Becoming a popular blog among thousands of readers have never been my goal but a comment or two would be nice and there hasn’t been any lately which is a shame.

It’s the first time I’m visiting your blog, and I love the one liners…

Some people just read and move to the next blog. But I liked that you expressed your concern. I really like that. Btw… Enjoyed reading Catherine’s comment. Great share. 🙂

I thought your few words were very interesting. I think the mor.e popular blogs actually ARE the ones that don’t have thousands upon thousands upon thousands of readers/followers/friends . I started blogging two years ago. From nothing. And in that short time, my “community” ( I despise the word “followers”–it’s so impersonal) has grown strictly from word of mouth. I don’t do ads. I’m a reject for “Like to know it”. The subscribers to the blog I write has grown to almost 2,000. I”m not what you would call a popular blogger, but I’m happy with the number of those who enjoy reading the blog.
Over time, I’ve stopped reading blogs that have turned into one big ad. I want a story. I don’t care if that story is one sentence or an hour’s read. I want a story. And that’s what is daunting as a blogger. In order to amass a gazillion numbers, you have to have less content and more ads.
But, it’s also engaging. I’ve also stopped following blogs where I’ve commented, and commented quite a lot, to no reply back. That the way to really lose someone.
Anyway, you had a short little story and this comment is way too long!!!

I like what you said! It has to be a story not just a big ad.
Thanks
