Your follower is not always your fan

Every follower not a fan obviously and a few sirs, a few mams, it's a realisation for us, few are whom you refer as fans and more are they are those, who read your narrative regularly, like it and comment on it regularly. Believe me they are hardly 10 percent of your actual clan ..So should not have proud feeling, if you are getting numerous of followers in your social media package, remember that it's a journey therefore just focus on something good you can do and share those feelings whom you think will be appreciated and propagated by your readers..A fan or fanatic, sometimes also termed an aficionado or enthusiast, is a person who exhibits strong interest or admiration for something or somebody, such as a celebrity, a sport, a sports team, a genre, a politician, a book, a movie, a video game or an entertainer.

If you are good writer, your would be remembered no matter owning bike or Sedan. There is a difference between a follower and fan. Though I didn't have many followers, I realized that they are following me only because they liked my articles and posts for some of the topics only. However, if they were fan, they would have liked everything which I post. A fan is an admirer but a follower is accepted recommend by master. A fan may be a fan of one or more celebrity but a follower will have one master only. A fan is an enjoyer but a follower is a disciple. A fan is following his mentor for his pleasure but a follower is following for learning and uplifting his life.

Differences between fan and follower: A follower is top of the funnel. A fan is at the bottom of the funnel. More followers but very few fans. Followers is quantity. Fans are quality. All fans are followers. But, all followers are not necessarily your fans. A follower is just checking us out. No emotions attached. A fan is emotionally attached to us. They feel positive emotions towards us. A follower is just there to be aware of us and our activities. May not take action. A fan has a higher probability of taking action on our communication and products. Be it engaging on our posts, consuming our products, etc. A follower may not be interested in us. Just to be aware of what we are doing, thinking, posting.

Fans would directly like it just because it is posted by you, without even reading. Followers would read it and if they would find the answer good, they would like it and comment it. Admirers would read the answer. If up to the mark they would write a detailed comment on it. But, if they would have something to say they would drop a short comment. They would disagree, too. They would be just like friends. Sycophants would upvote without reading it and comment ‘nice answer’. I want both followers and admirers (AKA fans).

A fan is interested in us, likes us. A follower may not want us to succeed, do good in life. A fan is a genuine well wisher. They want us to be good, succeed in life. A follower is indifferent. They will just switch off and a fan scorned can start hating us and can destroy us. A follower doesn't support us. Just leaves if we are down, not doing well. A fan will support us without any expectations, even if there is no gain in return. Simply because of love. A follower thinks how can this be useful to me, how can I leverage/exploit this. A fan doesn't. So now you decide whether you are my follower or a fan. Cheers!
