I have always had this perception that to trend on steemit, there's got to be something bigger that is needed of a steemian. Thanks to you @thereikiforest for speaking in these words of @steemsecrets, revealing this unknown secret of great importance "value". No wonder why a lot of quality content writers finds it very difficult to trend, now i know that the value we one creates is the key to trend a post

Number 6. Some "post" may trend because there is "no resource" even on the entire web on the topic that post covered and it has been seen that such post, if found organically in the search engines, will do better in attracting sign-ups, if it earns substantially.

This point goes a long way to pinpoint the importance of originality and need for oven fresh ideas with unique points required when making a post in other for it to hit the trend.

Like you rightly said, while some cook up posts in minutes and some hours, some spend sleepless nights to source good detailed data information for a post which gives it edge over other and straight up to trending it skyrockets.

There are a lot more to contribute here, but i will like to stop here for now. Thanks once again for this thought provoking piece.

Thanks to @surpassinggoogle for @steemsecrets that now makes me to think like a whale.
