Unpopular Much? {aka Same Difference #3}

 Welcome to the third installment of Same Difference with me and the Pidg

For this week's theme we're talking about...well, it's hard to explain.

 See, Pidg and I were on the phone the other day talking about blogging (really?!) and what to do to get our little spaces to grow and stuff.

Which got us to thinking about what makes us, well...unpopular.  Okay, I think I said that word, but we were both thinking it.

We were laughing about all things you can do to lose followers because we've probably done it.

So, it was on...like Donkey Kong...we would each do our own take on Blogging Stuffs.

I thought instead of doing one of those "woe is me, no one wants to read my blog"-posts, you'd rather enjoy why I think it's pretty awesome to be a unpopular blogger.

Good idea?

The Benefits of Being an Unpopular Blogger

(other titles I thought would've been good:  "Blogging at Its Worse", "Do This to Get UN-followed", and "You Know You're Not a Blog Celebrity When...") 

 1.  Email

When you don't have more than 100 pageviews a day, you will have even fewer comments, which in turn means fewer emails!  That's fewer emails to answer that you secretly wish for.  Not having as many comments means that you have a better relationship with your email inbox.  Your relationship is stronger because you visit it so often to see if you have emails.  Your inbox will love you.

2.  Followers

Your GFC widget will not change in weeks!  No need to keep looking back each day to see if it's grown in numbers.  You know who is following you...no, really, you probably know half of your followers personally.

3.  Photos

You can have your hubby take photos of you with your cell phone.  No need to put that special overlay on the photo, because no one will want to steal your photo or copy it in anyway.  

4.  Content

You can write about ANYTHING you want.  Just like the photos, other bloggers will not steal your idea.  Or if they do, you won't know because you don't get a link back.  Oh!  If they do steal it, they'll just pretend they thought it out all on their own...because they are major bloggers with tons of followers...

5.  Skipping/Ditching

You can skip blogging for a week or more.  It's okay.  No one noticed you were gone anyway.  The ones that do will email you (wink).

6.  Time

Oh my goodness!  You have so much time on your hands!  And people know it.  All those blogger events in the area? The companies seeking you out to do a review? THEY DON'T EXIST!  So, think of all that time you have to...oh, I don't know.  Surf the internet...checking your email...looking at instagram...checking your FB blog page...

Oh the possibilities of UNPOPULARITY!!!!

See?

See, how okay it is to be a blogger with no following except for the handful...it's so liberating!

Yeah....

Sooooo liberating.
