Hey Rhys,
I'm in kind of the same boat here. I'm learning it's more about post frequency than anything honestly. So what if the post for the day isn't that exciting. If you are posting often, and 1 out 10 of those post do well, then it's worth it IMO.
Just keep at it, make it a routine and you should gain some followers. I'm taking my own advice and will make time to post once per day regardless of how exciting the post is.
