Steemit Should Allow Steem Power for Promoting Posts

in promotions •  8 years ago 


I really do not know how simple I have to put it... But steem power should be allowed to be spent to promote posts. I currently have two options right now... continue to build my steem power or to power down. 

I would love the option to pay a little towards promoting posts I have. 

What are your thoughts?

i like the idea.. perhaps this is something for the future. i followed you. if your interested in art it would be nice u check my blog out. perhaps u find some nice art that u will like :) <3 kalipo keep it on

I like this idea. When the feature came out I wanted to test it and promote an article while it was still cheap and I had to buy SD with bitcoin to do so. Bah

The way it is makes sense. Just like a magazine sells ad space.

65+ reputation is the only possible promotion nowadays. Otherwise no one will consider your post worthy of voting, promoted or not.

I disagree, it has worked fine for us with my account and my wife's account. It is hit or miss.

Absolutely. I used my SD to buy more Steem Power. I think we should have the option to use Steem Power to promote posts.

you can always convert from one to the other.

Kind of defeats the point of SteemPower. If I want to promote a post on any other social network I have to pay for it with money on my cc, money in Paypal or debit card.

this would allow whales to rigid the game I am not a fan of this.
