For one, you don't post things just to get comments, faves, and so on.
You do it, because it's your work, and you want to put it out there.
If you join the right groups, people will read your stuff.
You have to join groups, and don't just post your pictures/text there. But really get into!
Join a role playing group, with text entries, and so on!
I'd being friends with the right people could also help with comments, and favorites, and watches.
This group would help though! Right now, there's just posting, and you have to hop epeople will read your stuff! (I certainty do! And I comment!)
We also have contests, and if you win you get a shout out type thing.
Where popular (or popular-ish) deviants with feature you in a journal!
That would defiantly help!
Many groups of features for contest wins. Try and start there!
Hope this helped!! ^^
