I have discovered a little secret to drive your blog’s post views up. This is not so much a secret though, as it is a simple technique. I started using this technique last month, and now - according to G analytics - readers are now spending several minutes on my blog at a time.

Have you figured out what I’m talking about yet? I’m talking of course about including images and graphics in the top of your posts. Ontora’s WordPress theme is particularly great for this because it automatically wraps text around images in my posts.

I try to include at least one graphic in every article I write – except for small posts. It’s best to find an image related to what you’re writing about.

Graphics, pictures, videos, and icons will all grab the reader’s eye. Web users love flashy things, so if you can get their attention with a picture then you have a shot at keeping them around.

Give it a try – you may be surprised at the results.
