I've been on scratch for about 3 months and, for that fact, I only have like about 70 followers. Help

This is not a suggestion. Also, 70 followers is pretty good for 3 months.

How did I get 100 followers in 2 months?

Anyways, Scratch is not about fame.

Take effort into projects, make them good. People will get interested in you and might follow you.

Post in the forums, once you have lots of posts, you'll start to get a little known.

Make SDS projects, those get a few hundred views.

Follow lots of people, they might follow you back. Though, it isn't a good way.

Be friendly to the community, if you're being kind to the person you're talking to, they may want to be your friend and follow you.

Scratch isn't about fame. However, I can provide some advice.
Try to be active in the SDS. This will make your projects appear when people visit the Scratch website.
Follow a lot of people. (self-explanatory)
Be friendly. (self-explanatory)

The best advice I can give you is to make friends who share interests.
The next best thing I can say is make quality projects, which will come with time and effort.
Another important thing is trying to get your projects into the SDS and Featured studios. Projects in those get very popular.
And finally, I'd like to say that 70 followers in 3 months is actually pretty decent so don't feel bad.

fame is weird just read this quote

thanks for the advice but, may i ask… what's SDS? is it scratch discuss scratch? Also, I am nice on scratch, and I take time making my animations and none of the people who follow me actually liked my projects so they follow me. At least I don't think so…and another thing is… I stuff all my projects in studios and that still does not work. My brother @Scratching-code has great projects with something i call “pro code” and he only have i think 20 something followers. Following a lot of people sorta works, but my hand gets sore and it always says “you are following people too quickly” I did so and earned a few followers (not all followed me back) Thanks for all the advice and I will keep trying!

yes it means scratch design studio

Maybe add projects in famous studios like famous people's fan clubs. Maybe when you make a new project invite all of your followers to a studio telling them that you did.

Good advice, but this topic was (probably) already resolved. You don't have to post again because it could be considered necroposting. Thanks!

Right at the bottom of the main discussion page, there will be a button that says “Change your signature”. Click on that, and you can make your signature from there.

Also, I suggest making your own topic to ask a question, rather than bumping up an old, unrelated topic.

This forum is for questions about scratch, not suggestions. Just a heads up!
