I think that everything typed was very logical. But, what about this?
suppose you added a little information? I mean, I don’t want to tell you how
to run your website, however suppose you added something to possibly grab folk’s attention?
I mean Leader Profile “Comment Interview”: | Middle Passage Mentor is
a little boring. You could glance at Yahoo’s front page
and watch how they create post titles to grab viewers interested.
You might add a video or a related picture or two to grab readers interested
about what you’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it might make your posts a little bit more interesting.

Thanks for the feedback. I think you’re right. “Comment Interview” IS BORING. I will change this. I really didn’t realize that title is published like that but just hearing this feedback, it’s dead on. I will look at changing it soon. Thank you. I do want to reach more younger readers, so if you’re in that age group, I’d like to continue getting constructive feedback that reaches your age group.
