Some blogs I visit have 30-40 followers, some have 100, or 400, or 1,000 and counting. I currently have eleven. Some come , some go, the ones that stay do stop by and comment. When I visit the other blogs, a handful of people stop by, the same it seems, to make their comments and move on. Some of the blog writers have sexy subjects or are sexy themselves. Most are very good writers. Each has a nice style, easy to read.What draws people to you? It is one friend tells a friend and so on, and so on, and so on. With a blog roll. When you are bored, let's see what else is going on.
And then there is me. One blog I have has a decent visitor count, but what is gratifying is if and when someone stops by, they stay for awhile, reading on average 3 or 4 posts. One blog I have, poetry, makes the sounds of crickets in the night. But the poetry I write is to share my thoughts and feelings on a particular matter and is quite a mental release for me and that alone makes me feel good. A third blog I have is a blog commentary on some golf courses that I get to play on and my thoughts on the course from the eyes of a very average golfer.
To be honest, not having a lot of followers used to bother me, however, no longer do I have blogger follower envy.
I have put out over 400 posts, a mix of music, commentary, funny stuff, poetry and whatever comes to mind.
I hope to do this for a long time. I hope you enjoy your stay. Comments are always welcome, but most of all come on back,
followers optional!
