I would focus on making good content. You are way ahead of me on this and I've been doing it for about a week and a half. If you have good content the number of follwers will increase over time.
I've seen some folks get $200-300 on an intro blog post but then their following posts have been in the 1 cent, 10 cent range. So, it really comes down to content I think. If you are doing it just for the money I have a feeling it will be like watching water come to a boil. I'm taking the long run approach to this and looking at the community building process.
Thank you for the post!! I've gone thru the same thing where I thought a decent post got nothing. But it's on there for future readers that potentially become new followers. Keep it up! I've liked the posts I've seen so far.
Thanks for the response. I've had more free time than usual so I've really put an effort into figuring things out and spending quality time on my posts.
I agree with the analogy of water coming to a boil. I'm really enjoying meeting people and I really believe this is a platform that will grow. I remember when I was one of the first people using Twitter and Instagram and people thought those platforms were stupid in two years time, they were all using them.
That's wild, $200-300 on an intro post!? Hey content is king, can't argue with that. It's all about the value.
