What you said made a ton of sense. However, what about this? what if you were to create a awesome title? I ain't suggesting your information is not solid., however what if you added a post title that makes people want more? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little vanilla. You could look at Yahoo's front page and note how they create article headlines to get people interested. You might try adding a video or a related pic or two to grab readers excited about everything've written. In my opinion, it could bring your blog a little bit more interesting.
