I really miss referral in steemit, as everywhere you go there is a button to refer a friend.

Why is it bad idea to get one for steemit? i don't see one. We all know growth depends on the amounts.
As steemit started payouts the growth skyrocketed, yes that's true. Now after a month like 2/3 of the members aren't active anymore.
Why is that, definitely they could't earn by posting, or they were not ready to invest into something new.
Even so 1/3 of all have stayed and successfully blogging or have invested and watching how the investment grows at the same time curating.


Now lets get back to referrals, i have a wast amount of imagination. I see steemit adverts/banners everywhere i go it is what i imagine. That would definitely attract the ones who haven't discovered steemit yet. And i am certain there's millions who don't know about steemit.

But how to make it possible you say. Well as for now only people who promote steemit is to make a good post, that is connected to steemit and earn money from that. But its just a temporary thing, ok so you made steemit balloons and went to the beach. I see the point it does look cool, you made some nice pics and such. That's it the idea is forgotten and you earned thousands of $$$.


Let's implement a system that does actually pay for  referring. 

What would that be, well as i have seen many referral systems before it seem logic to me to give a certain % from referral. Then again i don't see big numbers such as okay you referred someone into steemit he joined and made a post, he earned $10 on his first post as the payout happened you got the merely 3% share of his post. What is 0.30$ its okay saying that you got them for free. Now if a person made a post and earned 3000$ you get a 300$ share of it.
What is not likely to happen.

Now The system is working and everyone is adversiting it all over the internet. People are flowing into steemit, amount of posts increasing, but so does the amount of upvoters. And if new people are coming as they find out what steemit is some of them will decide to invest instead of blogging.

And you who's going to refer all them people wont feel like why would i spend my money on ads and get nothing in exchange, as someone already made a post with ads being put into coinmarketcap.com so its not likely anyone will upvote my work.

I personally don't think this will harm steemit, it should actually allow steemit to grow. And well it gives another option as for now you can be: Investor, blogger and it would ad referrals who are going to stay there as they earn them 3% of every he referred.


What do you think about it? @dan @ned i believe it's your call to do it or not.
