I am wondering what you guys have found to be better, putting the whole post on the home page or just an excerpt. Whichever draws you more visitors. I currently display the whole post. You?
I will definitely go for whole content, even it looks heavy but spiders love it. if you want to put excerpts then have atleast 15 posts displayed on home page and also dont shrink the content too low.
Obviously, if you are putting more than 5 posts on the home page, you should use summaries. And if you have 1 or 2, no point using the summaries. I put only one post in the homepage of my blog, as I get most of the visitors from the search engines. Rarely anyone comes to my home page. But in overall sense, its good to use summaries.
