It makes me proud seeing people using SSB term.
I totally agree with you. It is almost the same two things that I mentioned them in my post.
Truly read other's people posts and then give them a deep and meaningful comment. This way people will read your blog more frequently than when you beg for it. You also will connect to more people and build many followers who will upvote you daily in a process. And of course, you must write quality, original and creative content.
Great minds think a like. :)
