For this exact reason, to engage my audience. It helps give me an idea of who is actually reading my posts. I don't do it every time. But with all that said, thank you so much for reading my post and taking the time to comment

Did I answer your question or did I miss what you were trying to ask?

Nope, I understand perfectly. I feel the same way sometimes: "Is anyone actually reading/appreciating what I do."
