What I Would do to Make this Blog Popular

• I like the name. It's almost cryptic, mysterious; it's one that'll make you want to read into it. The web address, however, does not work. Th3enlightenment.blogspot; first of all, the 3 instead of the E will throw people off. That won't work. Secondly, I'd have to buy a proper domain name, because .blogspot doesn't seem too attractive.
• Put more effort into design of the website. I put about 8 seconds of effort into it, and put one of my favorite Dash Snow photos as the header. I like the color scheme (Black, white, and red, provides a nice contrast, and the red is really eye grabbing). However, it could look better. The header will become bigger (Maybe even part of the background).
• Get the name out there. I would contact other bloggers asking for a shoutout. Every view counts when you're averaging about 50 per day. 
• Make fake accounts and comment on my posts, and +1 them. Not too many comments at this point, but throw a few comments on every article. Have some dissenting opinions, and have them seem unintelligent (Not one of those "I'M RIGHT AND YOU'RE WRONG," but rather someone who seems unlikable and has an obvious fallacy in his (my) argument against myself (Preferably at the beginning of the comment).
• Shorter posts.
• Get rid of a few posts such as this one. It may be nice to have because it makes me seem more honest, but I can attain that perception in less damaging ways.
• Make more posts that can appeal to a wider variety of people. The production post for example, will not appeal to too many people, except for producers, who will probably not be looking here for production advice.
• Give away prizes for sharing. It'd have to be something everyone wants (Money) for something easy (Posting a link to the website on Facebook, making a blog post about it, etc...). Probably say there are more prizes then there are, and make up fake winners (Or give the prizes to friends).
• Share the blog with people I actually know. People I know have seen this blog before, but I've never given out the address. If you're reading this, chances are I don't know you.
• Have a featured posts section with posts that I would deem to be most popular by the masses. Everyone may be an individual, but as a whole we comprise the mass. And I'm sorry if I'm breaking your heart, but you're one of the sheep.
• Try to get people of moderate popularity to endorse my blog.
• Make an email account for this blog (I actually may do that one).
• More stories.
• The fact that clicking the banner doesn't bring you to the home screen bothers me. I won't change it because I just use the address bar, but I know people do, and I would have to fix that.
• More consistent posting. Look over each post so many times to fix every little thing (As it stands now I quickly scan over each post three or four times, and miss a lot of grammar mistakes and sentence structure issues).
• Make a guest post on more popular blogs.
• Twitter account. Make fake followers.
• Social media in general. We need to be social and all that.
• Write an ebook.
• Give the ebook away to visitors of the site for free. Tell these poor souls that the ebook is a $20 value (Actually I would sell the ebook for $20. Probably wouldn't get sales but that's irrelevant. Maybe I could just spam buy my own ebook).
• No better. Make it so you can enter a drawing to win a prize. Just give your email. Plot twist: Everyone wins. Prize is a $20 ebook.
• Create an "us vs. them" mentality. Reference it in a lot of posts. Make "us" seem better and more relatable.
• Would not reveal my age. I realize people don't want to read about an 18 year old.
