A blog tribe you say? Bet you’re kind of wondering what I’m on about. Having a blog tribe is basically the people you can rely on no matter what support you through pretty much everything, whether it is blogging related or not. You can message them any time of the day, and know that as soon as they see it, they will put your mind at rest and take your blog photos.
Having a blogging tribe doesn’t mean you don’t have other people supporting you, but these are the people you can turn to who literally understand your struggles.
Not only that these are the people I can always guarantee on if I ever need anything.
So why is a blog tribe so important? Blogging online can be quite lonely sometimes, it can be rough as hell to try and keep up, you can write and write and write until your fingers fall off, sometimes you need to have some people to talk to and to just vent.
Whether it is people following/unfollowing you, you’re struggling to be motivated, to write a post, or the words genuinely won’t come out. Anyone else had a moment where you just watch the screen and hope that the words will write themselves so you don’t have to worry about it? Yep I’ve had so many moments like that. It’s actually never happened – the words writing themselves I mean.
The amount of support I get from my blog tribe is incredible and I’m so grateful for that. Even on my worst blogging days I will know that they are there and have my back no matter what.
If I’m honest I keep my tribe small nowadays, I feel more comfortable with that. I don’t feel like I needed to at school, the need to have everyone like me, have all the friends, I’d rather have quality rather than quantity.
How do you find your blog tribe?
You probably already have them already, you already have people who support you and love you, they adore your content, they are a cheerleader for you when you need it the most & you can go to them with any problem.
You probably already have your blog tribe, they’re right at the end of a DM, a text or any kind of message, they’re there.
To my blog tribe, thank you for everything, I’m forever grateful for everything you’ve done for me. I adore you.
Do you have you own blog tribe? Do have people around you who you can rely on, no matter what when you’re struggling? Let me know in the comments!
Like what you’ve read? How about we become social media friends?

I love this blog post, I’ve never thought about it before but yes I do seem to have a blogging tribe thankfully. I love what you have said in this blog post darling, sending you all of the love in the world. 💜

This is so lovely! I don’t really talk to my friends that much about my blog but it’s always nice to have people that you can talk to or message about blogging related things and support each other! Lovely post x
A blogging tribe is essential to keeping your sanity in this industry. My blogging tribe consists of WithloveYossy, It’s Kira Kira and Dalal Tahira, I can ALWAYS rely on them for blogging help, inspiration and support.
Love this post!

I think I’m finding mine. I don’t talk to them often but they’re a bunch of angels when we do talk. Thank you for sharing this post. Having support from people who do what you do is very important, especially on the days when writing feels like a chore.
It’s so good when you feel you have an amazing blogging tribe, you always know they’ve got your back and always take the time to read your posts and comment etc. A lovely heartfelt post Amie! xx

Blogging can be lonely and I can so relate to the feelings of staring at a screen and hoping the words will write themselves. I’m glad you have a good circle around you who make it all worth it!

This is definitely quite a lonely thing to do. As someone that is a fair bit older than most bloggers, I find it extra hard to connect sometimes and being very shy certainly doesn’t help. I don’t like to message people or try and initiate a conversation because I’m worried I might be annoying. Most days I feel like I’m at a window looking in on everyone else just having fun & enjoying life. I do know it’s something that I need to step out of my comfort zone with. 🙂

Aw this is so cute Amie!! My blogging tribe makes me feel so grateful to have them, even if it’s just for discussing daft things that non-blogging friends don’t quite get 🙂 I think since changing my blogging style I’ve probably detached more since it’s less traditionally bloggy now and more of just a journal but I like having that wee link to other lovely humans and their online homes. It’s so special <3

This is such a sweet post! I’m very new to all things blogging, but everyday I’m amazed at how sweet and supportive everyone is! Like seriously, this has probably got to be the most sweet online community. I’m usually shy and rarely am i the one to initiate conversation, but I feel blogging and actively trying to be a part of the community is helping me grow out of that part of my life! This community has made this new chapter of my life WAY more enjoyable than I was expecting it to be lol. <3 Thank you for the post <3
I’ve never thought about this before but I would really love to join a blog tribe who helps encourage and support you no matter what x

It’s always nice to have people who support you, and people you know you can always turn too! I’m glad you’ve found your tribe xx

I’ve not really thought about this before but there definitely are a little group of bloggers who we’re all super supportive of each other so I guess they’re my tribe!

Awww this is such a lovely post. A blog tribe really does help when you need that support and extra push to keep going. Or when you need to get that inspiration to write more. Lovely post.
I have a few people but trying to expand my tribe xx
ah I need to find my people!
I would saying having a Blogging Tribe makes blogging that much more fun and enjoyable – quality rather than quantity is really important, as long as you have a good amount of friends there for you, that’s all that matters.
I would say I have a blog tribe in the sense that I could chat to them at anytime about anything – they always make me smile!

It’s so important to find your crew – those you can turn to no matter what x
sadly, I am still yet to find my blog tribe. I got really down late last year thinking that I haven’t managed to make any really great friends through loverosiee yet but I know that I am so busy and need to give everything more time! I am very happy for you!!
Rosie
There are definitely certain people in the blogging community that I always interact with and I’m so grateful that they are there x

I love this post and I totally agree that blogging can be quite lonely at times. I found my blog tribe back in 2017 but continue to do so everyday. ALSO, shoutout to Nancy of exquisitely.me for being one of the reasons I still blog today!

Love that you found your blog tribe! It is important that we surround ourselves with people who are supportive of us and spread positivity all around. I like that it is also full of people who might have experienced something similar and people can relate to something, like those annoying follow/unfollow accounts. Sending you positive vibes!

Aww i love this blog post! blogging can be so lonely sometimes, especially when you’re the only one of your friends doing it! it is so great to have blogger friends and a tribe! For all the support and all.
I’m still finding my blog tribe and I think I have more close friends who don’t actively support my blog but that doesn’t matter to me anyway, but you’re definitely one of my online tribe!! You’re always so supportive and you have such a lovely online presence. Thanks for sharing + I’m glad you have such great people around you who give you the boost you need and are down for you no matter what. xx
This is such a lovely post Amie! Blogging tribes are literally a god send, and it’s so great because they understand when you want to have a moan, they’ve probably had the same issues at some point!

Such a lovely post, inspiring as well! I have never thought of a blog tribe and I am slowly finding mines.. it’s the little things like including you in little posts on twitter or a little message to ask how you are that mean the most! 💗

I didn’t know blog tribe was a thing ! Will keep an eye out for a support group now! Thank for this sharing the post.
Such a lovely post to read! I agree, bloggers can make you feel so much better about everything, sometimes even more than your friends in real life. I don’t know what I would do without them! x
This is such an empowering post! It can definitely be a lonely job sometimes, especially when non-bloggers don’t quite understand what it is like. I’m so glad you have that support around you and that it is working to help keep you motivated. Lovely post.
Aww this is cute and I can definitely see why having this would be beneficial! I’m still fairly new to blogging so not quite sure I’ve found my people yet – but fingers crossed! None of my friends in the “real world” know about my blog either. I don’t feel quite ready to share it with anyone I know yet 🙈
It’s great that you have a group of faithfuls that you can rely on ❤

Ahh, I love this! I haven’t found my blog tribe yet, but I genuinely hope I do soon.

I really do need a blog tribe, I have a few people who are always supportive, but I do feel as if I am a bit on the fence.
I love this post! My blog tribe is small but the people in it are all so so wonderful, I think I’d have given up without them! xo

I love how supportive the blogging tribe is! I have found such great support on Twitter. I wasn’t recommended to use Twitter by some other bloggers; however, I’m so glad I eventually found my way there! The support really keeps me going!

I love this post. As a blogger it’s so good to have likeminded people around to share your ups and downs with.

You didn’t really mention who your blog tribe are hehe. It s always nice to have a blogger friend around to talk to and I hope one day I will get to that point with someone but I am not in a rush.
I love the blog tribe concept since is so positive and human. I feel frequently lonely while blogging so as you said, it feels amazing to interact with supportive people who have the power to make your day with a single comment.
Great post! I hope you keep blogging as brilliantly as you always do.
