Everyone knows that is what they should do

But how many does it well enough?

Just give it a read and the rest will follow if you do it right from your heart.

I read you and you read me. What is the major difference between I Follow You and You Follow Me is that it takes real effort to not just read it but to provide a comment that goes along with what you just read.

I know readers always say I read and clap and sometimes do not have time to comment or etc.

You see from that statement alone you can tell the one that has the strongest connection among the readers is the one who replies to comments and also goes ahead and gives the reader a read on their post as well.

I definitely can’t keep up with replying to the comment, but I know one thing that will always work is to start from square one.

Go find an article that interests you and start reading, highlight anything that resonates or stands out. Write a short thoughtful comment if you did like it or not. (show your effort because you read it) Before you leave, just give a couple of claps based on what you think it is worth.

That wasn’t that hard.

If I think I do not have time to comment, I would most likely not read it to begin with.

Clap without comment is just not my thing. You will get into a bad habit of doing 1 and then 2, and after a while, you’ll find out most of your claps were not followed by a comment.

From what I see there is about a 50% clap-to-comment ratio on a standard engaging post, which means 50% of the time readers are doing that.

Well, we can use it as a benchmark to see if the post is doing well or not from an engagement level.

But what do I know, you’ll have to find that out yourself.
