Are Blog Readers More Valuable Than Your Twitter Followers?

So what is more important, Blog readers or Twitter followers? Well the answer to that question appears to be very simple, Blog readers.  Problogger has been running a poll about this subject and the results which were released last week found that 84% of respondents preferred blog readers to Twitter followers and only 16% thought Twitter followers were more important.

To me, generating a good readership for my blog by providing good quality content and building relationships via that content, has always been my goal for this blog. My use of Twitter is to solely to promote and push new readers to my blog.  Twitter which allows short message updates of 140 characters is a great push tool and I find my readership and podcast downloads goes up when I tweet on new content.

I’ll continue to work on my content and my blog readership and my suggestion to new blog writers is to concentrate on good quality content and build your blog readership. Use Twitter and Facebook, which is also a microblogging site to help build on the foundations you set on your blog.

As always, let me know if I can assist you in anyway. I hope Darren Rowse at Problogger won’t mind but I’ve included the results of the survey for you below.
