Want to get more interaction? You’re probably going to have to provoke it by writing certain posts and pieces that will get the comments flowing. Don’t be afraid to introduce somewhat controversial topics of discussion, as this can quickly help fan the flames of interaction. The sensational, bizarre and comedic stories can often be quite popular as well, as is anything involving a well-known celebrity.
To get an idea of what the public finds popular in text-based content, look to content-sharing and content-voting sites like Digg (http://digg.com/), Yahoo Buzz (http://buzz.yahoo.com/) and others.
Once you see what seems to whet the public appetite, you’ll start to get a feel for writing more sensational topics that invite action - discussion that will add even more (free) content to your pages. The more popular content you have, the more successful your site is becoming.
