In the post window where you write your articles you are presented with two tabs; Visual and HTML. Click on the HTML tab and after writing your post you can insert the <!--more--> tag directly after the word where you want wordpress to stop writing the content. A great place to put it is to leave the surfer hanging on the info you're presenting. That will surely make them click the link.

You can also customize the text that the <!--more--> tag generates, coz currently its default is 'read more'. Here's how you do it, insert this code in place of the <!--more--> tag:

<!--more [ continue reading ]-->

After click on the post/post update button try previewing your article.


Hope this helps!
