Why you should avoid boosting followers?

Nowadays many people wish to be popular. Everyone sees a chance to become an influencer, or celebrity, and it takes a lot of followers.  How do get the correct number of followers? How to get a thousand, million people to follow you? Why would they follow you? These are questions that need an answer. One of the answers is to pay your followers with boosting. Many applications offer this for money, and people will spam your inbox on social media to get you.  If you pay your followers, you will get what you need to know, but it is not permanent. The algorithm on Instagram will delete your followers. You might lose your account. People can accuse you of spam if you offer them a follower boost. Those followers are not people for interaction, they are numbers. Don't expect comments and sharing from them. Having a lot of followers with some tools is an illusion. It doesn't mean real people follow you and recognize your talent. It means you bought attention and affection.  Do yo...

Probably you have no experience with traditional publishing, or you are rejected by publishers.  You will build your reader's base and promote your books. You will make your book cover by yourself, or you will hire professional cover designers. You will pay an editor. After your book will be published, you will ask for reviews.

Virtual friends could be great friends too

You can't be alone nowadays in the real sense. Your cell phone is always with you, together with tablets and computers. WI-FI is everywhere, so when you sit at the coffee bars, you can check your gadgets to see is anyone there to talk to you. You might lose your friend's circle during life. They will get married and separate from social life. They will work in another city. Even when you will wish to talk to them, you will realize there is no accurate topic to talk about. "How are you? How is at work?" it will be a formal question, and you will get an answer: "I am good. It is alright with my work." Further questions will be: "How is your wife? How are kids?" "She is good.
