The @null.promoted experiment.

in #burned5 years ago (edited)




The idea is to give more exposure to Steem's amazing built in post promotion system by replicating the content of the top promoted from https://steemit.com/promoted/ onto a dynamic post promoted into the regular trending.

The service checks every 60 seconds if the top /promoted/ post has changed and will replicate it's content within the fire bar template.
Every 24h a new post is created and may get promoted into regular trending using @Steemium promotion tool.

The previous post will be become frozen therefore there is an extra benefits to being the last to burn promote a post.
If any distasteful content like pornography end up in a frozen post (after 24h) the post will be edited.

Each replicated post include a header that give credit to the author and link to it's post.

A footer explain the post content is dynamic and that the comments on content may become irrelevant.
Any profit is earned from upvotes will be kept and used to pay for further promotion.

To get your content more visibility using this promotion method simply send SBD (not STEEM) to @null account with the memo of the permalink of your post. The permalink is what's after steemit.com/tag/

For example the permalink of:
https://steemit.com/palnet/@buckydurddle/around-the-block-with-guest-elizabeth-powell-of-steemit-inc-episode-1
is
@buckydurddle/around-the-block-with-guest-elizabeth-powell-of-steemit-inc-episode-1


To know how much to burn to get your post up top click there :

To Steemit.com 1 SBD = 1 USD so > 0.210 SBD in this case.

Thank you.

Not sure if cloning of the post is the way to go as that may affect SEO having duplicate content and may look like PLG, it could lead to instances where both are on trending if bidbots were used to promote it by the author, perhaps a summary of promoted posts like the organic steem post might be a better approach.

This is a very genuine concern. Strangely, no one bothered to reply to it!!!

Wonderful! It is good to have another tribe. The more the better ...

Addendum : If any distasteful content like pornography end up in a frozen post (after 24h) the post will be edited.

That's quite clever, I'll follow it and see what it yields. I'm interested to see how much people use the promoted feature after this.
