Are you looking for benefiting yourself while reading other people’s posts or you just hit likes to others blogs for paying attention of others blogs to return the favour for hitting back like to their post?!!
It is weird, I can find a lot of people hit likes to others blogs, in turn to gain more likes pages from the people who are being got likes by them.
One more thing, I see people only giving likes without reading the blog and even they don’t know what does the blog content talk about.
Interaction for others blogs is useful, while you are interacting, people can get more ideas, as it would support writers to write more.
If you look for gaining more likes without benefiting the other, it means your blog is useles, as you will fail for conveying the right message to readers about what you write. So blogs with no goals are useless. However, write with passion, make a goal for what you writing, make your writing with a goal to increase people’s awareness for things we may not know about., So that you will find more lovers more likes and readers on your page spontaneously.
If you look for gaining likes on your blogs, in no any particular order, quit writing immediately.
I don’t know, if I am the only one who noticed that ?!!
I agree with you, Hussein Allam.
I always open up people’s posts. Some capture my attention more fully than others, but even those that don’t I still usually receive benefit from. Even if from a few words or sentences. I hope the same for the people who reach my posts.

Thanks to agree with me, I actually noticed that since I started blogging, I felt that people are seeking for getting more followers and likes, in addition, they congratulate themselves by themselves by posting a post that they reached a good number of followers, I am not talking in general but about specific people who do this things. However, I saw a huge number of blogs with benefits either short or long but meaningful, and impressive at the same time. So the matters, they give you likes, and they will wait for you until you return the favour for them , but if you don’t do this, they will not visit your blog again, because you didn’t return the favour. It is too funny, isn’t it?!🙂 Thanks to share your comment here, means a lot to me, updownflight, you’re too kind🙂

I truly do like most of the posts of the people that follow me. I don’t follow others casually. It does make me happy when people like my post. Though I do mostly post for myself it is nice when someone relates to a post or finds it interesting. I’ve learned a lot of others’ posts, like yours, as well.

You are absolutely right that this happens. But be careful! You can’t always tell who is putting time into reading and not just liking, nor do you really know if they are just hitting like buttons. If they read it on their email, it doesn’t show up as a read. I’m not sure what it does in the reader list, but you can often read it there. Your gut is probably right about some people just hitting the like button, but you don’t want to call out people who actually took the time to read your words and I’m not sure you can tell.

Thank you for your kind words and clarification. I will add that comments are amazing because they take the conversation to a deeper level. I love it when I think people have a different impression of my post than what I initially intended. That means that it was not limited to one single thought or the original idea. A commenter wouldn’t try to write exactly what you said; how could they ever say it so eloquently? So they just add to and show their appreciation. I hope you don’t find any of my comments off topic or contrary to the integrity of your piece. If I tried to say exactly what you were saying, I would only fail to give your words the justice they deserve. So I try to lift them up, give them more to stand on.
I have so much love for your blog! It makes me think and challenges automatic assumptions. Mostly, Every Single One of your posts helps me understand others better. The value of that can not be priced.

Hi Miri,
Nice to have you here, the thing which it was forced me to write this, one day I liked one blog, because that blog post was so amazing. Normally, I give likes to topics and blogs which I am not following, and followers either I follow them or my followers too .As a result, when I like something , liked it from all heart. However, never mind, I liked that post, after that I received a lot of likes on all of my blogs in few seconds , how come he/ she read it all in seconds ?!! It seems like wanted to return the favour by giving likes to my blogs, what do you think now?!!
Once again, thank you for passing by, Miri! And welcome you are in the blogging world whose full of fantastic things, large of experience where you can find! 🌹

I always write what I feel and because my moods or the situations in my life are changing quite often my poems mirror the whole pallet of emotions 😄. But they are always based on my own feelings. I sometimes think that my everyday followers never know what to expect and I realise that it looks like I was emotionally unstable 😄 and how do I compose words? mostly they come from my head, inspired by music or pictures but sometimes I get inspired by something I read or I look for expressions and words on internet – English is not my mother tongue so if I want to use a word I search for sentences to see how it is used by native speakers

It is great to know that you noticed it too, they only just give likes without reading, how did i find that?! Ok, something happened actually, when I gave a like to someone blog post-can’t reveal his site name due to respect of others , however, he returned the favour quickly, as he hit around 20 posts in one second by giving likes only.😁, And that’s completely unfair very true, finally, I think he is super hero of WordPress.

I so enjoyed this post. It’s a fantastically honest and fearless “cut that crap out!” message. If I could selectively choose my own likes, I would prefer that they be genuine and from someone who actually found a level of resonance with my words. With that said, I don’t really sweat the others because they will click and then move along anyway. I can tell you that I have liked certain writer’s posts at times that I didn’t always agree with or fully get. Nevertheless I could still see the effort and honesty someone put out there. I support those posts because so many people are afraid to speak up (unless the posts are intentionally hateful or mean – I don’t dig that in the slightest and believe that it’s cowardly to make personal attacks in anonymity on the internet). Maybe someone else just appreciated the pics that they could see. However the bar is pretty low if one is hitting “like” via what they could see from my own photos. Who knows. I write to work through my emotions and thoughts despite the thick tongue in cheek style. If someone writes for validation via likes, their blog probably won’t gain the steam to really grow a community of kindred spirits in the long run anyway. Overall I guess I’m copacetic no matter the reason, but yes, I definitely prefer the real likes, too. Just know this – the like you received from me on this post was legit and definitely warranted. Loved it. 🙂
