I agree. I would rather have a nice feed of people whos content I actually enjoy, than a clustered feed just to gain a few more followers myself. I really believe in making good connections with people, as well as creating good content that people want to follow and read.

I am not a fan of so many following to get followers either. I dont like this strategy. I believe in making lasting strong meaningful connections.

That sounds like a good idea to me.

I agree. At first I thought hmm interesting. But this just isn't the way to go about it. Meaningful connections are worth much more. And I agree with @jeff001 too: then we'll just stay small. Who cares if there aren't hundreds or thousands of people that like what you're doing. You have to like what you're doing :)

Sometimes you just have to stick to what you believe in.
