Importance of building a tribe
WHAT’S THE BLUNDER? You’re in business for yourself. Don’t mistake that for being in business BY yourself. There are two ways to approach building your blog, getting readers, and attracting a following
You can stand on the virtual street corner all day and shout, “I’m awesome! Check out my blog!” and you might get a few people to stop by and read or listen… building your blog readership painfully slow… one… reader… at… a… time…
Or, you can enlist the help of others (your tribe) who go out and recommend you as a trusted authority and a leader to their friends. They do this by commenting on your blog posts and sharing your posts on social media. You’ll reach endless numbers of people.
If you’re trying to build your blog alone, hoping somehow to reach a BIG audience, and make a difference, you’re taking the SLOWEST and least likely to succeed approach. You need a tribe!
Building a tribe for your blog allows you to:
• Reach a MUCH bigger audience than you ever could alone
• Plugin to a circle of support that encourages you and keeps you going
• Post new content confidently, knowing that it will be immediately read and shared
• Get your content all over the social networks, boosting your traffic and your SEO
You’ve got three options:
1. Keep doing what you’re doing... doing it alone and hoping for the best....or
2. Start building your own tribe. That’s smarter than option 1, and kudos if you’re doing this, but there’s a much better option!
3. Plugin to an amazing existing tribe of like-minded blogging entrepreneurs in WA who understand the value of working together and leverage the community to build your blog fast!

Exactly DNTL leveraging the community in wealthy affiliate to increase your rankings in the search engine is exactly what I am getting at here, its a great advantage that we have.
Good point! :) Luckily, we can built part of this ''tribe'' on WA by asking some members to leave comments.
It's a pay it forward effect, you leave one for me, I leave one for you; win win. That can give your site a little boost, than with others you can kick it in full gear!
