  My best friend and I just started blogging. And so far its a lot of fun! But I really want to meet new people and get feedback! How do I get more followers and people to comment? I’ve shared it and everything…but haven’t had any luck. Any advice (or followers lol) would help! Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Dear oregonmomsblog,

  Just a few suggestions:

  1. Add a follow blog widget to your site. This will enable people who find you to be notified when something new is posted. See:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/follow-blog-widget/

  2. Ask and encourage your friends on FB, Google+, Twitter and LinkedIn to share/repost your blog every time a new one is posted.

  3. If you have other friends that use WordPress ask them to follow your blog on their site.

  4. Inviting Contributors, Followers, and Viewers- See:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/adding-users/

  Good luck! I will gladly be following you. Your site looks very fun and has great ideas!
