You can make Steemit go Viral! Here is How!
You can make Steemit go Viral very easily and it would not take anything extraordinary. It would take only a little bit of effort from every Steemit user, and Steemit would become the nr. 1 social media very quickly. Steemit has a huge advantage over Facebook, Twitter and Reddit, because it is the only platform that pays people. The only thing Steemit lacks is people, and that is not a problem, it can be fixed with a simple thing called:
The Share Button:
All you need to do is press that Share button, and share the articles you read with your audience on other social media websites. Don't be shy, share the articles you like / read on other social media, and help Steemit become more popular!
Although Reddit is not listed there, but you should also post the articles on Reddit in a
linkform, to various subreddits. Reddit has a huge audience, and it would be easy to bring people here from there if people would post their or other's articles there to the corresponding subreddit.Don't just share your posts on social media, share other's posts too! This is the key, if everyone here leverages his social media power, and starts sharing eachother's posts, we could go viral pretty fast with that kind of media power.
Share my posts too! I write about money, finance and cryptocurrencies. Don't be shy to share all my posts on Reddit to various subreddits related to money or finance. You can even copy+paste my articles there in text pots, but you should put a link there linking back to the original article on Steemit. Who knows maybe my money related posts will bring big investors into Steem, we cannot know if we don't try!
The point is, that in this interconnected age of internet, we can spread information very fast, and it would be trivial to reach the size of Facebook, but for that we need everyone to participate. You know Facebook grow to the size it is today because people started signing up their friends to it. If we do this same strategy on Steemit we could go viral in no-time!
Upvote, ReSteem & 
People already are sharing. The problem is that sites like Facebook are blocking peoples followers from seeing what they share.
Use url shorteners perhaps, maybe they have flagged certain urls, so use url shortener to obfuscate the original url.
Good idea had not thought of that:)
Unfortunately fb is censoring my posts. :-(
Try using url shorteners, at this point steemit.com is probably shadowbanned on FB as many people have reported.
Try using url shorteners and let's outsmart their censorship!
I like your thinking, yet SteemIt has one thing better than FB ever will have ... Me!
I have access to about 5000 direct viewers and 25000 secondary viewers on Google Plus but there's no button for it. I don't mind copying and pasting the address, but by now you would think we would have a button.
Well yes the Share button could be extended with Reddit Post, Google+ , SoundCloud, Instagram, you name it.
Different artists and content producers here for different platforms, this is how Steemit would grow like a web.
Very good idea. Together we can Move Steem forward.
