Why People Follow Online Content
There are a few simple reasons why people keep up with blogs, articles, or news sites:
-
They like the topic
Most people follow stuff they’re into—food, tech, travel, or whatever catches their interest. -
They feel connected
Good blogs can make readers feel like part of a small community. Sometimes they even feel close to the writer or other readers. -
They want to learn
Lots of blogs share quick tips or simple guides, so it’s an easy way to pick up something new without too much effort. -
They get inspired
Sometimes it’s a story, a quote, or just a new idea that gives people a little motivation. -
It’s easy to follow
Tools like Blogger’s reading list make it simple to keep up with new posts in one place.
How to Add Blogs from Other Platform to Reading List in Blogger
If you don't see the Follow gadget on someone blogger blog, or want to add other blogging platforms to your Blogger reading list, follow these steps:
- Copy the URL of the blog or website
- Go to blogger.com/dashboard/reading/manage
- Locate and click the 'Add' button on the right side of the screen
- Paste the blog or website URL into the provided space, then click 'Follow'
This might not work on all blogging platforms—I tried adding a weebly blog but blogger couldn't find its feed (or maybe I did not do it correctly).
