On blurt, users decide who earns and who doesn't. If you create cool content and reach people who like you with it, you earn... but the second issue is that looking at your posts, only the last one didn't get anything. The problem may be that when you published it, no one came across it when it appeared at the top and then was buried by other posts.

I also recommend using several tags from the popular tag list on the left. For example, the r2cornell tag is the r2cornell curator's tag, also use a popular tag for your language community, I don't know where you are from, but look for it in the tag list.

Generally, many users still browse blurt by tags because communities were introduced recently.

you can also try publishing in other communities or on a blog. The fact that you are contributing to the curatorial community makes you dependent on the curators, but the point is to build a list of followers for your blog because the most frequently viewed feed by users is their own feed ;)
