Why do websites say read more?

Websites that monetize traffic understand that the more their readers click on links, the more likely they will look at and click on advertisements. “Read more” links can double or even triple the number of page views a website receives, making it more attractive to advertisers.

What can I use instead of read more for links?

For example, if you're sharing a blog article with a buyer who is not inclined to heavy reading, instead of saying “read more” you can say: View More. Find Out What Happens Next. Learn More Now.
