This is the main flaw that I see in steemit. The people that joined the community early on have so many followers that regardless of what they post they will make money, whereas the newcomers, even if they post great stuff, will only get a small reward.
RE: Statistics show that only 10 Steemians will click on this post so I'm counting on 10 comments which will hopefully unravel the mystery of getting a decent amount of views!
