Unfortunately, and I do not mean to discourage you, welcome to the world. Your first social media post won't get any likes. Your first DEV post won't get a lot of views. Your first published app will get two total downloads, and one of them will be your mom. "Build it and they will come" has always been a lie.
If you want to suffer from popularity you've got two choices: write lowest-common-denominator engagement-bait, or write high quality, unique content and wait a long time. I've done my fair share of both.
The first kind of content is easy to write, gets a few thousand views the week it comes out, and then it's over. The second kind is much harder to write and starts out slow, but over the course of several months rises in Google results and backlink references until it reliably provides a few hundred hits a month.
What are these hits good for? I don't know. Feels good to be seen, I guess.
