Great post. I used to have lots of issues getting upvotes on my posts. I found once I started to focus more on the quality and started to be more actively engaged with other users I did start getting better payouts. It's all a give and take with this. You have to give your time even if your not posting, just engaging with other people will benefit you in the long term. Thats how you develop a fan base and discover other posters who may have content that you really enjoy. I have found great people to follow on here.
