Does it make a blog more personal if it has the picture of the author on the main page?
I just put up my sunburnt face picture on my main page after receiving many requests..

    It looks suiting for a real fisherman

    But there seem to be something wrong with the coding. I'm gonna put up a screenshot in a couple of mins.

    I do think that if you are writting from a personal perspective it makes the site more persoanl. From a business perspective I don't feel it's really needed. Either way the content should be setting the tone and making the connection with visitors.

    Well for me at least when i visit a blog with a pic of the author i know who's behind all the texts ...it does make u wanna read the contents ... usually spam sites dont have any author info for obvious reasons

    GFG, you are right! I am in the process of gathering photos of my writing staff to post on a separate "Meet the Decorating Team" page. I think my website needs a more professional personal approach.

    Great picture, by the way, even if you're sun burnt!

    Believe it or not guys ..after putting up a pic i find that visitors tend to hang around and browse around more ...by 40% compared to before!!!
