Aloha Friday #4




Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. The An Island Life blog has a tradition to take it easy with posting, too. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, as well. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!


My question is:
How do you get followers to your blog?

12 comments:

  1. Follow silly memes and comment the other followers :)

  2. I have no clue....Doing themes like this give you exposure, however, it depends on the content that the blog surfer is looking for that keeps them coming back. Mine for instance, pushes the limits in many varieties. Somedays its about my job, sex, fantasies, it is the full circle of expressions that run through my head. Best of luck...xoxoxo

  3. I am a new blogger, so I'm probably not the best one to ask. I was going to say the same things as I am Harriet though. I get the most traffic on Works for Me Wednesdays and Aloha Friday. I think participating in memes is a great way to get new readers (who will hopefully like what they see and follow). Make sure you visit participating blogs and comment on their memes (makes them more likely to return the favor)!

    Also, just visiting new blogs and commenting regularly will build your readership.

  4. My purpose for Blogging is for me and if I get visitors, I am thrilled. I am very happy to share with others and oft times I have something that I wish everyone could see. But I am not always writing for the visitor. Most of the time I am writing for me.

    One of these days, I will write for the visitor and then maybe I will hope for a larger readership.

    But I think the best way to get visitors is to visit other Blogs and make genuine comments. Honest remarks. It takes time to build readership. I do not have a large readership and I am not looking for one. But I do know that most of those who do, have built it one at a time over a long period of time.

    Good question, thanks for asking.

  10. The best way is to be active on other blogs. If you leave comments for people they typically will come to you and so on. Of course participating in Aloha Friday and other carnivals/memes are also great.

  11. I have no clue! I have had two giveaways, and got some followers that way. But most of them are just people who were kind enough to follow me because I follow them!
