Sigh.
I have two blogs that contain science content. One is directly related to my book about scale model testing and fluid dynamics: Fluids in Motion. The other has general science information on a variety of topics: Synthesis.
Since my book, Modeling Ships and Space Craft: The Science and Art of Mastering the Oceans and Sky, was released by Springer in October, I have had hits on my blogs from all over the world! It’s very exciting. It’s also marvelous to know someone is actually reading my blog.
The thing is, while I’m getting a lot of hits, I’m not getting a lot of followers.
My question to you is twofold:
1. Does it matter that they are not following the blog?
2. How do I convert hits to follows?
