RE: MARKETING STEEM # 1 : Do we need a Steem PR service?

in #steem7 months ago

I think it's a good idea and definitely worth a try. Will it be effective? I don't know, I remember similar attempts at the beginning of Steemit's existence (because I registered here only two months after the official launch), which were then repeated several times. Was it useful in terms of attracting new users and investors? Hard to say. I remember how Steemit faced a very serious crisis after the first year of its existence, when its price dropped to seven cents, and there were only a few hundred active bloggers left on the platform, and I was among them. Then the hype began with the growth of the crypto market in 2017 and many people returned, because it was possible to make good money here on the wave of hype. Yes, many of them did not bring anything valuable to the ecosystem, and this again caused a crisis by buying votes (this was once a common practice here). This eventually led to a blockchain fork, as two different camps formed with different approaches to the development of the Steemit ecosystem, and that's okay. It's just great that the world of cryptocurrencies makes it possible to resolve conflicts in this way, instead of starting wars where tens of thousands of people die. I was sure that the people left in Steemit would not be able to save the day. But I was wrong and I admit that I was wrong. Here began to form its own unique ecosystem with a structured curation system, which began to filter out many low-quality and frankly garbage posts. And that's what I think attracts new and old users, because I'm back here after a few years of absence, and I regret that I wasted a lot of time building such a great site where people can freely express their opinions and get paid for it. Perhaps it is worth talking about this when promoting Steemit on other platforms.

Yes pre-fork 'Old Steem' and post-fork 'New Steem' are really quite different with a different community and different ways of working. I am very happy that Steem survived the 'big split' as at the time it was very uncertain which way it would go.

That split is now part of Steem's unique story - surviving and I hope thriving.

It is a story we can tell the world through PR to attract new people to enjoy what we are building here.

Indeed, this story is worth telling, how to rise from one's knees after the darkest of times. I hope that here in Ukraine we too are at such a point in history that we will remember one day with tears in our eyes and sadness in our hearts, but with confidence in the bright present and beautiful future.
