Please Sir, Can I Have Another Click...Blog Chat


Well it's been a while since we had our last blogging chit chat.... So let's talk about a few things. I would love to know your opinion of 'the page break'. You know, you click over to your favorite blog....or a new one and half way through the post you hit "click here to continue" or "more after the break". It requires you to click again and see the rest of ......whatever. 

For the super long posts with loads of pictures, I get it....it takes a really long time to load all those shots and it is probably faster to do it this way. BUT, that's not the ones I am talking about. I am talking about the ones that have only a paragraph more after the additional 'click'. The ones that.....OK, I'll say it.....the ones where it feels like they are only trying to get an additional click out of you. The ones that feel like they are trying to manipulate their numbers. Those! 

How do you feel about the page breaks? Do you click on? Be honest. 

I'll go first, I usually don't. I can count on one hand the number of bloggers or blog posts in a day that I am willing to 'click to continue'. By the way, there is a really easy way around that extra click, and if all of you hate it, I'll teach you how.

I try really hard to visit all my 'friends'. I try even harder to leave comments when I have visited because it feels great to get a comment. It never gets old, and everyone likes them. If you don't have word verification on, then you will most likely get a comment from me. If you have your email address in your profile, then you will probably get a reply from me....one time or another. Side note, don't use your Google Plus in your profile.

But, if you want me to visit your blog (one click). Follow the break (second click). And leave a comment (third click)....that is a lot to expect.

Now it's your turn...what are your thoughts on the page break? Look, we are not going to change the world, we are just sharing our thoughts. 

And if you use the page break, why do you do it?

Here is an update to all of this.
