I browsed your articles and I don't know why you feel they are not rewarded enough, what would be a good reward to you? you earn between 2$ and 50$ for some articles, I'd say this is far from being a bad start! I do not really like to be asked to upvote. I do it on my own. And when I do, I do not do it to get 50% back. Keep on writing I am sure you'll find success.
