Pictures or No Pictures?? In last week's link-up there were no pictures, just text links. I did this to analyze which set up resulted in the most click throughs. Text only links win hands-down with 2.5 times as many clicks as links with pictures. This means if your post was clicked on 10 times before, this time it was clicked on 25 times. My question for you is - which layout do you want me to host - text only or pictures? Or put another way - do you want more click throughs or pictures? Please leave a comment with your answer.

I am all for pictures!! Thanks for hosting this each week!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilt! I love using leftover HST's! Love the quilting and the back too!
ReplyDeleteI like seeing the pictures and I don't keep track of my own click throughs, so I vote for pictures. Your results surprised me!! Are we just more curious when we can see the photos???
ReplyDeleteI do like the images. My time online is limited and with pictures I can go to the inspiration that reaches me visually.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great star! Love the fabric colors.
ReplyDeleteI like the pictures to save time on looking at things I am interested in vs. getting more traffic to my blog. I can't figure out how to link up today.
ReplyDeleteI prefer without pictures--more of a surprise that way. Thanks for featuring my quilt this week!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful quilt. And awesome that you used leftover fabric. I would have thought that pictures would get more views than text. Very interesting. I like pictures so I can choose the ones that interest me the most - because I don't have time to view all.
ReplyDeleteYour finish is beautiful and just wreaks with happy feelers!
ReplyDeleteI really like the colors in your Brick Cottage Lane Quilt. It would surely use a lot of scraps!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great finish with leftovers - will have to remember that!
