When someone new clicks on my blog only 40 percent is sowing . How do I increase this?
It depends upon which them do you have.
Could you provide the link to your site so I could have a look at it.
thanks

Allen, I do see nothing wrong at all when going on your website,
Everything looks proportional to me. The pictures are certainly not oversized, I would leave it at is.
Your sidebar is clean too.
Personally, I would reduce the number of recent comments, recent posts to a max of 3.
The Meta column also, in my opinion, isn't that important but you can leave it, no problem.
Great website!
All the best

How can I resize my header to show more of my blog?

Hey Allen,
Are you using a paid-for theme or a free theme?
What I usually do for tweaking free themes is ... well ... here's an example of what I would Google search:
"remove white space below page title - [theme name goes here]"
Searching WITHOUT the quotations, of course.
You'll usually find several posts on that subject so you will need to go through and READ THOROUGHLY what works. Try each one on yours until you find a resolve that works for you.
If I'm using a paid-for theme, then I submit a ticket asking support for whatever my needs are ... 'cause that's what you're paying for.
SPECIAL NOTE: When tweaking FREE wp themes, seriously consider installing a child theme so that any changes you make will not be overwritten when the theme is updated in the future.

Hi. Thanks for the help. I suck at the computer. Not sure if I paid or not. Using a .com and W.A.'s host services I think.
The .com is your domain name and registration.
A WordPress theme is what can you install on your domain to make creating your website easier for you to do. This would be an extra charge over and above your domain registration.
So ... if installed and are using one of the many themes WA offers at the time of creating your website ... then you are using a free theme.
Learning here will remove the need for you to describe your computer skills as "sucks" Allen ... honest. Just keep on keeping on ... one step at a time ... and enjoy learning.

I am thinking of using landing pages for my site. I am trying to learn about them.
Here is a training by PJGermain: How to add a Landing Page to WordPress I used the free landing page plugin he recommended. It is okay. I am sure a paid version would be better.
I use them to capture leads (email addresses and names) of people to build a list but I offer them something in return such as a free report or access to a free membership site. Here's a couple of examples:
http://nichesiteinstitute.smartmember.com/join
http://investingingold.smartmember.com/signup
There are plenty of tools out there for creating landing pages and some WordPress themes can also be used to create them. You'd create a page (rather than a post) and, if the theme allows, you'd select an option on the "Template" dropdown on the "Page Attributes" panel.
Every theme is different and so different options will appear (if available) here. For a landing page, you'd want to select an option that allows you to work with the full width of the page; i.e. the page layout is not the same as what's used on the rest of your blog.
Then you have to set up the page, add your autoresponder code to capture email addresses, etc and publish your page. It's not too difficult, just requires a bit of time to learn how to do it.
