Hi guys. I have a fansite http://www.britneyfans.org, and i recently changed to wordpress. I am showing in the main page the links with a small content preview. Should i change it to display the full story in the main page, so i get more content? is it better to google?
I think doing the previous way is already good. you can apply same methods for blog links to your site. put full story in frontpage will just waste your space and not really draw attention to visitor and hard to put adsense. just my thought though.
The more content you have on a page - less weight you will get for individual keywords (not sure if it is absolute truth though). In my blog I ended up displaying ~50% of the story to get lots of keywords on my highly ranked home blog page and at the same time make users click through to individual posts.
I would not show more,I think the way you have it now is the best. If you sow the full post you will some duplicate content issues of showing the same content on the homepage and category pages. Most blogs have this "problem" and it will require some work to fix it.
I to go with this option, Place initial introduction of the full content on first page and rest of the description on other page is better option.
