I think that what you said made a ton of sense. But, think on this, suppose you composed a catchier post title? I ain't suggesting your content isn't good., but what if you added a post title to maybe grab a person's attention? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little vanilla. You could glance at Yahoo's home page and see how they create post titles to get people to click. You might try adding a video or a related pic or two to grab readers interested about everything've got to say. In my opinion, it might bring your blog a little bit more interesting.
