You need an original idea. Not just "Ye, Im making pictures and posting and blogging my everyday life". That's not going to work for most people. What you need is a unique & amazing idea everyone would love to read. I've had an idea in my head for multiple months, but never I knew where to post it. Then I heard about steemit and whoops, got $18 from 1 post. If you're interested, this is the post: https://steemit.com/food/@pizzachain/do-whales-like-pizza
After that I've never even come close to that, but that's because I haven't had any other unique and amazing ideas. I'm currently doing a daily Intelligent Contest series, but that's not really succesful either :/
I'm working on my future posts of "The universe is a pizza" and some other ideas I obtained through my time on steemit. I really think it's not that you're just unlucky. You need a bit of luck, but mainly original & amazing posts to break through on steemit.
that is why we need friends ... sharing your experience or thought sometimes creates new idea
good luck on your pizza :)
