You will not make anyone rich from upvoting comments. They are more likely to value you for attracting them to Steem, if your blog could actually reach people outside of Steem.

I have serious reservations about both the product and marketing of Steem. But for the moment, it is probably the best we have available for blockchain onboarding and blogging.
