Craft clickable and shareable headlines

 

If you want to capture your audience’s attention, then you’ve got to pay serious attention to your headlines.

You have roughly 8 seconds to grab readers’ attention, before losing them to your competitors.

Remember that every piece of content creation has just one purpose – to get the reader to read the next sentence and then the next. That’s why you need magnetic headlines that compel your audience to click and read.

Here’s some content marketing tips on how you can write a clickable and shareable headline:

1). Add a touch of curiosity: Upworthy regularly publishes perfect examples of clickable and shareable headlines. No wonder their posts routinely get over 500,000 Facebook shares:image02

If you’re a blogger or consultant, writing clickable headlines will help you make a great first impression on your potential clients.

As they read your headlines and the content that follows, they begin equating the quality of your content creation with your overall value. They start to believe that if they hire you, you’ll deliver the same results for their businesses.

Clients aren’t really after more page views or a decreased bounce rate. Clients want results that will generate more money.

Thanks in part to those headlines, Upworthy gets more than 88 million unique visitors a month.
