@elipowell, I want to propose one more practical method which can bring more revenue to STEEMIT INC., upload daily or weekly videos on STEEMIT's Youtube Channel. Grow your subscriber base. You can simply do a blog post here and everyone will join the YouTube channel if they haven't. Probably make a separate id to upload videos on @dtube and leave the YT's link as well.

Ways to make money on YouTube:

• YouTube Monetization. 1000 Subscribers and 4000 hours watch time in past 12 months. Apply for it.
• Once you have enough subscribers let's just say 10,000 - it will open up a new arena for you guys to market other projects and products online. You could get sponsorship or investors who would like to put their money in for the services you can provide through social media channels you have.
• You can even promote your other product and services in future.

Why this is beneficial

• You will get paid for talking about Blockchain, DApps, Cryptocurrency, STEEM, Steemit and what not.
• Steemit as a brand will stand out. I think no other Blockchain project is focused so much on Social Media like we are.
• You will build assets outside STEEMverse as well.
• Livestreams on YouTube have option for viewers to donate money. So when you use Vimm or 3Speak or Dtube to live stream, do it on YT as well. You need to set this up first.

Honestly speaking, you can run Youtube Ads and get even 50k Subscribers quickly. The question is, would you guys be able to put up regular content on YouTube? If you are regular, you will start getting views since we already have an audience who can give you decent watch time.

We are in a social media ecosystem and STEEM is not the only one. Target other's as well. Use its full potential.

This is what you guys can practically do which can benefit not just Steemit Inc., but the whole community.

There has been 2 videos uploaded in the last 10 days. Upload probably 50 or 100 by the end of this year. What if we hit a million views on YouTube? How massive that would be.
