The problem is not in followers but in you, you can find me as clixmoney on steemit, I have more than 4000 followers, but I still receive less than $1 upvotes, but never 0, you know why ? because I am active in the community, I reply everyone, I comment a lot, I do contests and giveaways, I record video, I invite people to steemit, I came with ideas very useful to steemit, you just have to do the same and don't forget about other social media, when I write a post I always share it in facebook, twitter, and reddit and even likendin. So just be active, you can also join communities and we have a lot of them, for example I have also a big community and you can join it, we care about resteems and also give upvotes. So just keep steeming, never give up and everything will be ok. ☺
