Problogger’s Killer Blog Titles ~ Submission Favorites

Day 1 & 2 submissions have been posted on Problogger website: Killer Titles – Group Writing Project Submissions. As promised the latest titles run the gamut using tips from Darren Rowse’s How to Craft Post Titles that Draw Readers Into Your Blog. They include: communicate a benefit, create controversy, ask a question, personalize, use keywords, use power words, big claims and promises, and humor titles. We’ve got a few more days of submissions, but I thought I’d share with you some of my favorites. Nearly every post was well written and developed cleverly from the title These titles caught my attention purely out of curiosity and played on humor. Did you put your pants on this morning? Don’t Make Me Smack You Right Here on this Escalator Finally, My Laundry Smells! In My Dojo, Cheaters And Failures Are Welcome Who doesn’t love a title with a question? It’s a hook with a tasty treat on the end. DUH v. DOH - All You Need to Know Can I Get You A Slurpie with This Post? Are you a loser on the internet? Titles that elicit shock, spark controversy or play on humor often get me clicking and reading and, with any luck, sharing and subscribing. Sacrificing Goats and Eating Brains Do NOT Click Here Andre the Giant has a Posse – Do you? Move over Boom Dizzle, the ‘Spanish Fly’ is in tha house! I'm Two Socksy for This Blog The winning title out of the first two day’s submissions is (loud music ensues) “Fck Martha Stewart” 11 Lessons from the Movie “Fight Club” Check it out and tell me what you think.

Some great lessons in there. I clicked on several of the funny titles you picked out, for the humor hook. This contest is a great benefit to all who get involved. One you get traffic with a good title. And two you learn to write a good title. Good Luck with your entries.
