Finicky Feline has some observations about increasing blog readership, following Cowboy Caleb's epic post on the topic (garnering a great number of comments too).
Excerpt:
4) The more you write about how you’re such a pathetic shit, the more comments you’ll get telling you you’re not a pathetic shit, which is a lie really, because the readers gleefully absorb every detail about how you’re a pathetic shit, but are obliged to tell you how much of a pathetic shit you aren’t.
5) If you really want an influx of comments, do write about someone outraging your modesty. Confirm chop stamp you’ll have shitloads of comments and other bloggers linking that entry and writing their own views about it and discussing every damn detail from every angle and aspect. Remember to add the fact that you’ll soon be heading to the police station to make it more convincing.
