Hi there @terril, I'm glad you found some reassurance in what I wrote! I know how hard it is starting out, and to put not just effort but heart into your posts only to find they make little and get little notice. After a few of these it seems hardly worth the trouble. With the price of crypto the last couple months it's attracted so many people to Steemit, and a lot of them are purely here for personal gain, and not remotely interested in community. So unfortuately that makes it harder for the new bloggers like yourself who genuinely desire community and connecting with like-souls, and want to share things that you know are worthy of more than a few votes. If recipes are your main area of interest, I highly recommend joining in with food contests, such as @lenasveganliving 'Fruits & Veggies Monday' contest, @progressivechef 'Steemit Iron Chef'... as these are very popular contests at the moment and the best way to get your own recipes noticed. You will find stacks of lovely foodies to connect with and they'll give you such wonderful feedback you'll be glowing! I used to host the Steemit Culinary Challenge, and many of the newbies that joined in then are making consistently high-earning posts now, after only a few months. Also, you'll soon notice that the 'foodies' are some of the nicest people on Steemit... if you like their posts they will usually visit your blog. I just had a really quick nosey at your blog and it's fantastic. Vegan, healthy, quality ingredients, beautiful photography... exactly what is loved in this community! I guarantee if you stick with it and reach out to others, you and your food will be embraced right back. Look out for lovelies like @lenasveganliving, @amy-goodrich, @plantstoplanks, @babettxx, @kotturinn, @kiwideb... and all who join in the food contests! You will do very well here, I have no doubt!
