You make excellent points in your post, here. You are right about your posts holding their appeal. I came to Steemit because of a link to a post I saw of yours in a google search.
Never worry about negative comments. Nine times out of 10, a negative post is a reflection of the poster, not the person to whom it is directed. Posters who take time out of their day to direct their own negativity at you are just jealous of your success. Their energy would be better spent in creating something worthwhile of their own.
Instant affirmation simply isn't realistic. This site is global. Some of your most loyal fans are probably asleep. It kind of makes a nonsense of the upvote rules with respect to the value of timing.
With so many users currently, it takes a while to separate the wheat from the chaff to uncover the nuggets of wisdom that we really want to read.
Cheers and happy Steeming

Katy thank you very much for demonstrating so clearly what I hoped to share here in the power of writing on Steemit to bring in readers, followers, comments, and earnings from Google search! What I love about every comment is that it helps the search engine ranking also!
Yes and what an honor to have the energy directed at helping me!
Thank you, Jerry, for replying to my comment on your post, and upvoting. I follow you because you make a lot of sense and your posts are really helpful in being clear and easy to understand, as well as really informative on the topics they address.

All of our work here is a long-term investment in gaining followers. As they trickle in, you can never be too sure where they came from.
Short-term thinking is usually a poor strategy.
