If I have a productive and lengthy comment exchange with someone, is it acceptable to ask after you know you click well, at least on the topic at hand? I certainly don't leave "This is cool, follow me" comments, but I do interact on a lot of posts that I enjoy the content of, connect with the author, and then politely ask if they'd like to check out my content or follow me.
Is that alright? I'm trying to be a good girl dammit! <3
I think so. If you are engaged with someone on a topic, it would make sense to follow each other. The worst part about his example is that they do this in a rely comment to an article. Its very rude.
It's all about relationships. If you are comfortable with someone I see no problem sending them stuff to check out. But if it's a stranger, well... that's like handing out flyers at the grocery store. You're basically saying "Here, you throw this away :D"
Got it :D Thank you for clarifying, I'll be on my merry way curating and posting <3
Also, I think I've only asked for like 3 follows from other people, I have 70+ in just under two weeks, hard work pays off, sometimes I just want people I like to see my stuff though LOL
70 in two weeks is really good! Figures, you didn't get the vast majority of those by follow-begging, eh? hmmm... ;)
I just hope it keeps going and I don't get burnt out, I'm trying to pace myself a little better with when I post and varying the content a little day to day. :)
As long as you enjoy what you are doing that it wont be an issue. Make sure to write about what you know and enjoy, then its a win-win. With no expectations. I like teaching what i know. SO i win either way and hopefully the people who read them do also. I am at less than 3 weeks so we are on the same adventure right now.
Keep up the good work.
