The real trick is that you don't want to be seen going to a showdown with bad cards very often, so you want to try to take down pots when you have nothing by them folding, and get them to a showdown when you have a monster by making good bets against those who will see you to the river, that way the rest of the table thinks that you are tight.

Does the rest of the table really believe you're tight if you're winning 1/3 of the total pots played? You must be in 1/2+ the total pots played. Honestly, I'm mystified, do people really not catch on as long as you showdown an occasional hand/monster?
