   When i first started my cult, I asked myself the same question. It's been a little easier on Hubpages though!

   I think a lot of mine were wandering around in the same random circle I was.... I'm slow, so eventually, they caught up.

   Seriously though, don't stress about it.  It just sort of happens.  Forum participation helps... and as you publish, and someone catches a hub title that interests them, you'll gain a reader, and maybe a follower.
   
   The community is great, so I've enjoyed gaining new followers and following others and reading a great deal, but, as many will tell you, if you happen to be here for the cash, don't worry about followers in the slightest... Other hubbers are not where your adsense clicks and Amazon sales come from.

   The real question is, how do you make a cool collage like that?

   They say "absence makes the heart grow fonder." So what I did was, I joined the site and made my first hub in January and then a few forum posts and then pretty much ceased all activity until today.
   
   I'm waiting now for a vast gathering to form around me, but it's kind of hard to announce "Hey everybody, I'm back!" when not only did no one notice you were gone, but no one knew you were ever there to begin with!
   
   To anyone reading this, I instead say, "follow me now while you have the chance - for I may disappear and you'll completely forget about following me!"
   
   I'll report back on how it works out.

   When you read and like a hubbers style you leave a meaningful, well thought out comment.  Then you join their fan club. Most hubbers will return the favor and come to read one of your hubs .. they will become your follower if they like what they read. Make sence?

    I think there is a quote in the movie called the "Field of Dreams" that says, "If you play, people will come."  Same goes here, "If you continue to write more hubs, participate in the forums, and leave quality comments on others' work, they will come."

    attract .. oh my .. I think it's WAY past my bedtime.  There's no erase button on this forum so I can't take back my misspellings.  I guess I'll just eat this GREAT BIG humble pie right now.  :0)
