You Finally Got a FEATURE-Now USE It!
You just never see it coming. You write a post, as usual and sign off for the night. Waking up in the morning, every once in a Blue Moon, you see a little yellow star next to it. They're rare, REALLY rare-and exciting! I have long wondered why my Feng Shui posts don't get featured but no matter, you've made the big time!
Home page on ActiveRain. I usually sign off and sign back on just to double check (after wiping my reading glasses : ) Now, my question is, do you USE that feature to your best advantage?
Think about it....all these wonderful fellow "Rainers" that you've never seen before are nice enough to come back and comment. I've immediately got a new friend! It can be a daunting task to just answer the replies but consider this: I go back to each and every person who is not already on my subscribed list and leave a comment for THEM. Then I add them to my Associates List.
It might take hours....sometimes a few days. But then the magic begins. You start reading other's posts, they start reading yours-and you LIKE them! They write something that you may otherwise never have seen and it makes a subscriber out of you-and often times, THEM!
I already know I can't possibly keep up with the almost 250 people I am already subscribed to. I do make it a point to stop by as often as I can, though. And after a while, they KNOW you like them even if you haven't gotten to something they've written in the last few days....and they don't mind a bit.
I've found in my "travels" through adding associates and going to different blogs of people that I DON'T know, many of them are new. What a nice way to welcome them to the Rain AND let them know that you care enough to return the favor. I guarantee you you'll find new friends and possibly new subscribers. Besides, it's Good Feng Shui : )
You've finally got that elusive FEATURE-now USE it!
