What reasons to make beautiful girl photo as blog avatar even the blog owner is male?
I see many blogs that use women as avatars, whether they can bring in traffic?

    yes. so that more people ( or man ? ) visit their profile.

      I thinks so. but whether it is avatar spam?

    Most of the time, with the exception of the real female bloggers here who do modeling (and we have a couple), those too-beautiful female avatars are for make money schemes or blogging tips.

    To me, they don't offer a lot of credibility to the blogger.

    But then I guess I'm not their target audience either.

    I'd like to think most guys are intelligent enough not to fall for that, though.

      Yes, probably is a good tip but I think there are a few of lies.

      I have the opposite problem, people think that my avatars are fake, they'll even shout box me over it and so at times I will lose out on traffic. Such a jaded audience

    I think that may be used, because such a keyword may be large enough rangking in searh engine

      There is no keyword just sexy woman avatar.

    why they mention their sex as male ? If they continue with female many will get fooled.
    1. charona
      Maybe because most men are interested in sexy women.

    1. charona

    People like this don't have guts to show himself...they just wanna have traffics and don't have others method to promote their blog or what so ever..
    1. charona
      Yes, and I will not use the trick though this can increase traffic.

    there are few people who used female Avatar but i dont think so with female avatar they get more traffic bcz readers are not stupid.
    1. charona
      Reader is not stupid but sometimes stuck with the artist's or women avatar ,average age of their profile in less than 22 years and make a reader want to visit their blog.
  8. pandanartrepublic

  9. charona

    1. pandanartrepublic
      cause like me..i always want to know the viewers better..but when a cheap trick like this make all of us such a victim..
  10. pandanartrepublic

    1. charona
      Because we are men, but women may not

    I actually considered using a photo of my wife as my avatar.
    For the reasons you mentionned.

    But well, I changed my mind, the blue cat is OK
    1. charona
      that's OK

    A month or two back, I changed my Twitter avatar from the one I use here to a 20+ year old picture of myself. I made the change because someone made a disturbing comment about my daughter and I wanted to quickly switch out the picture with her in it. I intended to change it to a more recent picture of me without my daughter later, but a funny thing happened...within hours, I had several new young male followers.
    1. farangrakthai
      Well, and probably a few old ones also...
  13. idealpinkrose
    oh, I didn't know that men are using women's avatar...that's funny! hehehehe....
    1. charona
      it's going happen, yes little funny
  14. giemiller
    that's what we called 'pink hat'
    male uses female avatar and pretending to be female

    yes, that's true it brings a lot of traffic
    1. charona
      especially using sexy face.
  15. farangrakthai
    You mean males using a female avatar are called pink hats?
    I'll stick to blue
    1. charona
      I think that's would be better.
