I know!! I have been teaching people to respond to comments in their posts but these new folks complain that it is too much work.
Engagement is work. To build a relationship demands that two of you communicate and respond. Especially if they provide a good counterpoint or add to your post then reward that by acknowledging it.
I don't want followers I want engagers that not necessarily need to upvote me but if they do thanks. I need them to comment, to discuss to argue even but I want a reaction. Even a resteem would be nice rather than nothing.
Sure I have my been celebrating the numbers of followers I got but more than that I celebrate looking at my numbers and see 32 % engagement. I'm a nobody but that number is good for me.
32% engagement, how is that calculated if you don't mind me asking?
Well I am pretty new to Steemit analytics and have not used the more complex ones that you use.
The 32% is only a 7 day info on the posts I generate and from the social insights from steem.supply.
Data may be an anomaly this week since this is the first time i have attempted to analyze my data because of a curated post but it is amazing what kind of information is out there.
