Time -- give yourself 3 months -- and consistency in posting and engaging. Your quality is good enough for me to pick you up for my Friday digest -- that part you have down. But, for every post, do 4-5 comments on your fellow photographers' work. Get to know and admire your fellow Hivers so they know you are here, and most will reciprocate. Do this over and over again. Posting, engaging, consistency, and time -- that is what will get you where you want to go on Hive.
