Greetings friends!

I tried to make my post profitable since I joined steem (which hardfork into Hive and steem now) in 2018. Some of my posts become profitable. I am not saying my posts become as profitable as the posts of the top creator but it's payout become more than equal to one token. I have discovered some shortcomings which are making my post not as popular as they should have been.

1. I am not interacting with people as I should have been. I am not in a state to do so because of paucity of time.

2. I am not making alliance with people which can make my post profitable.

3. I am writing on complex matters which people can't understand.

4. People are here for making profit. They don't read posts which are lengthy.

5. Perhaps people don't like the subjects which I choose for my posts.

However, I think that engaging with people is the crucial thing which I am missing. This is the critical thing on which I should work.

What do you think?
