This has already been said, but the number one reason why I follow a blog is feeling connected to the blogger. I want to hear about their life. Day to day things, family, experiences, real feeling and emotion. I started out wanting to be an information resource, and I still like to keep that as a component of my blog, but I am learning to share more of myself like so many others do

To be honest I dón’t follow the blogs in my GFC list. I use my bookmarks.

However, I do follow people, just to return the favor of them following me. Unfortunately my amount of followers are not reflected in my statistics… So I’m thinking lots of people follow blogs, only to never return!

I’ve fallen out of love with GFC!

I love coming back to blogs where there isn’t a lot of things all together where I don’t know where to click. It has to be clean and nicely designed.

I’ve got to say, you hit the nail on the head here. I am not picky about specific “blog genres”, but when it comes to well-written and easy-to-relate blogs, you can definitely count me in as a follower!

Humour and being able to relate to the content is why I tend to follow a blog. I love to laugh and I love to read that I’m not the only one going through a particular situation. The ones that make me laugh out loud keep me coming back for more!

I follow blogs that are thoughtfully written and provocative. I love it when they are creative and funny, but underneath it all, I want them to be smart. Fluffy blogs with lots of personal ranting and raving don’t keep my interest. Personal ranting and raving has to connect with the reader somehow, and many blogs don’t.

I’d second your comments on reader support, too. But the reader support has to be meaningful, not just people linking up a bunch of fluffy stuff or I get annoyed.

I started a new series on my blog this past week and look forward to it catching on over time. I’m calling it “Sunday Standpoint.” I write a post on a parenting/family leadership issue and then encourage others to write on the same topic and link up during the week. They can take a totally different stand than I do. Disagreement is how we learn. I’ve posted topics ahead for the next month. I really hope others will welcome the opportunity to write about issues that matter and have a shared dialog in the comments. Check it out at: http://www.leadingmama.com/sunday-standpoint.html This week’s post is on the topic “Honesty is the best policy”

I really enjoyed your article about following blogs. I began a blog site about a week ago, and still I am not quite sure what I am doing. I would love someone to check it out and let me know.
Thanks!
