Ah - it is because they have delegated their HP to people who are not interested in this stuff.
Not just that. The market became saturated. There was and still is far more of that stuff being created than there are consumers interested in it. Combine that with how that market and those creating that stuff would be far more likely to convert their stake into something that turns a profit (like delegating) if the option is available, rather than using it to support content. So the crypto/investing/finance content is a market that eats itself to death, in a sense.
Actifit posts are notorious for going without consumption. Again that's because it's the same style being delivered in bulk. I know some folks try to mix it up and keep things fresh, but the headline is often enough to be a deterrent. If you put those photos into a post destined for a photo community, you'd almost immediately find a market of consumers and gather support.
Still, like you pointed out, you feel rewarded in other ways. Nothing wrong with that at all. Able to find the silver lining.
I too have plenty of former flops that went up in value. It's all about planting the seeds and allowing them to grow. Far too many show up and start eating those seeds immediately. Then have nothing to show for it while still being incredibly hungry.
Thanks for the reply and he vote.
Have tried in recent weeks to change the Actifit posts - change the headlines and also post directly some of the images o photo communities. Next step - my headlines only and some different tagging
It all feels like Twitter - but I do get something back each time - will keep tweaking
