Admirers v.s. Followers?

[fishcouple]

I reached 100 admirers today. I've been always wondering what's the difference between Admirers and Followers (someone is Following you) which is under "interactions"?

What I think I have noticed is that Followers are those who show on your personal profile and are following you from there. Admirers are those who admire... and Favorited your shop. Don't know it I am right!?

I think that sounds right Kim. As a shop owner I think it's better for people to favorite your shop. Then they see everything new you create for your shop in their profile. I think the following is more similar to other forms of social media where your followers will see everything that you favorite.
