After 2 months of blogging I have maybe 25 subscribers. Should I continue?
I don't think it is about number of subscribers (I haven't a clue how many i have), and it's something that builds up over time. I glance at my analytics/wp stats but take them with a pinch of salt. I find that over time google brings people in. - Chris Keene
Yes, continue. Stats aren't important -- it's what you get out of sharing and developing your ideas. Give it at least a year. - John Dupuis
should of added, yes continue, I've found you blog posts useful :) - Chris Keene
Just saw this via Will Richardson: http://www.teachandlearn.ca/blog... - John Dupuis
My blog seems to be a "summary" blog + some original research/evidence blog. I suppose such posts don't quite encourage feedback and comments. - aarontay
As others have said, these things take time. Don't give up. Quality content will find an audience eventually :) - Brian Krueger - LabSpaces
I think you will have far more readers than subscribers. I get few comments on my posts but from time to time people I meet mention that they saw something on my blog, so I presume there are readers out there. - Frank Norman
I'm coming to the conclusion that blogging is a misleading term. before it, many of us had websites, which we would occasionally add a page to, and often with subsections. Blogging is just this, but with timestamps and a front page showing the latest stuff :) - Chris Keene
I agree with John, it's not the number of readers or subscribers that matter for me, it's what I get out of blogging. I find it an incredibly useful avenue for developing ideas, sharing my thoughts, reporting on things, and engaging discussion. - Jo Alcock
What John D. et al said. (Actually, 25 subscribers after 2 months isn't bad...) If you're saying worthwhile things, sooner or later you'll reach an audience. After a year, if you decide it isn't working out, change it or drop it. Comments are *not* the measure of a good blog--some of the best don't even allow them. Chris: Not sure I see your point. Of course a blog is a form of website--but it's a distinctive last-in/first-out form. - Walt Crawford
