That makes sense! It&#039;s been super interesting to see how other people&#039;s engagement has been in terms of blogger vs normal people! Thanks so much for reading and sharing :) xx]]></description>

Exactly! It&#039;s nice to feel like you know your audience personally <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f60a.png" alt="😊" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />]]></description>

That&#039;s true, I guess views are views! Like you said, the characters in those books aren&#039;t real. Thanks so much for reading and commenting !  :) x]]></description>

That&#039;s really cool that so many of your followers are from Instagram! I&#039;ve been working on my SEO, so a lot of my readers have been coming from Google! 
I completely agree though, views are views. Not only that but bloggers are a lot better at interacting, and you just feel more connected to them overall! 
Thanks so much for reading and commenting :) x]]></description>

You’re so right, i do feel a nice connection to my readers! Especially the ones that comment all the time. It gives me a better of idea of who my audience is, and I just think of everyone who reads my friends<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f602.png" alt="😂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> thanks for reading and commenting ! ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve wondered this too, most of the people supporting me are other bloggers right now. I actually really love that most of my readers have blogs of their own, because I feel like I can have a relationship with my audience that isn&#039;t just once sided. If it was mostly just people finding me on google I don&#039;t think I&#039;d feel like I know my readers at all, so it&#039;s nice to have something tangible attached to the name in the comments!
But I also see the other side of it, it would be amazing to be able to have a huge fanbase like a lot of the larger creators out there. It would be hard to keep feeling that personal connection though. 
Regardless of your readers being bloggers or not you&#039;ve built an amazing community that genuinely cares about what you have to say, and you should be proud of that! x]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In my experiene, it is almost exclusively bloggers, who comment on blog posts, but other people do read them. It&#039;s just rare that people outside a community follow a blog regularly. I think most people who aren&#039;t bloggers themselves just drop by because they found the blog on Google and then often leave again after reading the one post relevant to them. I love getting comments, but I blog, because I like to write and get things out there, so I will keep blogging (very sporadically) whoever reads it.]]></description>

that&#039;s true! I&#039;m pretty sure that my commenter allows people to sign in through facebook/google as well or if they want to comment and don&#039;t have an account to anything, they have to fill out the form. I understand that it&#039;s a lot more work to fill it out! I still fill it out for bloggers who don&#039;t have the wordpress commenter! I honestly just love leaving comments on people&#039;s blog. Like you said, I do know that some people in my personal life read my blog, so there might be some other people who read my blog who aren&#039;t bloggers. Thanks so much for reading and commenting :) x]]></description>

that makes sense! Almost all the people, if not all of the people who comment on my blog are bloggers themselves, but I never stopped to think that the views might all be bloggers themselves. That&#039;s such a great point.
I love reading comments and responding back. While I&#039;m not always the quickest in doing so, I love connecting with people. Having this little community on my blog is such a great feeling. I feel like I have gotten close to a lot of my readers for that reason. thanks so much for reading and commenting! Hope you&#039;re staying safe during this crazy moment in time xx]]></description>
