Good article. A blog is just like a book, except every post is like reading the first page all over again. Gotta get the reader hooked, again, every time!

Great advice, I haven’t heard this tip before. It is quite simple really, but I know I’ve over looked it. Sometimes I guess the most obvious hints are right in front of you. Like A Good Opening Sentence or Headline. I will certainly apply this method. Thank you for the shared wisdom
I’m now a loyal reader!
Oh, by the way, I found your blog from a post headline of yours while searching for ideas.

Man, I learned so much. I can’t believe how many articles I have read on introductions that really haven’t helped. It amazes me that this pretty short articles has taught me so much about introductions. Thanks a lot; you have a new reader.

This is a great post! It’s so true, too. If people don’t like, or can’t relate to, the first couple sentences, what are the chances they’ll continue reading? Thanks for the great tips!

Wow, I never think of how the first few lines can result in you getting loyal readers or increasing your bounce rate. This was a well timed post for me, as I have noticed a lower number of returning visitors to my blog. Guess how I style my post openings has got to do a lot with this.

Thanks for a very informative post.

This is the best “blogging tips” article I’ve read in 2009. Period! And it’s true, a catchy title and great intro can boost an article to web stardom.

Best example I can think of: a while ago I wrote an article called “My First Big Freelancing Mistake!”. I wrote it quickly, it was more for myself and I didn’t expect it to be too popular. It actually received about 2k views and 10 retweets. Not much, but comparable to other articles that I’ve put some effort into. Why?

Here’s an excerpt: “What’s important is that in doing so, I made a stupid mistake that was going to affect my freelancing activity on the short term and that could have even jeopardized it on the long term”.

It has some of the ingredients you mentioned, but I didn’t do it on purpose. Now that I have some ideas from this article, I’ll try to do this more often! Thanks!

P.S. Sorry, Alex, for taking so much of your space with this long comment.
