Blog Front Page: Full posts or Teasers?

[peege]

Definitely full post - it avoids that second click users will have to make, and then they'll have to hit another link to get back to the front page, etc.

The author of this should add a poll to the first page so we can all vote. *Just an Idea*

I figure I should rephrase what I said before:

You should definitely do a teaser. Don't do an "excerpt," do a full teaser, One or two paragraphs that give you a more or less full overview of the entire post. If you read them, you shouldn't have any questions about the whole post, except what the solution to the problem is.


Take this consideration for a moment: A reader who is unwilling to make that extra click to read your full post is most likely unwilling to click on anything else on your site, making your ads convert less, most likely leading to a smaller overall value.
