I'd 'Like' That: Why I Feel Authentic Social Engagement Is Important



Oh, the power of a "like' on social media {Instagram} these days is both influential & in my opinion a little over-rated--these days anyway.

Liking {& commenting} on the pictures that appear in your feed is a pretty powerful thing--yep, just one double tap {maybe a sweet comment} can really make or break a blogger/influencer/photographer/creative makers' day & bottom line.

In an industry that's driven so much by engagement, I make it a priority to like & interact with the photos that appear in my feed--even the ones that end with #ad--why? Well, by doing so, you're supporting someone's dream, side-hustle, career, & creativity. If the photo's in my feed, I am following that person, because I like what they're putting out there--so, why wouldn't I want to engage?

Personally, I choose to engage authentically & genuinely want to support the other creatives that appear in my feed--that's why I follow them after all.

My motto is to engage with my followers as well as those who I follow--even if it's a short little note or a quick compliment. Doing so, because I want to, not because I am being obligated to....from experience, I know how much every like & comment means to me & I want to spread that to others too.

 To me, this makes it/blogging worth more now & hopefully down the road.

Fingers crossed!
