The Blogging Community


Hey guys, recently I have been thinking about the blogging community and what I learnt about it in my first few months of blogging. Before I started Smiley Central I had heard of the blogging community but I didn't really understand it. I have also been thinking about about the difference between YouTube and blogging. So I thought I would write a post about it.

Before I started blogging I had heard of the blogging community in Zoella and Sprinkle of Glitter's videos but I didn't really know anything about it, I guess I kind of thought that it was like youtube. You know, only people on the 1 million + subscribers youtubers can be friends and make collabs (that's probably not what it's like at all but that's what I thought). In the first few months of having Smiley Central the only audience I was worried about were the kids at school but now I realise that the whole world is my audience!

The difference between YouTube and Blogger is that on YouTube, a lot of people watch that don't create content but on blogger, the people that are reading are likely to be creating content, this creates a community of people commenting on each others posts and leaving links to their blogs and actually having a pretty good friendship, I love this aspect of blogging. On Blogger it doesn't really matter how many pageviews or followers you have, you can still be part of this community but it feels like on YouTube you have to have millions of people watching to be a part of the community.

I don't know if I'm right, what do you think? Tell me in the comments. I feel so privileged to be a part of the blogging community, it feels like I have been on Blogger forever and i has become a second nature to write a post but I have only had this blog for four months at the end of this month.

I hope you enjoyed that post and I'll talk soon, byeeeeeeeeee!
