I have lots of followers, BUT NOT very many blog subscribers so I don't feel very 'influential' :-) - Thomas Ho from fftogo

True Followers who respect what you saying and engage you is more important than anything! Followers are followers no matter where they follow you, your blog, Twitter, Friend Feed, or other Social Media network. - Igor The Troll יִצְחָק

I was wondering a similar thing myself since I have more Twitter followers than on my blog. Perhaps I am more interesting on Twitter or perhaps the Twitter format is more appealing than blogs. - Riayn

A blog takes more energy and time for someone to follow. Think about it: Most people don't even follow 10 blogs, and only the exceptional follow 100+ or 200+. Twitter is much easier because the need to keep up to date with ALL of that information is NOT as important. So it's the blog subscribers that is a better indicator of influence because it takes more to process what you're putting out. - Ben Parr

blog followers follow your thoughts, twitter followers follow your life, friendfeed followers follow your branding. - K.D.

I guess it depends on where you post the most useful content. Being followed alone doesn't make one influential. Having ideas that people use and share does. - Heidi Cool

I don't follow many and am not followed by many. I do get lots of hits on my blog ("lots" being relative), and that's probably the most important to me. Then again, I'm not a pro blogger or integrally involved in computer tech. - Kimberly J

both blog and other social networking followers are very important, but i think SN followers may also help you by promote your content themselves cause they tend to share more than you blog followers. - homaid

for my audience, blog subs; actually, I just care if ppl are reading my blog - Kimberly J

Blog subscribers/regular readers. - Cat Laine
