Honestly, I think just putting good content out there and making good connections with other users. Good content speaks for itself. The connections part of the equation, is a little more nuanced, however.

The more you can personalize your interactions with people here, the larger the base of active followers you'll acquire. And that traffic to your post attracts more traffic as it's the Hot & Trending posts that gobble up all of the attention within the communities.

So, when you put consistently good content out there, you attract attention. And that will likely catch the notice of the larger curators. Everybody wants to be part of something good, you know?

Keep doing what you're doing!
