Hey @simplifylife!
Welcome to Steemit!
When you say that your intro didn't get much response, what did you exactly expect?
To be honest, for my very first post on steemit I didn't receive much more attention than you got for yours :-)
This is a long term project.
Plus: there are MANY new users joining the platform every single day, so thousands of people want to get a piece from the cake.
If I were you I'd definitely change one Thing: When I had a look at your blog I asked myself "So what is this blog actually about?".
You headlined your introduction with being a med student, that's whay I thought I would find a blog about medicine and related topics. But then you right about everything else but medicine: Football, memes, food, news, movies,... It couldn't be more diverse (and confusing :-)).
So here is my no. 1 advice: be more precise! Choose 1-2 fields / topics you're good at and then become a professional at them. You can't be a sports expert, food blogger and med student at the same time. I mean in real life you may be, but a blog is like a magazine: you need a FOCUS.
Medical student. Interested in and learning about Cryptocurrency. Love to cook and try out good food. Small scale photography once in a while. Sports.
This is definitely too much.
Also: don't tag your articles with #cryptocurrency if you're a beginner in that field. This is a highly competitive area here on steemit, and we've got some really professional crypto enthusiasts on the platform. So I'd rather suggest you to blog about something you're already good at. Don't get me wrong: it's awesome to learn and people will appreciate your interest in crypto. However, don't try to make it your "store sign" :)
Last but not least: be Patient! You're not even one month on this platform.
I hope you considered these ideas helpful.
Best of luck!
