How to get my photography noticed?

Getting your photos noticed is a different skill from making them good. To get them noticed, follow many people, comment on their photos, and generally get involved in what we call "networking".

To make your pictures better, study and shoot. From the links you provided, your pictures are divided into snapshots (where you haven't really considered the overall picture before shooting it) and better shots where it looks like you've put some thought into the picture.

Nice light, but no sense of composition. It's not at all clear what we're meant to be looking at.

An interesting idea and one of those times where you can put the subject in the middle. I'm not sure about the spoon: it leads the eye out of the frame, which isn't what you want.

Reflections are always interesting, but this one's skewed - it's not straight. And it's rather low quality: iPhone, perhaps? With better technique this could be an interesting shot.

This is the kind of thing you should leave out. Blurred, boring. This takes away from the better shots.

This one's better in a sense: you seem to have put some thought into it. Again, the quality is horrible - you should not use a phone for photography unless it's the only thing available. But the composition of this shot shows some promise, and the light hitting the customer's face is nice. It might work even better in black and white.

Not good. Flag is almost bang in the middle of the frame, the horizon is tilted.

Nice idea! Again, the quality is poor, but it's a nice idea.

So as you can see, you have some nice ideas but at the moment you're limited by a) technique and b) consistency. The technique you can work on (get a real camera, not a phone) and consistency comes from being tough on yourself and only keeping and showing your best stuff.

Keep going and enjoy what you do: this is also important.
