RE: One Account To Rule Them All.....Or Not?

in LeoFinance3 years ago (edited)

Yeah, I have multiple accounts. Like you, I have a "main" account (this one), which is used for most of my content. However, I also have a separate "alt" account for my artwork, because a lot of people who follow me would have little interest in my "art journal" about ideas and work I am in the middle of. Our cats also have their own blog because I don't want to bombard people with cat photos and cat tales. So that's three accounts. But as a subset of the cat blog, we also have the "Hive Cats" community, which has an account attached. My wife has two accounts, one personal and one for her non-profit. As a joint venture, we just started a community about/for labyrinths, so that's one more.

Sometimes it is hard to keep up with, but it helps that the "alts" have very specific purposes. It's not a big deal, really, as I have kept "niche blogs" elsewhere for better than 20 years... at one time managing as many as 14, concurrently.

I also want to make quite clear that I have multiple accounts not as a way to "milk the system," but out of a semblance of consideration for readers; and as a way to serve "grouped" content.

Sort:  

Yeah for sure, I completely hear ya. I literally didn't want to have my content for ActiFit show up on my feed to respect people's vote. I want to make sure I earn those votes lol

I was bothered people would think my aim is to milk the system with alt accounts but like you mentioned, I'm really just being considerate not to bombard my followers with things they might not care about on this account.
