Day 2 - Crafting an Irresistible Title for Your Article

This is day 2 of the Article Writing Course:

How you craft the title of your article is up to you. You
can create a swipe file of good titles you have found and
model your title after these titles.

Don't copy these titles. If you do, you will have a hard
time finding your article in the search engines. You want
to make your article title as original as possible.

There are four types of titles we will examine here. You
can use these title ideas to help you write your own title.
Remember, the purpose of a good title is to get your reader
to read your article and click through to your site.

1. The Question

The purpose of the question title is to engage your
readers. You want them to get involved in the topic of your
article. With all good article titles, you want to present
the problem and then the solution. You will elaborate these
points in the body of your article.

An example would be:

Are You Losing Your Hair? Avoid These Three Things

2. The Statement

In the statement title, you make a statement of fact. Use a
statistic. Be specific.

For example:

27% of Men Are Losing Their Hair...What to Do to Keep Your
Hair Without Losing Your Mind

3. The List

The list is a list of related items. It's very similar to
the How-To because you use a list of tips.

For example:

Top 7 Small Business Start Up Tips

4. The How-To

With the how-to, you are telling others how to do
something. It's like a recipe. You are teaching them how to
do one thing.

For example:

How to Double Your Investments in 30 Days

When writing your titles, include your keywords. This will
help you with search engine optimization. Keywords are an
easy way to optimize your articles for the search engines.
Don't overdo it.

Keep a swipe file of your title ideas. With a swipe file,
it's easier to avoid writer's block. Write down all of your
title ideas and review them when you want to write a new
article. It will make it easier for you to get started
writing your article and stay on track.
