What you posted was very logical. However, what about this? suppose you were to write a killer headline? I mean, I don't wish to tell you how to run your website, but what if you added a headline that grabbed folk's attention? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is kinda plain. You ought to glance at Yahoo's home page and see how they create post headlines to get viewers to click. You might add a video or a pic or two to get readers excited about everything've got to say. Just my opinion, it would make your posts a little bit more interesting.
