    I think that what you published was very reasonable.
    However, what about this? suppose you typed a catchier post title?
    I mean, I don't want to tell you how to run your website, but what if you added a title that makes people desire more? I mean "Exam Results - Final Exam for Ch 11-16 - IT Essentials: PC Hardware and Software - Version 4.1" is kinda plain. You ought to look at Yahoo's front page and see
    how they create news titles to get viewers
    interested. You might add a video or a related picture or two to get readers
    interested about what you've written. Just my opinion, it might make your posts a little bit more interesting.
