This is a very confused torrc. What are you trying to accomplish with it?

There's lines indicating you want to run a bridge
(ServerTransportPlugin, ExtORPort)

There's a line indicating you don't want your bridge to be one
distrubted via BridgeDB (PublishServerDescriptor 0), yet you wonder why
no one is using your bride/relay.

Please read

https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide

And don't set any options that it doesn't tell you to set. And don't set
options you don't understand. `man tor` can help you understand what
you're setting
