Hello everyone!
Today I want to share some useful tips in order to help you gain some exposure on this overcrowded art site.
Keep in mind these are just small things you can do daily to be active on the community and get noticed, you won't become famous in 24 hours doing this! If you're pursuing fame, this journal is not for you.
So I joined DA. What do I do now?
You joined the biggest art community you can find on the internet. This means there are already millions of members and you have to work hard if you want to get some feedback and exposure.
Don't worry! It's not impossible. To be noticed here you just need to be active and engage on community activities. This means you can't submit art and run and expect favs and feedback to fall from the sky.
You can read this to get started:
Ok, but how do I become an active member?
Don't worry, it's just about growing a daily habit and interacting with the community. No Hocus Pocus here Let me give you some tips and tricks:
This way you'll show your appreciation for the art faved and you'll let the artist know you took time to look at their work. Maybe that grateful artist visits your page and browses your gallery, too!
But please, please, read forum rules before joining them!
Keep in mind that journals are for important updates, announcements or art features; for small, silly or funny things use status updates.
Tag properly your mature work and try to post it in the right category to make things easier for the community.
What if I am not receiving feedback?
Don't worry. It's a slow process since DeviantArt is a huge site and people have to find you to comment on your deviations.
However, you can speed it up by actively joining groups such as ProjectComment , GetWatchers or GetExposure , among many other active groups.
These groups focus on giving and receiving feedback and support. If you're looking for criticism, these groups can be your place!
I always say if you want to receive, you must give! It's all about reciprocity.
Give what you want to get and you'll get noticed soon!
Best of lucks! !

The key is positive interaction, as I always say.

I think I did it right but that two click llama thingy is not working on my tablet o_o. However I do all this. But I'm still so invisible, my faves are exploding >_< comments are alot I give (I always leave my opinion behind). I'm on the forum each day. Sadly so many dead groups that I lost count and it's confusing to see weither they are active or not 
I think it's that DA is slowly is dying

Weeird... 
Try contacting the creator of TCLB, maybe it's a bug.
Mmm... maybe your watchers have been dead a long time? Maybe your following is not active anymore. 11 e- years are like 100 years irl. 
It took me two years to be active, get comments on a daily basis and interact with people.
Sometimes I force interaction onto my watchers by reminding them to comment. I use this kind of stamps:
Or simply type (comment) before poll options.
It works.
I'd keep trying!

I cleaned my watchers list up not long ago. Only 20 were active from the 200 xD. Many were gone for over 5 years. I blocked them and they got removed from the list 
In that active widget I ask questions, trying to force people to answer. But nope no answers xD, even on the most random questions or funnies. I answer on random polls by others too , even tho some of my friends spam them...
Sorry I don’t know what TCLB is

I should clean my watchers, too.
That's odd.
TCLB: two click llama button.

Ooooh! The one click works like a charm on Chrome but my ipad doesn't seem to recognize the coding from the two click

Quiero compartir que a mi lo que me funcionó bastante fue lo dar muchas llamas como tu lo mencionas ^^ , es rápido pero tiene sus contras, cabe destacar que es lindo saber que hay personas que se toman la molestia de ver la galería, dar watch o ponerse en contacto contigo cuando le das una llama, algo que yo casi nunca hago :C , en fin, he llegado a tener muchas bonitas amistades y mis dibujos han cruzado muchas fronteras gracias a eso.
Es muy cierto lo de los grupos, en lo personal he tenido una gran experiencia en un grupo llamado ProjectComment, he brindado feedback que ha sido de ayuda y también he recibido feedback muy valioso que me ha ayudado a mejorar en mis dibujos y pues de eso también han nacido amistades.
Es un journal genial, gracias por compartir. ^^

Este es un resumen muy bueno de algo que me tomó bastante tiempo investigar y aprender jaja. Ojalá esto hubiese llegado antes, me habría ahorrado un par de minutos de mi vida. Sin embargo buscando por ahí aprendí más cosas y ningún conocimiento debe ser menospreciado! Lo que no sabía era lo de unirse a un grupo que sea exigente con el arte que se postea, es algo que también puede suponer un reto interesante...
Y... pues sí, sobre todas las cosas: dar para recibir! Gracias por compartir esto.
