No use of writing with anyexpectation that someone would read..even the the most active followers sometimes skip posts due to time and life. better to write for the love of writing and for oneself.

I know what u mean, I am not saying they have to or I should write for that expectation, I was just curious, with the number of hits i got on the page, hence the question. I beleive that what i write is my personal experience it may be good or bad.. its mine.

I do! I don't comment without reading. If you comment without reading everything fully, you could end up making a huge fool of yourself!

yeah always a good idea.. to read and if possible understand what the Writer is wanting to say.. we may hold the wrong end of the stick if not careful :)

dey leave comments so dat d person whose blog they hv visited, visit their blog as well. and they can simply write comments like "nice post" "awesom entry" n "great stuff you have got there" and get away wid it. The blogger won't even know whether that person had honestly read the content or not.

@Bikram,Pooja: I prefer standing within the context of followers. I don't want to take visitors into the criteria while discussing this is because visitors have motives most of the times...like we know..sometimes they say "good post" and stuff to increase their visitors and traffic etc...

 

If we consider followers, there are times when one reads your post and doesn't comment at all...as there can be things which they don't have a say upon....

Some cases even i try to reach out to my followers where in i might be looking out for advice and opinions...

But blogging for the sake of my own suits me the best. You never know when it is read or not....better be happy doing what i like... Smile

It all depends as to how well the 'article', is packaged. In today's world, packaging is more important than the contents itself

In a frank view, "nice", "good" and "interesting" are the most frequently used words when I read blogs....But, it doesn't really mean that I will use these words for each and every blogs I read. I do not read a blog which is not so interesting to me and I will not make any bad comment even if the post is bad. I just close the window.I do not want to cheat anyone by saying that their blog is the best blog I had ever seen. I do not want any readers who comments at my posts just for the sake of commenting. Nobody is compelled to read and comment about any blogs, it is just their choice whether they have to comment on a post or not. I will never comment any blog posts just for the sake of an impression or popularity of my blog.

 

But in Indiblogger, I feel like Indivine is creating an opportunity to promote a blog even before it is read by the promoter. I feels like indivine is not doing the job it is expected to do.

Hmm according to me only 30% of readers will read the whole content and in remaining 70% around another 30% will read the content briefly.

But we can easily asses the readers when they express their views when they comment on our Blogs. I can hardly find 3 or 4 commentators in my blog who study the whole content.
