“What I don’t think usually enters into this equation is that as we reduce funding for education, it falls on teachers, other staff members and community members to fill in the gaps. For example, many teachers already spend their own money providing basic supplies for their students. As teachers’ miniscule supplies budgets are further eroded due to cuts from the state, some will spend even more of their salaries to pay for essential classroom materials. Effectively, that is a tax on those teachers whose good deeds are helping to obscure one of the many systemic inadequacies.”

Quote by 'Anatomy of a Post: How to Get Blog Readers to Pay Attention'

Headlines First So the first thing any reader will read is the headline, or “title” of a post. In fact, often the headline is the reason they’ll read a post in the first place. Think about how you find blog posts. Usually it’s in one of several ways: 1. Through an RSS reader or through email subsriptions. In this case, often the only thing they’ll see before making the decision to read or move on is the headline. 2. Through a link from another blog. Often the link is the headline of the post itself, and so once again, they make a decision on whether to click through to the post based on the headline.

An excellent post for all bloggers, especially those seeking real, subscribing readers. Read the full post through the link below.
