Its all about give and take...the more you give the more you gain.....you got follower and rewards as well. Till now after 7 month stay on steemit i feel, its very hard to get noticed. ...curation is about helping minnows...i.e user which do not have much sp...helping them you will good follower but rewards can only be possible when you get noticed by any whale....and they too want to be voted on their post 100 %power and its difficult to maintain the sp to keep both of them happy
