Thank you very much for this great comment! You shared some nice tips about content creation and engagement on HIVE!
Often one bad upvoted article means a good one is right around the corner.
I can recognize myself in that sentence... While I know that certain type of content is "more valued" by curators, that doesn't mean that it is more valuable to my readers... Most of my posts where I share photos and stories from my travels are well-upvoted, and on the other side, the posts where I share tips for growing on HIVE aren't upvoted well...
"Unfortunately", I like to share the second type of content that isn't appreciated by curators, but on the other side, I know that many do appreciate them which is fulfilling in a completely different way... Sometimes it's not all about the money... :)
Right on we should write for ourselves but also to our audience and it shouldn't be about chasing the money. For instance, I write about my son's acculades in basketball because I'm treating it as a journal, they don't usually do well but I'm still ok with it. Also I have done promise articles, they don't all do that well but I like to give/show them appreciation. I feel like that's an awesome welcomed gift.
