Take heart there's more to life than upvotes ;)

I'm certainly no literary genius but there are things you can do to get noticed... you just need to understand the system and enjoy the platform.
I've made very little by posting, 90% of what's in my wallet comes from trading.

But here are a few tips:

Firstly... don't complain about getting low or zero rewards, the only thing that will do is get you frustrated and make others feel you are only in it for the $$ (Which is fine... just don't let everyone else know)

Secondly... Longer posts (400-600 words) with a little comical twist perhaps, as humans we can lose interest quickly... catchy meme's can draw the attention towards what you're trying tell people.

seems silly but it's just how the mind works in most folks (know your audience)

Thirdly... don't ever stop, repetitiveness is key.

Also... Timing is everything (know your stats)
