@joshman, Absolutely, if it's just about **Steem** related posts then eyes will consume boredom and if it's effective **Diversification** then eyes will going to consume **Interest**. Stay blessed.

I'll take a look at it, thanks for the link. Hope it's not another Whaleshares.

I think you make some very valid points about attracting outsiders to Steem. I also think your marketing and utilization of content is very good idea. I think your focus on the goal of maximizing the monetization of your work is one we should all share. I also think that the focus on content which appeals to a wide audience is the path to growth for you and Steem. You plan should be emulated and where possible modified.
Thank you for sharing. 

By the way your title is a great hook. 👏

I get your point, but I'd rather see something along the lines of 50/50% if possible. This of course also requires the content to be of value. The reason for this is quite simple: if we're able to attract smart people to Steem, who blog about Steem, develop about Steem, create projects on Steem, then Steem will rise in value.

Somebody just coming here, even if he's already popular on other media, will not work out, unless he produces content specifically tailored for Steem. (doesn't mean it has to be **about** Steem) And even then, it doesn't mean it's going to be successful. Just take a look at Furious Pete: https://steemit.com/furiouspete/@furiouspete123/hi-i-m-furious-pete-testing-this-platform

He came here, tried some original stuff, did okay. Then he tried to upload old videos to reap the rewards, but people didn't like that so he stopped. But why should people like it when people just repost old-stuff, they can already find somewhere else?

Let's take @theycallmedan as example. He's producing content about the crypto market, but you only **only** find this content on Steem. He's producing valuable content, which people can only get here, and that's valuable for Steem.

Yeah I an pick you out, you're the black swan! lol

I've said since I first found this place: Steem has to become about something other than just Steem. People won't flock to a place to consume content about.... that place. 
How come you got flagged? Lame.
