We work on a social media platform and here the first thing that everyone wants to see is the number of followers. Be if Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Hive, etc.
This is a number that shows how much is the value of the account because when we spend more time with the community then we earn more followers. I have about to complete 2 years on this platform but my followers are only approx 200 so it's like in one year I got just 100 followers. I know that this is a very small number and here I can see some people who keep on running contests and maybe because of those reasons they have followers in thousands.
I have a Twitter account also and there my follower is just slightly more than 100 (128 to be precise). I see a dozen of tweets every day where people are doing giveaways with some conditions and rules. The first rule is give them a follow and I rarely see any tweet that is for giveaway without any follow. Not sure how much such tweets are genuine and to be honest I never got any giveaway but have the curiosity to know how this following thing works.
It certainly looks good if one has thousands of followers but on a blockchain platform, if these followers are engaging then I don't think that it's of any use. I see many authors over here who are sharing their content but I hardly see any comment on the posts but their followers are in thousands.
There is a ting like the fake following but it works only on Twitter or Facebook and for sure not here on this blockchain platform. So if I have just 200 followers and I get a couple of engaging comments on my posts then it's better than having thousands of followers with zero engagement.
I would like to know what you guys think about it. Please share your opinion.
Thank you so much.
Have a great day.
