Great post Berry! I definitely agree. I think sectioning a topic into several pieces is a great idea.
I was wondering. what do you think about posting these sections in separate blog posts? Do you think that’s a good idea?
Hello, Berry!
I agree that numbered title is clickier than the simple one.
People do love to read and find interest when they see the number.
And even find a good amount of excitement when the number is in the odd format.
So, thank you for choosing the great one to write on! 🙂
