Absolute no doubt: divide it in small chapters. Counter: - a bit more work to do. Pro: - you can set posts of optimal length. Is well known most of people will not read long articles. - you make people interested about the subject to keep coming back to your blog = traffic source. - short articles are easy to be saturated with key words and expressions = good for SEO.

Agreed 100% - just don't forget to make it clear at the start that you're posting a series of articles about it, so your visitors know to come back.

I am not really good in writing article but for me I want to read only one article about global warming. Maybe divide them in only one blog. I will have an interest in the blog if it's informative. I suggest you divide your blog in three parts but not separate posts. If I am the reader and I read about 'what is global warming?' and I read about only the meaning. It seems like not so informative for me because i was expecting more like cause and effect. With that feedback I wont visit your site again. It's kinda hassle for me to look for the related topic just to know the cause and effect of it. But if in one post I read everything regarding global warming and all I need to learn about it. I will feel like 'wow this is very informative'. I would feel like wanted to subscibe in your blog because with that one post I learned a lot. Just Don't make each part too long. And maybe put a sub-title(is this what its called?) so if we view your blog and read the sub-titles that there's cause and effect we will easily understand that you will also discuss those things in your blog.

Sorry but I kinda don't get what you mean. Anyway, what I said was just my opinion as a reader but of course people have different views. I am new in that blog thing so I don't really know what kind of blog that gets a lot of traffic. And I don't really read blogs everyday. So I am really not sure.

U should write many posts..Like its effets,causes etc... And link it to posts so that it will be helpful to go to the other post...I mean..Write a single post "Global warming". And its obviously that u will describe abt its causes and effects...Link causes in the Main post...U will get more views....

I hope you are learning new ways to bring traffic to your blogs that you have. I would like to how much success you are getting from your campaign. And coming to your question, yes it is always better if you split the article into some parts , because people do not like to read article which are lengthy in nature also adding picture will make your article more enjoyable for reading.

I would suggest you post it in parts like a series. However everything depends on what you're comfortable with. Writing in parts would make people follow you and will make them ask for more. Make the the introduction compelling that it should make a mark on the readers.
