I have a few suggestions that could really enhance Steemit, and possibly make the STEEM economy prosper.
1) Follow Button
I am getting tired of pasting follow me signatures in the bottom of the article, so a follow button should be added next to the PROMOTE button. Here is an idea how, a nice green button, that is easily visible (perhaps it could be other color).
Maybe the colors should be switched, the PROMOTE should be green, and the FOLLOW should be blue, as usually blue suggests trust, while green suggests money, so something like that.
2) Fixing the Inflation
The inflation is making the STEEM price go down, which is making STEEM a less popular cryptocurrency, and it's marketcap going down. It can be easily fixed with just changing the reward ratio, explained here:
3) Adding Ads
A simple 728x90 ad can be added between the comment section and an article. Users could advertise here with SBD. This would have the following benefits:
- Add value to SBD
- Add an income source to Steemit (a few percent commissions would go to Steemit)
- It would attract internet marketeers, this adding value to the whole STEEM economy
The system is explained here:
