Just found this post seconds after posting one that kind of continues that discussion, which I'm tagging #the30daydeath :) As a freelance content writer, SEO's been the name of the game for the past decade (even though the particulars of best practices are constantly changing) - it's hard to even wrap my mind around a platform that doesn't somehow hinge on searchability. It'll be interesting to watch as Steemit grows and shifts throughout its beta days.
