Today I just launched a new website!
SteemEconomy.com
What is SteemEconomy.com?
SteemEconomy.com is an up-to-date list of businesses that accept STEEM/SBD as a form of payment.
The main goals of this website are to:
- Provide Steemians with an easy-to-use interface where they can find all of the places to spend their hard-earned STEEM/SBD.
- Help support the Steem economy by connecting Steem-based businesses with potential customers.
- Encourage more business owners to start accepting STEEM/SBD as a form of payment.
What is the status of the project?
So far, I have collected over 50 businesses including coffee shops, restaurants, online stores, graphic designers, hosting companies, and more!
"Version 1.0" now is officially live!
Version 1.0 has:
- A directory of over 50 businesses accepting STEEM/SBD as a form of payment.
- A list of exchanges that support STEEM/SBD.
- Instructions for merchants on how to start accepting STEEM/SBD.
- A form for users to make suggestions and submit new businesses to be added.
What is the future of the project?
As the community and Steem economy continue to grow, SteemEconomy.com is planning to grow with it.
As new businesses such as SteemMonsters start up, and existing businesses decide to tap into our amazing community, it will be easy to add them to the site.
I'd like this to be the "go-to" place for anyone looking to spend their STEEM/SBD.
Looking for feedback
Please let me know what you think so far. Suggestions are welcome. Also, if you know of any businesses that need to be added site, please let me know.
You can make suggestions using the website's contact form, or you can reach out to me in the comments below, on steem.chat, or Discord.
Awesome!
Great to see a list of everyone on the SteemPowered train!
The Garden Of Eden has been accepting Steem for over 1.5 years before even peerehub existed.
We also have over 100 hand made SteemGear designs available for Steem and over 1000 unique items available
More than anyplace I’m earth!
To SteemFinity and beyond!

Asbear announced recently that he is building a directory of real life businesses accepting Steem/SBD as well.
Maybe combined, and also with the efforts happening in the promo-steem community an API can be built. That benefits everyone. :)

clearly the reputation that the users give to the company speaks very well of the service that they provide to the buyer.
as you say the comments of the users who have already used any of the companies in steemeconomy.com would be very helpful at the time of buying with our steem ..

Tim, this is great. I am on the site and I like it. I'm over at Mike's Jewelry now! So far it is easy to navigate your site and click through to the business'.
I imagine as more business' are added you might need to list them differently on the home page so it dosen't get to hectic.
So glad to see this, can't wait to browse. Thanks!

A lot of Etsy store owners are just allowing people to contact them via Etsy to arrange STEEM/SBD payments.

That's a great idea @timcliff!
The great benefit here would seem to be that people can use their smaller amounts of Steem/SBD inside the community, without having to go to fiat via an external exchange, which inevitably costs.
I could easily see this becoming a two-way flow, with "SteemEconomy" serving both as a directory, as well as a portal to help potential merchants by showing the the available options like @steembay, @steemshop, @peerhub and others. Although that might be outside the scope of what you had in mind, I don't know.

Hey, @timcliff. So, this is basically a site that is gathering the businesses taking STEEM as payment and providing access to them from one site. Is there any ongoing courting of businesses going on at all (i guess that would fall into a marketing category of some sort), or is this just as they do accept STEEM, you will add them to the site?

Do you have a sense of what the most effective methods for taking payments in Steem are? It might be useful to have a review of them on the site for companies that want to start taking Steem.
I'll happily sell photographs for Steem but at this point I'm only doing it manually. (Which is most of how I do it in USD as well.)

Hello Tim!
Thank you for including the Air-Clinic project on SteemEconomy website.
I have a suggestion on the categorization.
Since it's healthcare-related it would be nice if it has it's own unique category. Maybe together with other Health-related stuff.
"Services" is too broad. I guess you are still fine-tuning it. Also on it's own page you said "pls contact the shop owner". Lol. It sounds weird to refer to a hospital as a shop.
Thank you once more!! It's a great initiative. Let's open up Steem to the world.
Cheers!💝
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

I removed "shop" from "shop owner" so it reads better now.
I initially had the categories more granular, but there were a lot of categories with one item. It may make more sense to do that after the economy grows a little more and we have multiple of each.

@timcliff, First of all i want to appreciate your work because you've developed this website which will going to give more boost to Steem Economy for sure.
And yes, we have to see Steem and SBD as Medium Of Exchangesbecause in that way we can increase the usability aspects of these tokens.
And yes, if Steem Economy grows then inturn we will going see the needed growth because, in that way the value of Steem and SBD will going to increase and inturn adoption will going to increase.
And for sure if i have any feedbacks or suggestions then for sure i will share. Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. 🙂

This could be great for the value of Steem. Social media needs to integrate with the marketplace, in order to increase profitability. Everyone that wants see Steem rise, should get behind this, and provide support any way they can. One person can't do everything, so we all need to pitch in any help make these projects successful. Let's start several conversations, and collaborate for the common good.
When other websites are launched, we need to support them the best we can, if we want to see the price of Steem rise.
