At the minute all my posts appear with a summary/first part of the post and after about a paragraph you get the "read more" link which takes you to the full post. I am seeing more and more blogs where the whole post is displayed on the page.

Is there any benefit to having the whole post on the home page?
The only reasons I can think of is that it gives the search engines more data to index and it saves the user an extra click.

I do feel however that a user maybe put off my an awfully long home page especially if they only choose to read certain posts.

I was just wondering on what everybody's preferences were and to make sure I'm not missing something important or obvious.
