Your comment just put a smile ...Aww, thanks Annika! Your comment just put a smile on my face!:D<br />I still don't have a ton of followers, but the ones I do have, I consider them more as friend to be frank;) And I think that's a hundred time better than a bazillion followers that I don't have the opportunity to get to know that well. (although I have nothing against people who DO have lot of follower! Great for them:D)<br /> Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887717583461210798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481923570897372978.post-54450206053339059902016-03-14T09:42:26.862-07:002016-03-14T09:42:26.862-07:00That's why I wrote this post, to clarify any m...That's why I wrote this post, to clarify any misunderstanding that might exists regarding people who don't care about stats (aka me!) I'm sure some people don't really care about their followers either, and if that works for them, who am I to tell them it's wrong? <br />I do care about my followers, simply not the numbers. The relationship I have with my followers, who I consider more as friends to be frank, define me more as a blogger than a graphic telling me my stats are the same as last week.<br />Thank you for your lovely comment! I always love hearing your thoughts on what I have to say!:) And ramble all you want, I love it!Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887717583461210798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481923570897372978.post-67155595154300144132016-03-14T09:27:09.760-07:002016-03-14T09:27:09.760-07:00That's the spirit!
Though sometimes it can be ...That's the spirit!<br />Though sometimes it can be hard remembering why you started in the first place, stats are just numbers and people, while there might only be three at the beginning, are worth SO MUCH MORE!<br />And you know, you'll always have at least one follower *raises hand<br />;)XXXSophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887717583461210798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481923570897372978.post-70310854751614654512016-03-10T05:16:53.223-08:002016-03-10T05:16:53.223-08:00I agree with you on this so much!

I also feel that the number of followers isn't as important as, say having even a small number of people who keep checking in and genuinely want to discuss books and make friends with you.<br />Awesome post <3Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12088707452804693450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481923570897372978.post-25480529200373566152016-03-10T03:48:44.588-08:002016-03-10T03:48:44.588-08:00OOOOOH this is such a great way to put it. I do se...OOOOOH this is such a great way to put it. I do see a lot of people say "I don't care about stats, I blog for myself" but this is another thought that now that I consider it, applies to me too. (I do care about stats ... like way too much ... but my blog readers are more important than the stats, even though the stats say something about my readers. Anyhow, I am beginning to ramble now, but just YES to how you present caring about your audience doesn't necessarily mean caring about stats!Alyssa Carlierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995554896786109238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8481923570897372978.post-3937953514219512642016-03-09T20:17:49.135-08:002016-03-09T20:17:49.135-08:00I totally agree! I started my blog about 3 months ...I totally agree! I started my blog about 3 months ago, and my total amount of page views is smaller than what other bloggers get per month... But that by any means is not gonna stop me from blogging! I stared blogging because I wanted to be able to scream at the Internet how much I love books, and I'm gonna keep doing that, even if only a very small portion of people get to enjoy my blog with me xD Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13849442948848462913noreply@blogger.com
