I started a month ago, and was very excited about my progress in this community.
But since the fork thing, I hardly get any attention from the users I used to, and it's somehow harder to keep an article visible as after few hours of posting the post is relegated to the end of the feeds - so it's like a post is not actually valid for 7 days, since soo becomes invisible to the community....
Please help me understand what I'm doing wrong!? 🤔😢

¿Qué pasa con Steemit? Cuando empecé hace un mes, estaba súper emocionada y motivada con esta comunidad. Enseguida empecé a relacionarme con algunos usuarios, y a recibir y dar votos y comentarios.
Pero desde que hicieron esa release del fork, no sé qué ha cambiado. Parece que mis posts no tienen ninguna atención, y pasan desapercibidos. Además observo que aunque el post tenga una validez de 7 días, a no ser que obtengas la visibilidad en las primeras horas, el post ya queda relegado al final de la página del home feed, con lo que las posibilidades de que te lean aún se hacen menores...
Alguien me puede echar un cable entendiendo que hago mal? 😢🤔

Build your followers. Concentrate on that. The more followers you have, the more money you're likely to make on each post. You show up in the news feeds of your followers, and they're more likely to upvote you.
Also, consider promoting your posts in other places, like Steemit Chat and Discord. I always make Steemit Chat a part of my post promotion routine, and just discovered Discord.
Comment on some of the trending posts, too. It may get your own profile and posts some attention, as new people discover you.
Here's a follow from me to help, and also an upvote.

Thanks @stephmckenzie!! That's what I'm trying to do. Steem.chat, I may need to give it a second try. The few times I visited there were only people copying and pasting the links to their articles. It seemed to me worthless and spamming.
I tried to get into discord too, but could not figure it out how it works yet! Do you by chance know where to find some instructions?
Thanks a lot for your comment and support! upvoted and followed back too!

I've only been on Discord once, and am still trying to figure it out myself. I do know you need an invitation to get into certain chat rooms on Discord, so the best thing to do is go into the main chat room and ask someone there which rooms you should be spending time in and if they could send you an invitation. That's how I got into some other, useful rooms. The chat moves much more swiftly there than in Steemit Chat, thought, so be prepared to keep up if you're going to be spending any time there. From what I've been told, it's worth it.

Good luck with it. Steemit Chat used to be the big key to getting your posts noticed here, but from what I've heard, it's now Discord. Both places are good, but everyone who is enjoying insane success here right now seems to be involved in Discord.

Estoy pasando por lo mismo amigo, es difícil debido al crecimiento de la red (más que todo), el HF19 también ha jugado su papel, tengo un artículo al respecto que pronto subiré. Solo debemos tener paciencia y seguir publicando, seguir apostando por contenidos de calidad. Saludos.

Tienes razón, yo no sé qué es eso del fork, pero en mi corta experiencia aquí, sí que he visto que o tu post triunfa en los primero minutos o se pierde entre la nada. Influye demasiado la hora de publicación, pero ¿hay algo que nosotros podamos hacer para cambiar esto?
Podríamos hacer una especia de comunidad de apoyo o algo así. Un grupo de gente que nos sigamos mutuamente, siempre que estemos interesados en el contenido de los otros, claro, y hacer una especia de compromiso para votar y comentar los post de los miembros.

Hola @omwith ! Don't worry, it's not for the hardfork, but it's just because in the last month the users are mre and more than before and so it's really hard to stay visible in the community. You can do just few things: write nice comments on the posts that you like, write good contents using nice images, join contests, have patience (this is the most important part ^^), enjoy and steem on! ^^
PS: Do you live in Barcelona? I love Barcelona!!!

Hi Silvia! Thanks for your comment! I love what you and Paolo are doing! :)
Yes, that's what I'm trying, but as you say, there are more and more users on board everyday, all of us writing more and more posts, and also less votes available to give everyday. I'm concerned that this is just going to be more and more difficult...
anyway, I still believe this is a great thing what we are building, it's just that everyday requires more time to manage it I guess.
Thanks again for stoping by! And yes, I'm from and live in Barcelona! Should you come to the city let me know! ;)
