Most people only check their submissions of already watched artists and briefly browse either 1 page or a handful of keywords of something specific they're interested in.
Looks like you already make good use of keywords though \o/
on top of that it'll prob help to upload your stuff the closest you can to just before noon server time and just after (between 11 and 1). That's when more people tend to be on and can take notice of fresh uploads.
The progress will be at its slowest at the start, so dont get discouraged by the little numbers. Once you build up a common knowledge of who you and what you draw/style etc. are things will get better. Though its something you will always have to help along. That means consistent new art postings and possibly even journals to interact with folks
Last but not least its definitely possible to build your watchers going completely SFW, but its hard to ignore the.. efficiency of certain NSFW topics xD, even just plain tasteful nudity is enough to get people to at least glance at your front page and leave a watch or a few favs.
Hope this helps some, happy arting! <3
And ah I feel the effects of being a sfw artist on fA. I might try branching out some time then! this is all so useful tysmm
I'll help spread the word of your being here, may be able to even get a few commissioners your way ^^
