I believe everything said made a great deal of sense. But, think on this, what
if you were to create a killer headline? I am not saying your information isn’t good.,
however what if you added a title that makes people want more?
I mean ARTINGARENA | art; for the world… is kinda vanilla.
You might look at Yahoo’s home page and watch
how they write news headlines to get people to click.
You might add a related video or a pic or two to get readers interested about
everything’ve written. Just my opinion, it could bring your posts a little bit more
interesting.
