Will SteemJ make getting hired for a job and posting a job as easy as posting on Steemit? After 1 week, what has happened since the initial launch at https://steemit.com/steemj/@jerrybanfield/2000-steem-prize-develop-steemj-com-for-steemit-freelancing ?
Thanks to a call today with @sarasate, the developer of https://www.steemdocs.com/ and Insteem, I learned that I need a concise summary of the key developer targets shared in bullet points followed by an explanation of how the developer is compensated on an ongoing basis along with a future roadmap. I hope to provide those for reading in less than five minutes starting now!
Developer key objectives for initial launch of SteemJ.
- Sign in via Steemit account and posting key as ChainBB by @jesta allows at https://beta.chainbb.com/.
- Make posts within SteemJ in a web browser similar to https://busy.org by @ekitcho and @fabien with the ability to schedule posts and either immediately or eventually collect a percentage of author rewards all going to the developer.
- Offer a homepage similar to http://news.insteem.com/ where browsing jobs, freelancers, steemgigs, and SteemJ posts is easy which also explains the purpose of SteemJ and has space for a YouTube tutorial I will create showing how to use it.
- Allow every profile page from steemit to be displayed as a profile on SteemJ as featured above.
- Google analytics tracking on all pages.
- Secure browsing with https.
Developer compensation!
- 2,000 Steem for finishing the first functional and community approved version of SteemJ.com paid by me from https://steemit.com/@jerrybanfield/transfers.
- 5% of total post rewards for every post created on SteemJ.com as long as the developer is actively maintaining and improving SteemJ.com. This will give authors 70%, upvoters 25%, and the SteemJ developer 5%.
- Most of my new posts will go through SteemJ.com once it is up and has the ability to schedule posts because I want to give the developer a consistent payout from the beginning.
- Posting weekly updates of SteemJ.com will earn an upvote from me at a minimum with the possibility to earn what some of the top app updates like ChainBB and eSteem get which is $500 to $1,000 per post.
- I expect SteemJ to provide a developer with at least part time income from the beginning with a full time equivalent income within a year of launch!
Roadmap of future features!
- Find help page for tracking freelancers most recently online and interested in working.
- Browse jobs page for showing most recent new jobs posted.
- Allow users to manually manage adding posts about steemgigs, jobs complete, and now hiring to their profile.
- Integrated private messaging without having to sign up for any third party service. This alone would make SteemJ worth using even without caring about the freelancing features.
- Track SteemJ earnings and spending from memos sent that include SteemJ.
- Enable each user to write a custom profile description different from what is on Steemit.
- Refer a friend bonus offering 2% of the author rewards from bringing any new friend in which would drop the developer fee to 3% on a referral sign up.
My marketing plans for SteemJ!
- Make videos on Facebook and YouTube showing SteemJ.
- Google responsive display ads to SteemJ.
- Steemit crowdfunding campaigns offering to spend all rewards on ads for SteemJ as seen already with Steemit at https://steemit.com/steemit/@jerrybanfield/steem-video-ad-1-on-facebook-and-youtube-featuring-10-reasons-for-usd10-steem-in-10-months.
- Emails explaining SteemJ to scholars enrolled at The University of Jerry Banfield.
Thank you to @sarasate for explaining to me the need to make a more concise post that is fast to read and @o5faruk for beginning work on a functional version of SteemJ as well as the @steemgigs team for working to actively collaborate with me!
