We need content from within Steemit to go internet-viral.

This could be something a developer could work up a solution for.

We need to break out of this Steembubble we seem to be in. Things that go viral on Steemit don't seem to be cared about anywhere else. To me, it seems to be because that content rarely actually gets seen anywhere else.

It feels like we've got this "home field" mentality about the things we post on Steemit, but if we can push the best content we have here out to the internet at large, we stand to bring a lot of attention here.

In my previous post, Better Steemit Promotion: Ask people what it is, don't tell them, I proposed an advertising campaign that simply asks "What is Steemit?" with intention to ignite public curiosity. One way to help feed that curiosity is for Steemit's members to share content on other platforms, such as Facebook, Reddit, or whatever your preferred social networks are.

Sometimes you'll hear around the Steemit community that this place is one big circle jerk. We could eliminate that problem if we help as much content here as possible go viral globally.

So, developers, I have a question for you...

How hard would it be to create something which people could voluntarily connect their Facebook/Reddit/Twitter/Other Social Media accounts to which would allow Steemit to share favored articles automatically to their pages?

I, for one, would be okay with something like this myself because I feel the outside world needs to see the content that gets posted here, and to see that - holy crap - they're making MONEY!!!

When we tell people about Steemit, so far we've been telling them, "Here it is, here's what it does, and here's what you can do with it." What we haven't been doing (I don't feel) is showing them content that's already here. It's really, really good. If we can get people reading what's here, it might be enough to spark a fire in them to join up and post something of their own.
