Yeah, REALLY??

Anyway -

The score so far:

1. "A Ride up Waterton Canyon"

Posted for 3 days - 20 views recorded in the "view count" during the 3 days.

2. "Nude Bikers in Waterton Canyon - PICTURES"

Posted for 23 hours - 94 views recorded

3. "A Ride up Waterton Canyon"

79 additional views (after being linked from "Nude Bikers in Waterton Canyon - PICTURES" to "A Ride up Waterton Canyon")

4. Conclusion:

The title DOES make the post. At least as far as viewership.

So, we need to think about sexier and more provocative post titles, if we want folks to view what we post.

If we don't, boring titles such as "A Ride up Waterton Canyon" will guarantee that practically no one views what is posted. People will simply NOT click on a post with such an uninteresting title. Interesting.

Hey, all the auto manufacturers and others know about the need for sex in advertising. Why should the BF group be any different?

Also, I would venture to say that folks generally are not interested in general ride pics, and posting these is most likely a waste of effort on the part of the poster.
