How To Create The Perfect Title
Titles can make a huge difference in your views and following. If you have a catchy and interesting title your views and consequently your following can really increase. Here are some tips on how to create the perfect title for your next blog post:
Find out what’s popular– it’s always a good idea to do a little research and find out what types of articles get the most clicks. From what I’ve noticed lists, How-To’s and Do’s and Don’ts are quite popular and tend to more views.
Don’t lie- when it comes to titles it’s pretty easy to get carried away and write a fake clickbait title. Even though this might get you views at first it won’t really help if you’re thinking of increasing your following in the long run. People will fall for the title once or twice but will soon realise it’s just clickbait and stop clicking on your articles.
Keep it short- no one really wants to read half the article in the title. Long titles tend to bore readers and this will take a toll on your views. Make sure you keep your titles short and accurate for better views.
Keep it interesting- even though clickbaits are a bad idea and unethical make sure your title is honest but interesting enough that your readers will want to read further. Maybe puns, a sarcastic comment or a couple of exclamation marks!

I should do an experiment, find the top tags and titles and write about that for a week to see what happens. Not to manipulate ratings, learning about growth is interesting to me.
Yeah you should try it out just to see what happens.

Very informational, totally agree about the long titles.
Thank you so much!
I was worried that my old blog might have had too lengthy of a title (it’s on my old blog site, but will be reposted here when the movie sequel airs). It’s called, “Africa: More Than Hollywood’s Black Panther”. I asked around and everything the length was appropriate and to the point. What do you think? I also have a new series called “Davis Family Adventures: The Importance Of Family Time”. It’s part of the Davis Family Adventures series, so it will always have that prefix. Your thoughts?
I don’t think either of those are too long. I usually consider anything more than 12 words too long but if it’s less than that I think you’ll be fine.
Thank you. I really appreciate you taking the time to look at them and provide helpful feedback.
You’re awesome!
You’re very welcome!
Thank you for writing about this, it helped me a lot with my blog!
