Hmm, I might drop some disagreement on this, but its not like right or wrong, but from some other point of view.
I have used multiple platform for blogging, based on the platform itself, yes it is bad. Honestly I prefer wordpress or Drupal, there were times I used those plaftorm a lot. However if you say bad in term of making money... this is not a simple topic and there are areas I think you should explore first.
In my simplified opinion, if people come to HIVE with the goal, the sole goal, and the ultimate goal is making money online or become rich, they won't survive long... Lets get back to the basic...
- Do you like writing / posting?.
- Do your posts have capacity to give some value for your reader? Will that pick or bring up any interest on them?
- Do you think people might be interested with your posts?
- Many more
You can not success by forcing people to acknowledge you, unless you are a whale size HP holder. Try to follow others, learn what they do, what the good on them and avoid to follow or do what bad things they have.
and becareful with what others say, as everyone has their own conditions... I have seen people who get 0 votes for some posts, and someone has $100+ vote on their post, and someone who get $20 everyweek, all cry for not getting support. in a glance those people are in deep need of support, but actually some don't.
anyway one suggestion from me, try to post with topic that the community like... not with what you like... that might be a good start for you from there
It's hard for beginners to succeed on this platform
