Worried Of Less Likes / Views??? Read This

    Let me be honest.Yesterday I wrote my first blog in this forum.The app was new and I was curious of how it works.I constantly checked app for my blog to be published.And finally it happened. The Thumbnail image showed some views,likes and 3 comments. Comments…Oh my God…I was happy literally. In blogging world people rarely comment.Getting comments means reader has fully read the content and has given their criticism/ appreciation. I opened the blog as fast as I can.Went straight through the comments section.And all comments were like

Hi…lets help each other.You follow me I follow you. You like my blog I'll like your blog

I was like,

Seriously…!

Frustrate me started reading blogs and I found that every new blogs has such comments and I doubt whether the commentator has altelast read the title.I was looking for some valuable comments and I got really disappointed. Less views added fuel to the worry.I tried increasing views by re reading my blog again and again.But that didn't work.And suddenly a realization happened.Imagine a 100 whatz bulb behind my head.I evaluated my worries.And I found it to be baseless.

I Started blogging because I love to write and no one in this world has time or patience to lend ears to my thoughts,views or emotions.Imagine writing a huge paragraph about a topic in whatsapp and sending that to your friends.Would you trust they would read it by clicking read more? Or imagine calling your friend and talking about how to make masala bonda . Funny. Isn't it ? Dunno about yours but My friends definitely will reply with some golden words.People will listen to us only when they find the topic relevant.  So I found this platform useful. It help us to let out our  thoughts. Addedly none of my relatives or friends are in this forum, so they can't judge me.You would also have been in this forum for some of the following reasons.Lets debunk.

  1. Money - If money is your soul motive you would have opened separate blog or website which pay huge. So this cannot be the main reason for your joining.Even if you have joined for money, you having not opened a separate blog  explains that you are a budding blogger, whose primary reason is to improve writing skills.So views or comments should not frustrate you.Learning and improving day by day should be your main motive.Remember being consistent and writing quality blog alone is in your hands.Views,Likes and points are based on time of publishing, keywords and other external factors.Why worry of something which is not in our control?
  2. To destress - you might have joined to reduce fear,anxiety or relax.Writing reduces stress hormone.If you have joined here to reduce anxiety why to stress on views or comments,it spoils the entire context.

So stop judging yourself based on someone likes and views.That doesn't define you. Even if your blog gets single view just like mine,chill.Just enjoy the process and in turn celebrate life.Cheers!!!🍻

So true… Most of the comments in this forum are about views and likes only. It frustrates me too!! I have been checking posts here for the past 30 min and every post legit had these comments.

I agree with you..the comments we get is 80% like follow back ,read my blog etc instead of writing some views about your write up thats sad..hope your blog may help all understand how writing a view helps the blogger and motivates us too.
