Looks like you've at least made a few dollars on steemit. Now that this follow feed is working you should be trying to build a following like you might have on instagram.

It might not seem like you get much money now but, as people start getting more steem power they'll be able to give bigger rewards for their vote. I think when that starts happening, there will be many more posts receiving $10-100 for their posts. Right now it seems like either $0.12 or $300+. There is no in between yet. Only minnows who joined for free and whales who have invested.
