This is the Daily Top 10 Trending posts on Steemit.

It forms a history of what was deemed important enough to be included in the first posts new visitors see on the Steemit Platform. Yes, it's our advertising to the world so we'd better hope it's good.

But as a twist I'm also going to reveal if those posts are using self-promotion to get to the front page.

So let's jump straight into it.
