The Value And Importance Of Blog Titles


When it comes to SEO (Search Engine Optimization), there are quite a few factors which you always need to consider and learn about. These are off page and on page optimization. If you were to focus mainly on on page optimization, then you will know that without a doubt your titles are your main elements. It can be called the foundation for your growth. You need to have good titles. Your titles will then result in whether or not a
reader wants to read your post, and can ultimately lose you money. Here are some more information on blog titles.


Make sure you are using targeted keywords inside your titles, but at the same time make sure you do not stuff your keywords and repeat them trying to get better rankings. You won’t. The first thing a reader will notice on your blog is your title, and that is a fact. A good title will lead to far more views and traffic, whereas a bad one can lead to very low traffic and ultimately a bad impression.


A title which is unique, catchy and easy to remember will get more views and attention much easier than a dull, boring title. Be creative when writing your titles and add words and phrases which leave the reader with no choice but to carry on reading that post. You want to grasp them in and suck them into your loophole. Try and pick titles which make people smile, laugh or think. You can get higher click rates with a funny, hilarious title and this can lead to more impressions on your posts.


Did you know that 9/10 people always read the title first, and only 3 of those people then actually go ahead and read the whole post?


Use rhetorical questions and be creative. Make your titles important. Use capital letters where appropriate and make them stand out from your blog. Below are some words you can use which should grasp the readers attentions and why.


WARNING – This word immediately catches someones attention and they will most likely want to find out what the potential warning is and what your post is about.


SECRET – Words like this build up on the suspense and almost everyone will want to find out what’s being kept secret.


DISCOVER – This is another word which makes the readers think and they start getting curious, which leads to them opening and reading your post.


TRICKS – This word will definitely catch a lot of attention as people are always on the look out for tricks and methods which they may not have known before.
