RE: Stuck at 2100 ranking : how we can push steemit into the top 2000 on Alexa
Article length is something that gives me mixed emotions here on steemit.
On the one hand we are told that steemit values well written, fully researched, in depth articles. But on the other hand we can see many examples of people getting just as big rewards with very short posts of a few lines and a couple of photos.
Unless the payout period is lengthened to say one year to reward long articles that have a long term usefulness, the direction of travel will be towards the short, quick hit article. But that will just head steemit towards becoming just another Facebook look a like.
The effort v reward equation does have to kick in.
Heck this reply is probably longer than half the new posts that have gone out while I've been typing it 😊
