My 100 art to 6 followers ratio is kind of frightening.
I would've at least expected 10 followers.

Just see your favorite artwork, and most of them are very good.
You should do that as your favorite artwork, People will follow because sense of your art.
I ever draw bad before, I can say that.
random people with random opinions.
they are not interested to see your art, they just come to see it and gone.
The thing with Newgrounds is that the site mainly prefers Quality over Quantity. People would rather see a few art pieces that are pretty good than see a lot that are not so great.
And yeah I get the feeling it does suck so that’s why I’ve been taking down my own pieces that I feel are not that great in favor of putting an spotlight on some of my best work.
Plus it also kinda depends if you’re scouted or not. I find that being an scouted artists will help you get more eyes than being an unscouted one, but hey that’s my own experience with it at least so I could be wrong on that.
Now if you want more eyes on your work I’m gonna say what I always say. Make an art thread show casing your wips, sketches, basically anything to do with your art. Joining collabs will definitely make people notice you. Lastly be active in the community. Now I’ve seen you start doing this in some of the forums, and even making an lil thread in art forums for unscouted artists which is good!!
Keep up the art, study some of the fundamentals a bit and most importantly be active and patient. Being patient is key to this because getting more recognition can take time. Hopefully this helps you out a bit
That's nothing compared by my @sketczybook (mostly soft nsfw) art stash alt . 47 followers, join date 2020.... and nearly 400 pieces. My advice is to care less about that ratio and keep on drawing. Try to put 100% effort as often as you can. That way you'll see slow but consistent improvement.

To receive likes and followers first you need to give other shares and likes
Sheer quantity is not going to get you anywhere.
You got a long way to go, would recommend learning from art videos on YouTube (be sure to practice what you watch too, just watching is not enough). I also heard DrawABox is good but I haven't tried that myself.
You'll start to see more followers through improving your art rather than making as much volume as you possibly can.

Well no offense dude it kinda looks like the art you make you don’t even try in other words it looks…plain like I know I’m not some grand artist and what not and that’s cause the art I make isn’t the best I can make cause I’m still learning being an artists isn’t just if I make art I get followers being an artist is about having fun and pride of what I make while always trying to improve like right now I’m trying to get better at backgrounds but I’m bad at em but anyways what I’m trying to say is the amount of notoriety you get won’t happen if the art you make isnt noticeable as in it looks different and better with each drawing and what not but yeah all I can really suggest for u if u want more followers is to get better at art cause the art you make is frankly ok but it dose have great potential if you can hone it ya know so just keep trying to get better and better with every drawing and you should get a following no problem

But there isn't really any point putting something out for people to see if virtually nobody is there to see it.
I literally had to spend weeks praying that the work I had put into my art for years didn't go to waste.

what? how?
Try engaging with more people, say 5 a day on site. Review their pieces with meaningful content. Make some friends -- and not just artists. People will engage with your work if you offer something of value.
Another thing, do improve on your craft. Don't focus solely on output. You can also record your process and use music from artists you like on NG -- great to make a playlist for this while you paint and stream, or do a speed paint featuring someone's work.
The more interactive, the better. And you don't have to constantly put out either. Once every 2 weeks is good.
Also, cross platform social media sharing and interacting helps as well. Take your sweet time and don't worry too much about engagement. If you follow these steps, it will come!

This mindset is guaranteed to kill your development as an artist.
It takes years of learning, doing studies, trying and failing, building fundamentals, and just generally drawing a lot. These studies you’ll have to do are not the type of work that any sizable audience would be interested in looking at; but they have to be done in order to get your art to a place where a sizable audience will want to look at it.
I said this in your last thread like this one: posting Art here, or anywhere is not instant gratification guaranteed. You’ve been on the site for like two weeks. Give it time, and put the work in, whether you get there or not is dependent on those two things.
