Day 11
Respond!
One of my biggest niggles, when a blogger whose post I have commented on doesn’t respond – AT ALL!
Going back to my last couple of tips, quality interaction is so important, when building up a solid reader base, and if you don’t bother answering or at least acknowledging the comments left on your post, it’s highly unlikely you will be attracting many followers.
The conversations I have had via my comments, or on other blogs, have strengthened my blog relationships with my followers, allowing me to get to know them as well as them to know me too.
That human touch makes all the difference.
An appreciation to those leaving thoughts on your words.
I read, and write A LOT.
If you are following me, you know that.
My saviour is my WP app on my phone.
When I have a moment, I log in, and browse my reader and all my notifications, attempting to answer them all as the day unfolds.
If I know I can’t give all my attention to the comments then, I wait until the end of the day, and spend time responding, genuinely, to all who bless me with a visit to my blog, and leave comments.
Some schedule their time to respond weekly.
It’s up to you, but make sure you do!
But I Smile Anyway...
