A good picture/caption/headline or even a layout will stop me and get me to read.
ReplyDeleteAloha!
A good subject will make me stop. I subscribe to many blogs for many reasons. A good subject line always has me reading posts. Happy Friday!!
ReplyDeletean interesting post title, a pretty picture, good layout...
ReplyDeleteI think pictures get me the most, but I love looking at sidebar items, also! Aloha
ReplyDeleteIf I see a picture or post that interests me.
ReplyDeleteI will normally stop and read another blog if I see we have things in common. I also love a blogger that is full of humor.
ReplyDeleteA picture that catches my eye or an interesting title.
ReplyDeleteThe title and header. If the title is funny and the header is creative, I will take some time to read a few posts. Aloha and take care.

ReplyDeleteInitially the look of the blog initially, then pictures, sidebar content, posts!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to put my finger on just one thing.......
Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Have a great week-end!
Many things, could be a header, post title, photo. I love blog hopping.

ReplyDeleteWhenever I am blog hopping and finds a new blog, as soon as it opens and some music just starts, it will honestly turn me off. I just close it right away and I won't even peek.
ReplyDeleteIf the blog is easy on the eyes - great colors, great layout, not cluttered but still artistic, i usually assume that the blog owner is sensible. It will make me stop and read a little bit more.
If the contents are good but concise, easy to read, personal and honest but NOT preachy or judgmental, not whiny, I will definitely come back for more.
Good question. Usually its the comment on a blog I follow that I read and sounds interesting to me to visit the authors blog :0 Happy Firday :)
ReplyDeleteI get caught by pictures and by content that I find interesting -- posts about books, parenting, cooking -- and if it is upbeat or funny that is even better!
ReplyDeleteI stop when I see anything I can relate to. I like cute pictures and quizzes :)
ReplyDeleteThe header makes me stop, then the content will keep me on the page. If the blog is more like a huge advertisment for products I will just go away. But if it is personal, touching, funny and i can relate then I am hooked!
ReplyDeleteAn interesting post, a title, a photograph or a link from a friends site etc.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I just find a new blog because I want to know someone different.
ReplyDeleteGreat question~
ReplyDeleteNormally the name is what draws me there to begin with! Then the content keeps me!
My initial impression is usually a lasting one (based on layout and the most recent post). It's hard for me to get past that.
ReplyDeleteNice photos, or interesting titles/captions usually get me. I'll usually click on a button that looks interesting to get to a blog from another one too.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love to read blogs that have a nice design, but it all comes down to if the writing is good.
