Insecure Blogger

Do you ever get anxiety about whether or not people will comment on your Blog?  I mean, you want people to read your blog, or else you wouldn't keep updating it, would you?  And how do you know whether or not people are actually reading your Blog unless they leave a comment?

My wife and I have a blog that we both update from time to time.  I'm not a huge fan of updating our blog, but I think it might be because I feel like I don't get as many comments as she does when she blogs.  Maybe her friends (80% of our readers) just don't feel comfortable commenting on my blog posts?  Maybe I'm a crappy blogger?   

Either way, as a side note to an earlier question from this post, you can actually sign up on http://www.google.com/analytics/ and see how many people are reading your blog, what cities and states and countries they are in when the read it, and how long they read your blog for.  Pretty cool stuff.

  1. Amen to this. I'm going to do the analytics thing, but I'm afraid that I'll be disappointed by them.
    Before class, Casey was commenting on how she has a hard time paying attention to a blog if it's just a bunch of words and doesn't have any pictures or videos. Maybe that's something I can work on to get more attention to what I have to say on my blog...
