2. Keep Your Updates Short & Ask Question

Questions naturally invoke a response, don’t they? Hence, ask your readers questions to generate click through on your site. Make it witty, short and interesting, but always keep in mind to relate your question back to your blog article.
3. Skip the Long Link
Keep your update clean, because there is no need to keep the link in the text of your post. Reminder to you people that the image and summary of your article is clickable directly to your blog article. For example, I want to post this article from Jon Loomer on Digital Noobs, hence I paste the link in the box.
After that, Delete the link.
Then Boom! Time to publish. No worry and no long link.
