Everything composed was actually very logical. However, what about this? suppose you added a little information? I ain't suggesting your content isn't solid, but suppose you added a title to maybe grab a person's attention? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little boring. You could glance at Yahoo's home page and watch how they create article headlines to get viewers to open the links. You might try adding a video or a pic or two to grab people excited about everything've got to say. In my opinion, it might bring your posts a little bit more interesting.
