Is the follow for follow method on tumblr worth it?

[.]

I started tumblr again and I want people to listen to what I have to say and to pay attention to me. Even if it's only a small group of people.
I was thinking of using the follow for follow way again, but is it worth it? Will they see what I post since they would be following so many other people?

nah not really. since you're both only following each other for the follow and not because you have similar interests, there's a big chance they won't reblog/like/read your posts

i tried doing f4f when i started tumblr but i realized i'd rather have a small amount of "real" followers than a lot of "fake" ones
