is not display on Google and alot of people do ask about it.

The fact is that in order for Steemit to be well known in any country, there most be promotion that will capture more users to Steemit. In those days, anything promotion is usually done via radio, television, postcard, flyer an ad in the news or a brochure. Today, promotion are hardly done in these ways because promoting your business using the old means will only attract less customers that are just within your area.

You are correct we need to do our promotion in a different way and I believe this will attract alot of users to the community.

Search Engines promotion (Google search or Google ad)

Social Media Promotion (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Tiktok and YouTube)

Local Community Promotion (Mouth to Mouth, Events, Press and Sponsorships)

Organizing an Annual conference (just as SteemFest)

All this point mention are all good point for promotion. And some of them are already implemented it only needs to be active.

I love reading your entry it really makes sense
