Following someone who follows you can be considered Hub-courtesy, but is not required for good Hub-etiquette. In my opinion following another author should only be done if you find their work interesting and as something you will read on a regular basis. If hubscore is of concern, following too many hubbers in a short period of time can actually lower your score, as it appears to be a little spammy.
Stick with following those who's work you enjoy, and feel honored that your followers find your work among their favorites.
I do follow mos of my followers. But sometimes I don't check my new followers . Getting a Fan mail become easier for me to follow them.
If you are posting good Hubs , people will start following you without any favor.
To follow them online is fine to follow them in person is stalking.
Seriously, if you find their hubs interesting follow them but it is not impolite not to follow someone who follows you.
If you read my answers to questions or my profile, you will see that I don't say things to be polite or politically correct. I also would not follow someone just because they chose to follow me.
Yeah why not, following doesn't mean that much it's just a whim.
I have over 700 followers just here at hubs and about 500 at facebook, I can't remember twitters number and two web sites; a book just published and one I am getting ready to get out. It isn't possible to follow all that follow me and I agree that just choosing what you know you will read is about all you can or should do.
Remember that If you follow someone, and you do not read his hubs, you Can loose the Hubscore.
Yes out of courtesy, I think it is a nice idea to follow a Hubber that is following you; however, if that Hubber's content is not applicable to your interests or beliefs, then I would say to not follow.
I think its good and friendly to follow your follower. I would love if you follow me...lolllzzzz.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
