And to understand what can be useful to us and what isn't. When we scroll through the headlines of a newspaper, we are actually choosing the article that we need, that may interest us, that intrigues us. When we scroll through titles after a Google search we do the same thing. What are we actually doing? We are skimming the information and using the titles to find the one that interests us, that strikes us, that we think is suitable for us. Does a headline have to be persuasive? Yes and no. In reality, the description is the persuasive element of the page, the title must communicate , rather than persuade. The risk of writing persuasively is to disappoint the reader, to not keep the promise written in the title.
Here, a title promises, it doesn't persuade: it tells us what we will read. He promises us that we will find that topic in the post. #3 – Create suspense It should always do this. Otherwise, how can you convince Special Data them to click on the link and read? Convincing is not persuading. Suspense creates anticipation, arouses expectation. To read a title is to expect something tasty, a solution, a statement, a story, important news. It must generate emotions in the reader and not communicate them. What does it mean? Than writing a title like “Oh God, I'm in crisis!” to talk about the novel that we cannot continue makes no sense, it is a personal emotion of the blogger, it is a suggested emotion, indeed, when it should be spontaneous and of the reader.
Is there suspense in that title? Perhaps, if we read the title in the blog we have been following for some time. But try reading it in Google results or on a news site, among hundreds of other titles, or in a forum, where the majority of users are concentrated who have the habit of asking for advice starting with titles like “Help! ?” The qualities of the title and quality titles If you pop over to Answers, you will find titles like “Should I write a novel???”. The great thing is, he's not asking for it, he's looking for information on how to write it. Punctuation marks are for decorative purposes. We have talked about the qualities that a title has, but we must also underline that only quality titles have them. In short, let's try to write decent titles and do their job.
