Negative reactions... are they all bad?

[WizeFox22]

I am asking this on behalf of my fiance. She has a personal blog and kind of vents her view points but backs of why on there and her one post has gotten some heat from Facebook on it. It is getting massive traffic but most people are spitting all over it and she is debating on taking it down. I told her not to.

If she likes blogging, she shouldn't quit.

What she can do is disable comments for say 1-2 weeks without telling the people.

Her viewers should be able to use a contact form or something of the sort to contact her. The naysayers typically won't go through the trouble of that. After that, lots of the people that didn't like the blog will just go away if they can't complain.

There will always be haters, but that should never be a reason to shut something down.

Well I think it is a good thing traffic wise but make sure she knows not to take it personal. The internet is filled with trolls and most of them aren't even worth paying any mind to.

I would say it is only bad when you get nothing but negative heat but then again, a lot of people in this world are seemingly hated yet have HUGE numbers of support behind them *coughTRUMPcough*.

Any press is good press I suppose.

Yeah I didn't even think of that. She could disable them for a bit to filter out the nay sayers. It isn't like what she said was bad it is just that people online tend to take everything so personal.

She knows and she doesn't. Most of the time she laughs about it but she is worried it will turn people away from her blog.

This is true. I am not a supporter of any of the people running but out of the ones left, Trump seems to have the biggest following and the most hate at the same time.

As the saying goes right? haha I just hope that she gains more support and less negative thoughts and reactions.

That is good. I know what she means, I would be worried but you have to figure so many people go on the blog and don't comment at all.

It is insane what some people will support and be passionate about!
