Everything posted made a ton of sense. However, what about this? suppose you typed a catchier title? I ain't saying your content is not good, however suppose you added a post title that makes people want more? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is kinda boring. You should look at Yahoo's home page and note how they create news headlines to grab people interested. You might try adding a video or a related pic or two to grab readers interested about everything've got to say. Just my opinion, it might bring your blog a little bit more interesting.
