It would seem that very few get attention. I have put 2 hours into a post before and no one looks at it. Then I post a simple picture and I get 5 upvotes. I also don't understand why the posts are only monetized for 7 days. New followers will (hopefully) look at your previous work and upvote it. But it does not amount to anything. Very odd but I'm new here.
