I'm pretty sure we've all been there and felt desperated 'cause of not being noticed at Steemit and you're right @dumar022 when exposing about the reasons why one's posts aren't easily read or seen by someone else.
That's why it's so important (at least for me) being able to create good content, no matter word count but good themes and value to the community. And that's why I'm in @thealliance, because they saw some good skills in me and value good content (that doesn't mean I have a secured place in this ship).
And it's also important to be motivated when creating content, finding the right support and providing the best of you in each word.
Thank you!:)
