RE: 💬 Promoting WOX's Top Commenters

in WORLD OF XPILAR3 years ago

Thank you - I've written 2 examples already. The one I've posted is a compilation of football / soccer related tags which I'll post in World of Football and I've also written one for World Of Xpilar which I'll post later today. Because it takes posts that are "older" and over a 2 day period, it's designed to have to wait at least 2 days before posting in the same community.

I'm quite proud of it - it took most of the day yesterday to write the script. It doesn't require human intervention (although I'm checking the posts before they're posted for now) and upvotes all of the posts that are in the list.

It also provides a 20% beneficiary to whichever community's being posted in so hopefully the communities will support it too.

I'm proud of you too 😁 It is very good for Steemit and for all of us that you remembered that you are a programmer, not just a football fan, anti-plagiarist and blogger. But despite everything, I miss the gorilla blogger.

How far do you think you are now from writing a proposal? A month, six months, a year?

It's hard to say - I've got the components in place to know that rewriting the site is within my skillset so I need to decide how far to take the Proof of Concept. the-mrs-gorilla goes back to work tomorrow so I'll have some time to myself for the first time in 2 years which hopefully means I'll be able to do more.

I'm wondering if I should start hooking more pages together or focus my attention on the community page which I've already started. I'm finding the tag cloud so useful for finding content that I'm interested in, it'll be cool to be able to share it with others.

In my opinion, you should focus on the community page. Community pages are the most visited and needed. People are impatient by nature, so it would be good to finish, for example, a community page and show the result to the general public.

👍🏼 And I could always hand-off to steemit.com for people to interact with the post to start off with.
