I should have qualified my statement. My advice was for people who are using websites to get visitors to take a specific action - like signing up for an appointment. Anything that distracts visitors from completing a required task is harmful to your sales. Your blog does a great job of conveying a very personal way of doing business. Good stuff.

I used to have my wedding photo blog be only about wedding photos, but since I've made it more personal, talking aobut my house, life, and stuff I like, I've found my site is more sticky. Guests are staying longer, and navigating deeper into the content. It's not just wedding after wedding after wedding, I mix it up by linking out to other peoples sites, embedding videos, and sharing fun content. Remember, that every business has their own client base. Perhaps your base Brian isn't interested in that kind of stuff, but lots of other people are :) Thanks for a great blog, e I don’t really agree with this idea.
