I think how much a post earns depends on the following:
- How many followers you have
- Your Steem Power
- Your follower's Steem Power
- The interestingness of your post
- The quality of your post
I believe the means to achieve these are the following:
- Post great content
- Engage in discussions (maybe 10 every day)
- Accumulate Steem Power
It all looks good on paper and then there is the real life application. Thanks for sharing your tips for success. I will try and apply them in the near future. The 10 engagements per day is a good goal for sure.
