I think everything typed made a ton of sense. But, what about this? suppose you added a little content? I ain't suggesting your content isn't solid, but suppose you added something to maybe get a person's attention? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little boring. You ought to look at Yahoo's home page and see how they write article titles to grab viewers to open the links. You might try adding a video or a related pic or two to grab people excited about everything've got to say. In my opinion, it could make your posts a little bit more interesting.
