To engage your readers, you have to do creative things. You have 20-25 posts on your blog. Use relevant pictures to make your post look appealing.

1. Effective Interlinking

One of the simple and easiest ways to engage your blog readers is by doing interlinking with other related posts. If your post is really interesting and informative then the reader will definitely want to read the other post that you have interlinked.

2. Write a Series

This is another great strategy that makes your blog readers curious and they will come to your blog again and again. Do not overuse this tactic as excess of everything is bad. For instance, you can start a series like 30 days SEO plan and you can write one post per day so, you can write 30 posts in 30 days. This strategy will definitely bring tons of visitors to your blog if you provide them useful and interesting information.

3. Use Featured Post Widget

You can also use a featured post widget in your right sidebar to showcase your most interesting articles. This tactic also helps in engaging them as these articles are visible all the time in the sidebar of your blog. If you want you can also use a moving slider to showcase your featured post.

4. Effective Description

The description of each post is very vital in engaging the blog readers. Try to write brief description that makes the readers curious and force them to read the remaining post. Highlight the description so; it is clearly visible to your blog readers when they land on your blog.

5. Reply To The Comments Of Your Readers

Another way to keep your readers engaged is by replying to their comments and answering to their questions if they ask any. You can install a REPLYME WordPress plug-in for notifying your blog readers about reply to their blog comments.

To make this all more interesting, you can even ask questions from your readers. This will cause them to comment again and again and thus this journey goes on.

Obviously, there are hundreds of ways to make your blog readers engaged but all the above mentioned tactics will give you best results.
