We want SteemPeak.com to be the most intuitive site for interacting on STEEM.
INTUITIVE DESIGN FIRST
Intuitive design means that a NEW user should be able to come in and just understand how it works and not need to read or watch videos to understand how things work.
STILL NEED EDUCATION
BUT... we still understand the need for EDUCATION.
Intuitive design usually focuses on HOW ... but often people love understanding WHY?
There are some questions we think beginning (maybe experienced) users will still have because the world of Steem and Blockchain is still a new and different place.
We already have about 15 questions we're considering. Like:
- What is Keychain? And why is Keychain good?
- What is SteemConnect?
- What is Steem? What are the benefits of Steem?
- What is blockchain?
- What does the Steem rewards system function?
- Why is there so much emphasis on security on Steem compared to most websites?
- What should I know about these keys? ("passwords")
- What are the guiding principles of SteemPeak?
- Can I get rich quick and easily on Steem?
- What are the future plans of SteemPeak?
SUBMIT YOUR QUESTION
Think of what a new user really wants to know about.
Maybe even show the site to someone who has no clue about any of this and ask them what their biggest questions are.
Also for bonus points... ANSWER the questions in the comments.
Or answer the questions we have up above as well.
THE GOAL
We will try to make sure we can field a list of good questions and answers that make them feel educated AND not overwhelmed.
WITNESS AND CONTACTS
What is a witness? (That's a good one for the FAQ perhaps?)
"Witness is a weird word for a block producer on Steem. The more votes they have from users like you (in particular large stake holders) the more blocks they'll produce. In addition the top 20 help determine the version of software and the price of steem we decide to use... among several other things.Witness is the name for a block producer on Steem... the more votes you have the more blocks you produce.

How can I stake STEEM as Steem Power?
What is Steem Dollar (SBD)?
Where is my Steem Wallet on Steempeak?
Can I delete a post or comment I posted?
Does Steempeak take a cut (fee) for using Steempeak?
In what currency are rewards displayed on Steempeak?
Where do I find my current Voting Mana and Resource Credits info on Steempeak?
What are Voting Mana and Resource Credits?
I posted an article on steempeak but now it’s showing on some other websites like steemit busy how is it possible did they steal it ?
Can I still earn when my post gets upvotes on those other websites ?
K great point... Let me think about how I can answer that.
Where else will my posts be seen besides SteemPeak?
I'll jump in and ask some questions I've seen people asking:
How can I find interesting content?
How can I get more viewers for my post?
My friend needs an account, is there a fast way to get an account for them?
I could answer these too, but I'm too hungry and tired for that.
posted with wrong account... just a sec
Awesome ... actually have one of them already in the upcoming FAQ.
Our sign up method is pretty slick if you haven't seen it lately... which you probably haven't needed an account lately so i'm guessing you haven't.
And our next release will be really solid for finding interesting content... or at least a good step in that direction. But if you think we still need that question let us know after.
