YCH's tend to do well, but you don't quite have a large enough watchers list, you might need to interact more.
It's because it's a mix of timing plus diverse interest in subjects of your audience, artists with 3000+ watchers are pretty much guaranteed to make like $125 each but the 100-2000 watchers range means some things can get overlooked & be lucky to get half that $.
Also people don't like it when artists do too many YCH's.
Basically you should experiment but not put too much hope in it, but try out ideas anyway.

Maybe you are right. First, I need more watchers xD It is a shame that I really sucks when comes to get new watchers.

I didn't mean you can't do any YCH's yet, since they can help bring in some more watchers too.
But I did mean don't put too much effort into them yet.
Testing things out means some might not get bought, so it's more to see which things you post get more attention.
Any unbought YCH's can just be converted to regular art later.

Also try to limit the price range when you start, say minimal $15 up to $60, letting the value go too low or too high can be upsetting.
Like it's not worth putting lots of effort for only $10, and expectations might get stressful if the price goes too high.

Getting more watchers can be done by somewhat regular art posting (even if just random undetailed ideas), some occasional lewd art helps too, but commenting on favorite things & watching people that like or draw things you like helps alot too.
And it builds somewhat exponentially, you're at the point where it wouldn't take too much effort to get 2000 more watchers.

That sounds very nice. I hope you are right because I feel that I´m very far of getting 1000 watchers or more.
I will try to post art more frecuently, lots of sketches and stuff like that.
Thank you, man!

Yeah, gaining recognition is not linear.
You're at about 200 watchers, which is oddly around 55% of the way to 2000, so you don't need to post 10x more stuff to get there XD
The pattern starts slow for a long while, then moderate, then alot, then it maxes out around 10,000..
Like for people posting maybe 4 major things a month & interactive with people, their watchers growth pattern is about;
 10, 100, 250, 1000, 2000, 4000 per 6 months.
Obviously posting less makes this slower, but that's about an average I've seen.
