Great post - I read it, and I only ever upvote posts I actually read.
You are doing some of the best posts on Steemit, but as you say - it's all about cultivating a band of followers who just blindly upvote everything.
Maybe if you had a big production team working on all your posts and included a few dozen bikini shots in each one you too could average $1000 per post
Edit your genuine comment, to remove the boob photo, and I promise I'll upvote it 100%
Hope you like kittens - after my most recent post featuring that boob image started WW3, I must admit I'm still getting LOL's out of boob reactions

Kittens are good. Boobs... I know why you do it. But to be honest, some of your comments are quite good and don't need boobs or kittens. :)
If boob photos help you get views on your blog, do it of course.
..but if you have a genuine comment to make on one of my blog posts, keep the kittens and boobs photo away and I'll still upvote you and like your opinion.
Thanks for changing the photo, and as promised, I upvoted you 100% on both.
Thanks - I have had this thing ever since I started out on Steemit over a year ago of including a picture on every comment - on some of my own posts I have added more than 50 images in the comments.
I don't usually post boob or kitten photos - I aim for something suitable for the subject - believe it or not on this one I was making a very vague reference to something you talked about in your post.
For the first time ever I didn't immediately know what image I wanted to add.
And then two seconds later I did!
I don't fault you for having your "thing" with photos.
I will tell you that you're a good writer. Usually your writing means more than the photo to me. Just write. You're good at it.
Photos are for those who can't express themselves. You can. You're smart and brilliant in your own way. You know it too. I can tell how smart you are. Smart in the way of thinking... not what you know.. but how you are.
The photo thing isn't really because I have trouble writing - It's because I just like seeing some pictures - I enjoy them and when other people post them I always notice.
Thanks for saying all that, coming from you I really appreciate it.
As soon as I get to the end of each comment, I actually see the image in my mind that I want to add to it.
