I know which one you mean and although I did read the entire thing, it was still kind of confusing. Even reading that one small paragraph, I wasn't sure one way or the other.

Now, having said that, I know sometimes, especially with very long posts, people skim and miss the point of the content because they did not read it thoroughly.

I do agree with you though regarding comments NOT just to boost our ranking.

I think to a certain degree we have moved to a "headline" society. People are naturally reading a lot less, and trusting the title of headlines.

If a headline is misleading or click bait, it can lead to the spread of misinformation. It can lead to higher click-throughs.

The problem is for people that actually read the content within a clickbait title or put off by the content if it is not relevant to the actual title. I recommend writing captivating and interesting titles that are relevant to the content (foreshadow), but don't mislead.

I know who are you talking about, and I myself fell for it. She used the word if, but I did not read it thru to get the whole story. The way she put it is like she made the money but in reality she did not. I call that unfair tactics.

Good point! I agree with the ranking, however, occassionally seeing the success of other members is insipiring if I am having a slow bout. I especially like hearing about people's first sucesses and when they reach major succcess, or if people are struggling, I like to see people helping each other out. So I agree, its not about ranking yourself with posts w/in WA (that's a small point in my mind), it's about helping and effecting people positively! Thanks

Hey, Brien great post thanks for sharing. :-)
