On January 17th, 2017 Steemit.com was featured on Forbes.com! Author, Roger Aitken covers the 2017 comprehensive roadmap for Steemit.com. 

The big news surrounds the Steemit.com migration to Amazon Web Services, the world's largest hosting provider. Steemit has racked up over 120,000 registered users in around 6 months and they need to be able to handle more traffic as the platform grows.  Amazon Web Services and their Elastic Compute Cloud is a great choice.  Jeff Bezos has built Amazon into an empire of excellent service and products.

Steemit Co-founder & CEO, Ned Scott is quoted several times throughout the article: 

 “2017 will be our banner year and the community will see a ton of upgrades from now until the end of March. Migrating hosting to reputable third parties allows us to focus all of our time and attention on development of the site, software, and community – not on scaling or maintaining servers or hosting infrastructure.” 

Steemit Was Featured In FORBES, Here Is What You Need To Do Now:

Forbes is a name and a brand that almost everyone has heard of.  Forbes has 37 international editions that provide information to the world’s business leaders and entrepreneurs. 

For some, Steemit.com is now on their radar. Not everyone can be a first mover on a new technology or idea. Forbes is now recognizing Steemit and many more people will now be exploring Steemit.com to see what all the buzz is about.

As a community, let's keep making awesome content to blow their socks off.
