    Hi!!:) I'm pretty new here and I was meaning to put up a question on blogging, and I'm hoping I'm at the right place...
    Well here goes, I run a blog thekaleidoscopian.com and I do get a good number of views a day but not much feedback, I searched on how to improve my audience and one option was sharing your posts on forums so I decided share a few on here .
    I blog about Street Style, Talent, Music, Events, African Fashion , Do a couple give-aways and showcase a couple of my outfits too.
    I'm taking Liberal Sciences in Sudbury , ON
    so I do some Sudbury Street Style Features , like S.S.S (SUDBURY STREET STYLE); CICI Y
    I also do Street Style Features outta Sudbury too like S.S.S (STREET STYLE SPECIAL) : CAROLINE OSAGIE, for Talent, I call the Category Kaleidoscope Spotlight like *KALEIDOSCOPE SPOTLIGHT* ODUDU PHOTOGRAPHY |SUMMER 2013 and for African Fashion I feature designers like AFRICAN FASHION; MISS ANYANWU and on outfit posts of mine, I call the Category YB one of my most recent outfits on the blog is the one I wore for my birthday * IT’S MY BIRTHDAY ! :) *
    Like I said I'm just putting up a few posts here, you can definitely see more on the different categories when you visit the blog, I'll be doing a giveaway pretty soon too :)

    So pleaseeee If you have a blog you'll like me to visit please share as well , I hope I didn't go on for too long :( But please check it out, leave me your feedbacks! Thank you all very much :)

    Your Blog is Great! I love the theme. I do think that there might be a lot of "extras" on there, plugins and the like. But that's personal preference. I am not sure that you can change your "audience" without changing your content. I believe the content will bring a certain type of audience. If you are looking for ways to encourage engagement, that is something else. Getting users to interact is extremely important. I see you are planning giveaways.

    There are ways that I think are pretty good.
    1. Use social polls for voting. It can be about anything. Do you like this style? or this? I use it for choosing charities to give to. http://www.blogstartclub.com/vote-monthly-charity-february/
    2. The second that I have used in the past and will use in the future is a "Social Locker" or a "pay with likes" type plugin. Basically, you write a post that gets people hooked and then at the end of the article (or anywhere really) you "lock" certain content on the post so that a user has to like/share/tweet whatever to have content revealed. I believe that people love to share if the content is good.
    Obviously there are many other ways too. I think these two are easy and can provide really good interaction.

    Good luck! Oh and I subscribed to your youtube. I need all the fashion help I can get :)
