There’s a 300 word-limit. Most people click on a link. I do it all the time though.

No there isn't. The excerpt box is there for sites on the "Must Excerpt" list; sites that have threatened legal action, not for when you are posting your own stuff.

Most people click on a link.

No they won't as too many don't want to take the chance clicking on a crappy, virus and tracking software laden MySpace page.

I do it all the time though.

So?

It is clear that you are a blog pimp trying to drive traffic from FR to your site and this action is frowned on here at FR. If you really want exposure post your entire article and if is is any good some FReepers will voluntarily visit your site. Trying to force traffic by needlessly excerpting is for crap.
