I think that everything typed was very reasonable. But, what about this? what if you were to write a killer title? I mean, I don't want to tell you how to run your website, however suppose you added a post title that grabbed folk's attention? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is kinda boring. You should look at Yahoo's home page and note how they create article titles to grab viewers to click. You might add a related video or a pic or two to grab people interested about everything've written. In my opinion, it could make your posts a little livelier.
