I am grateful if it's helpful for you. That's a great question. I will try to talk about what made me hanging on here. Here I will try to shortly review it and maybe I will post about it. Thanks for the idea.

When I started out, I was just amazed how the platform was working. I saw those successful people and tried to understand what was the secret of their success. I tried many different things and posted sometimes on photography, motivation, story, challenges, travel, vlog, contests, musical covers and even poetry. I was interested how they would work. They all worked a little bit. Well, the most successful post from them was about travel. I had pictures with story there. It was very encouraging. From this experience, I realised that doesn't matter what you post about. The main thing is to be real, make real experiences and capture them. People want to see who you are. It is the journey, you may not get the answer instantly. It needs time and little bit effort but you will see it.

I tried many different things but I know my niche. I am a phd in Paleoanthropology and that's what I want mainly to post. Because if you do what you like, there is no time and energy you spend. You will like what you do and there will be no barriers. Also, think about others, they have to upvote your post. What would they like to hear from you?

In conclusion, just find your niche but before it's fine to experiment on. Good luck :)
