RE: What is the true nature of Steemit, as a venue? Steemit Community Roundtable
I would strongly recommend presenting Steemit as a "censorship free content site" rather than a "money making venture."
This is what I've been thinking, too. The difference is really big with people who are attracted by these marketing points.
Indeed. The problem with the phrase "Get paid to..." is that it draws people who don't really care WHAT they are getting "paid" for... so they often have zero passion for the actual venue they are part of. If you attract someone simply because they expect "a great content site," they are more likely passionate about great content... as a result of which they add to the value of the venue.
