I love long posts! Thanks for updating me, that's interesting about the comment value. I think that the ability to downvote/flag/etc is hard on some people, but it is a great way to give the community ways to fix it self like you said.
I just checked out your website (and followed you!) and I applaud you for bringing your business to steemit. Hopefully being here will be a long-term investment for you and will pay off once the platform becomes more mainstream. A lot of people are talking about marketing and growth of steem (steemit-growth tag) and part of that topic is spreading Steemit to other social media sites and getting the word out. I think, in many ways, that would end up helping your business (which is totally awesome by the way! Lots of people out there need a personal, holistic service like that). I really hope it all pays off, I don't really have any long-term goals for myself on here, but I'll definitely enjoy helping you reach yours :).
