How to remove a follower

This morning while I was looking at my sidebar I noticed a few Rated R pictures among my GFC followers!! Trust me, they were not crafters!! Maybe "party" planners...but not the kiddos kind of party! Anyway, like with Facebook, also with blogger you are able to delete "inappropriate" followers. In blogger case you can "block" them. They probably will be able to still read your blog but cannot follow you via GFC. 

It will only take a few seconds. And here is how:

Login to your blog account and go to Dashboard


Click "Followers"

(yup, that's me volunteering for the tutorial!!)

You will see all your followers, pick the one you want to block and click  Block this User.

Done! No more Rated R here!!

  11. Oh! Never had a blogger with a dirty picture...that I know of anyway. But I did need to block someone pretty recently. I'm glad blogger gives us that option!

  16. I click followers but all I get is a new box, advising me to get a follower gadget and also to "Learn More" which just advises to add the gadget.
    I cannot find out who is following. I want readers, not followers. I do not even know where I am going myself. Thanks
