Congratulations on the 500 followers that are real and actually responsive, I guess that's the difference when the growth is organic. I have close to 400 followers in less than a month but hardly any more that 10 pairs of eyes on my posts, even lesser in actual upvotes, never really more than a few bucks' worth on each post. Profit of 5000 SP in 6 months is even more creditable, especially without any financial investment on your part. You are inspiring and I know I probably started on the wrong foot but I'm not giving up any time soon and constantly changing and evolving, hopefully I can be an inspiration to someone some time down the road :)
