I find that I usually spend a lot more time on the headline than on the post itself. I like my headlines to grab my readers by the eyeballs and pull them into the message.
I love #6 - Using Numbers. I recently wrote a blog post using this technique: "Unstoppable: Jon Morrow's Top 10 Tips for Boosting Blog Traffic, Guaranteed to Supercharge your Blog and Skyrocket your Reach" in which Blog Traffic genius Jon Morrow (who helped set up CopyBlogger and KISSmetrics) recommends you spend a quarter to half of the time you spend writing the post on the headline. For example, he spends an average of 2 hours writing his headlines!
According to Jon, “If you look carefully at any great headline, you can distill it down to a fill-in-the blank “template” that works for almost every topic in any niche. The best writers I know have thousands of them either saved to a file on their computers or floating around in their heads, where they can reference them at a moment’s notice to develop a winning headline of their own...The more curious your headlines make people, the more they’ll read your posts. The more they read your posts, the better your chance of building a relationship with them. The more relationships you have, the more influential you become in your niche.”
Thanks again for sharing.
