How to follow me and I follow you on steemit, Bright Light Spaceship by Craig Grant

Thats an awesome idea! Since i made a blog on follow me button: https://steemit.com/trending/@sgnsteems/follow-me-but-how
And we really cant follow people just yet...This is a great solution! Can we go back to our posts and edit them to add that tag? Thanks! @craig-grant

To be honest I don't know if this will work out that well in the grand scheme of things, hopefully they will make mute & follow features work soon.

It's because your post says "download my pdf" that's like the worst thing you can ask a blogger to do, your topic and content has to be worth someone using their voting power for it, the tag gets your post viewed, but there are no guarantees for upvotes or comments

A creative Idea, but I think that will create quite some problems as Steemit grows. As I understand the tags are for people that want to find different subject matters. Granted, this system is not working well yet, but give them time to up date it. Isnt your idea the same as just directing your fans to your blog page?

no, because the tag is not just for my posts, it's for anyone who uses the tag, so its my posts and all my friends posts, we all support each other

Im still trying figure out how the categorization system is meant to work. It is obvious that it is not currently working correctly on this beta version. From where I currently sit, I think what i would like to see are standard categories (not sure how they will implement this on decentralized system) and the fixing of the "follow" feature. I suspect the "follow" is on their list of fixes to be implemented soon. That said, I could be wrong so keep posted on your initiative. I'll be following with interest...

My approach is that as steemit grows, there will be a wide range of different types of bloggers with different types of mindsets. What we are doing with the #craigrant tag is like a Steep Power mining pool of positive people with similar interests

Promotion is inherent to any system like steem or facebook, or a publishing job in capitalism. Self promotion is good, group promotion is great, but it is left to the people to decide what to read in the end.

I dont see much of a way that new minows could get their content viewed unless we start working together to upvote our own good content. This is a partial solution to the whale problem. Much liked

You've inspired me to do the same- "cryptonews", so feel free to add that yourself, as I've already started using craigrant on my last post. Take care, Mr Grant!

Hay craig-grant :) The idea is pretty good as the problem is the biggest one for people who want to start a real blog.

But does it really help? If I tag my articles with your tag and you would not be interested in my content we have the same situation like before :o

I guess this would only help people that want you to read their content.

Btw I like your way of thinking about steemit Thumps up

at least I will get a chance to see your content, dont matter if I upvote or not, at least I get to see it, that's better than not seeing at all, that's the problem the tag will solve

I would personally very much welcome the option to follow an author directly from the post itself. I would imagine this would significantly affect the amount of people following one another - for the benefit of everyone. Win-win.
