It takes quite a while until your node becomes more heavily used. Tor
clients take your node's uptime into account when considering whether or
not to route through it. Higher uptime indicates a more stable node,
which will get more traffic.

In other words, everything's fine, just sit tight for a day or two :).
Thanks for helping the Tor network!
