RE: Supporting minnows & Crypto Indexes
We are quite new to the platform only joined in March (so real Noobs!), and actually our main way of browsing steemit is to look at our feed which contains people we follow (our curation I guess) and the "New" tab! We do it a lot on Steepshot (which is the main platform we use at this stage) and found it actually more valuable as "Trending" and "Hot".
Often it is less inflated by bot voting, it means there is not yet influence on the post and make then purer for us to curate and consume.
There is obviously a lot of poor content but it's the same in "trending" really :-)
I would suggest not looking at the trending or hot pages. I would focus on one good post per day, tell a story that is interesting with 6+ good photos. (Not a crappy off center, blurry, unbalanced shot)
Many people do not have time to read a chapter, so a lot of photos usually do well with some commentary. That is how I'm posting, but I'm no whale...
Yeah we definitely don't focus on trending or hot pages as we haven't found it brings up good quality content.
We've been supporting Steepshot so we mainly post of steepshot so that is one photo and we accompany our post with a well crafted short story.
Steepshot as just launched multi-photo post so we may give it a go when it's relevant :-)
As you said not many people have a lot of time and so I'm no big fan of long long post either unless I guess it's more of a guide.
