This is a post that I needed to read. I agree that it is really hard to get noticed on Steemit. I guess the one thing to take away is that if you love what you're writing about keep writing. Readers will know its worth and it will get the attention that it needs.

It's great that we have a platform that is able to reward its users, however with these kind of rewards brings about a responsibility not to abuse them.

Keep up the awesome work Hive account@beekerst.
