idk anything about producing music or much about dubstep but
that techno thing was going on the entire song non-stop basically. dubstep sounds alot better when your "bass thing" is kind of short and you leave a bit of space in. from what i could hear you were only using an unchanged kick + snare sample, not much variety. if you play around with them you can make them alot better, because w/e you were using was very weak.
just listen to what others do and you will get better, develop your own style because nobody wants to listen to what they have already heard before (cue 1000000000000 skrillex rip-offs) . listen to other genres that are related to dubstep like dnb, garage, grime, etc, and even genres that are completely unrelated and you may find sounds you'd like to include in your own work, you may even finding yourself preferring to produce another genre of music. i think you're focusing way too much on promoting yourself, if you just make better and better music you'll enjoy it and w/e else will occur along the way.
