For me, readers are more than just random people who read my blog, but they are the community who share the similar interest. I am not a celebrity, nor the famous human on earth, but I do admire my community which has motivated me, as well as, adhered with The Equinox Fashion up until now. I have received a lot of questions from other bloggers in terms of how to engage the readers, and my answer is always being "I stay connected with them in almost every way" Blog wouldn't be a blog without readers, and success wouldn't become the success without people who support us.
AGREE & DISAGREE COMMENTS
Of course, there always be readers who agree and disagree with what we have written, however, it shows that they actually read our blogs. Remember that there's nothing personal about the comments, and we shouldn't judge others from those disagreement opinions. As some of us notice that I love writing about life, also how I see the fashion industry and social media, so obviously there's gotta be people who like and dislike my words. Some feel angry when people make a bad comments on their posts, or some can't seem to find a peaceful mind when they read what they do not want to hear. However, 'I LOVE IT'
It proves that my the readers are showing their real opinions, and this is literally how I engage with my readers! I love producing the posts that ask the audiences what and how they think. I don't really mind reading -/+ comments since it makes me feel good at interacting with others.

CONSTANTLY ENGAGEMENT
I have never stopped commenting on my fellow readers. I read every week in order to update what's going on with their lives, etc. In other words, it shows our supports to one another too! Only 5% that I may have missed some of the posts, but I constantly visit their websites. I have never commented once, and disappeared since it is not what I want. I would feel sad if someone just comes and go because this is the community we all in, and I want to continue building our online platform where all of us can talk and discover the new people, and new things.
DON'T ACT LIKE A SPAM
Comment with genuine feelings, and opinions, not just write for f***traffic sake. Some people only write the same comments over and over again, with the hope of 'notice me!' No, don't do that! It discourages the writers somehow. Sometimes, when I read those comments, I always wonder if the contents I have developed are not interesting or something. I think we all put so much effort in this blogosphere, so it would be better if we can encourage each other. I know there's always be a situation when we don't know how to comment when the contents are wrote in a different language, at least think of something.
Great outfit! ;)
ReplyDeleteI agree you have to connect with your bloggers and as per comments like you said some come for traffic and repeat one word comment. Great outfit.
ReplyDeleteNeeded this post as so discouraged and thinking my readers are disinterested because my comments are seing nothing but tumbleweed these days so this helps a lot! Thanks xx
ReplyDeleteLoving this post as I think it's important to engage with your readers to and I've met a lot of real friends through blogging, also I am loving your outfit so hard xoxo
ReplyDeleteI love the studs on your jacket! :)
ReplyDeleteI think your last point about the copy paste comments where people leave the same thing over and over is so true too - I see so many of those comments on my blog, I send most of them to spam.
Away From The Blue Blog
i have seen those comments and they kinda annoy me,i just delete them
ReplyDeleteYou look really great and i love your jacket,the studs are so beautiful
Beautiful girl! Very modern and fabulous! Lisa @ Myfancybathroom
ReplyDeleteAwesome tips. I so love this community and happy to be a part of it. I love reading others' blogs and learning more about them. I do get the spam comments and I think it is the most ridiculous thing as I see the exact same words from the exact same gal over and over. Ridic to say the least. Looking great Gail.

Yet again, you give great advice Gail. Your such a great person with great style and personality. I love that you keep engaged with your readers it's such a great thing to do and also to hear that you like that people give their honest opinions whether they're positive or negative ones. This shows your not a fake person like some bloggers who follow the crowd. You stand out so much! Keep at it girl!

Yap, I love reading comments too & they bring a smile to my face! I've enjoyed reading your posts too & found them very engaging, Gail! Have a wonderful week, dear! xoxo
ReplyDeleteYet another great look on you! I agree engaging with readers and socialising in general within the 'blogging world' is both enjoyable and a big part of growing a blog! I love how you share your honest opinions on your blog Gail, you always address really interesting topics :)

I know what you mean.. I have the same thing going on sometimes. I often get excited when I get a comment but then read it, it turned out something so general and nothing about the written post, so disappointing. Sometimes I also feel restricted in sharing my honest opinions for negative comments, but you're right. Thanks for your post :) x J from I ate noodles for breakfast
ReplyDeleteI love your comment always!
ReplyDeleteBy the way that jacket is so cool and lovely T-shit♡
