  3. I believe what you posted was actually very reasonable. However, what about this? what if you were to create a awesome headline? I am not saying your content isn’t good, but what if you added a headline to maybe get folk’s attention? I mean BLOG_TITLE is kinda boring. You ought to look at Yahoo’s home page and see how they create news headlines to grab people interested. You might add a video or a related pic or two to get readers interested about what you’ve written. In my opinion, it could bring your blog a little livelier.|
