  7. What you posted made a ton of sense. However,
    think about this, suppose you wrote a catchier post title?
    I am not saying your content is not good, but suppose
    you added a headline that grabbed folk's attention? I mean "Most Popular Linux Distro" is kinda boring. You might peek at Yahoo's home page and note how they create article titles to get people interested.
    You might try adding a video or a related picture or two to get people excited about everything've got to say. Just my opinion, it might bring your posts a little bit more interesting.
