But you cannot really avoid supply and demand. We have to do the best we can with what we have in this world. The problems on Steemit are not new to this world. People are always judging books by covers. On Facebook, YouTube, & in real life, offline, at libraries, at stores, we skim read, we scan, we look at titles. But the upvotes will encourage people to read it all completely later. The money thing is what it is and people come here not to read but to make money.

But you can Google your articles and my articles are showing up on Google and all over the internet when you search for the keywords. People will find your content sometimes today or next year and that is when they really will read it. Be patient because people do come eventually and randomly too. Sorry that people did not read what you wrote.

Steemit is better than Facebook in so many ways because people are generally reading a bit more often at deeper levels here on Steemit than they do on Facebook it seems.
