  1. I think that everything said made a ton of sense. But, think about this, suppose you were to write a killer headline?
    I am not suggesting your content isn’t solid, however what if you added something that grabbed a person’s
    attention? I mean Weekly Electromobility News – Electromobility News is kinda vanilla.
    You ought to glance at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create news headlines to grab people interested.
    You might add a video or a related pic or two to get people interested about what you’ve written. Just my opinion, it would make your website a little livelier.
