Simply because I decided, using my freewill, that I would read it.
Just the same as exercising your freewill allowed you to make the post.

A better question might be, "If you don't have free will, how did you write this post?"

Addiction

I can't read!

Some of you are talking this post much too seriously.

How did you get me to read this post exactly? Yes, I read a post you made, but saying you got me to read it is disingenuous. It would be just as logical to say I got you to look at a tree today, or I got you to drive on a road today (I contribute oxygen to the atmosphere, and tax money to support roads via international trade). Just b/c you have an effect doesn't automatically imply you had an affect.

I suppose by a certain logic....you got me to read it because if you hadn’t written it I couldn’t have read it....but that does not confer on you the ability to make me read it. I scroll down the new posts and randomly select a few that may interest me...you got lucky that’s all. I do have free will, and to illustrate that fact I will now move on to the next post which may be more interesting.

You didn't. I read everything, including the small print on labels. Not always enlightening, amusing, or satisfying, but I can't know in advance, so I read first and ask questions later.
