    I think everything said made a great deal of sense. However, what about this? what if you were to write a killer title? I am not suggesting your information isn’t good., but what if you added a post title to maybe get folk’s attention? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little vanilla. You could peek at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they create news headlines to grab viewers to open the links. You might add a video or a pic or two to get people interested about everything’ve written. Just my opinion, it would bring your posts a little bit more interesting.|
