I believe what you published was actually very reasonable. But, what about this? what if you added a little information? I am not suggesting your content is not solid., but what if you added something to possibly get people's attention? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little vanilla. You could glance at Yahoo's home page and watch how they create article titles to get people interested. You might try adding a video or a related picture or two to get readers excited about what you've got to say. In my opinion, it might bring your website a little bit more interesting.
