Hi @contenking, This is one of the best written posts on this topic. Thank You. But at the same time, it's a pity that such a good post made just $1.31. In my humble opinion, you this post deserves more. So, give it a Shout Out.
I'm not the right person to answer your questions. YouTube is the place, I guess.
Keep writing man. You got a loyal fan.
Steem On!
Thanks for your kind comment. I put a lot of work into my posts, and many of them don't make more than a couple of bucks.
When I first started last October, it was much easier. However, in the past few months it seems tough to get noticed.
Sometimes I do get discouraged when I see posts that are nothing more than an image or a few sentences make lots of money, but that's life I guess.
At any rate, I do it for fun mostly, so it's not that big of a deal. Right now my next task is trying to get my reputation up to 60. Seems like I've been stuck at 59 forever!
Best of luck to you. I'll check out your blog and follow you, too.
