Personally, I appreciate them both.
But to be quite honest, faves are more important
(to an artist or writer themselve)
Hm, why is that?Comments, yeah.
Everyone wants them.
ALL the time. No matter what. I've had a few times where I made nagging journals, constantly asking and begging people to comment my work no matter what. I didn't care if they had the time or not. I didn't care if they had a life or not.
I.
didn't.
care.
So, since I've seen (a few, actually a lot of) people get a bit overwhelmed only because some deviation that they worked on for hours on end doesn't get the needed amount of comments. But it has about over 30 or 40 faves. So what? I'd be honored to have one of my own deviations with that many faves. Wanna know why?
Because if half of you haven't realized by now, faves CAN get you noticed. Basically, it's like a dieses or a chain letter. It spreads.
One deviant faves it, others see it and they fave it as well. Possibly a few might even comment it. But that depends on who they are in general. I've had a few of my deviations faved by people I haven't even heard of, and still I get them all the time.
Unlike comments, they just give you more and more views. Nothing really special. Sure, you might get a few "oh that's awesome" or "that is so frappin' unique!" or whatever.
Well what if I wanted both comment AND faves, what do I do?What do you do?
Give in return.
If YOU want faves or comments, you're gonna' have to comment AND fave other deviations, and just like the subject before. You can get noticed. But it depends on the deviation. Though, of course, if you're one of those people who instantly want to get noticed. Then good luck. It's not gonna take you 15 or 20 deviations to reach up to about 5,000 or possibly 10,000 pageviews. But that is totally off topic. Maybe if I have time (or if i even want to) I'll probably do another news letter.
