Comments on: Don’t Murder An Article With A Catchy Title http://www.wayneliew.com/dont-murder-an-article-with-a-catchy-title/ Fooling Around The Blogosphere Starts Here Sat, 11 Oct 2008 01:31:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: Wayne Liew http://www.wayneliew.com/dont-murder-an-article-with-a-catchy-title/#comment-2423 Wayne Liew Fri, 23 Nov 2007 02:27:13 +0000 http://www.wayneliew.com/dont-murder-an-article-with-a-catchy-title/#comment-2423 <strong>@ kljs</strong> This is the core but most people want to get a bang with their titles so they want to make it catchy. <strong>@ ninglun</strong> It has been so long since I heard from you. International Toilet Day, wow, that make me wanted to read it. Yea, this blog is a niche blog now. <strong>@ John Motson</strong> I wished I could have an advertisement on Shoemoney as well. :mrgreen: <strong>@ Deimos</strong> I don't play that much games and thus I don't get it with the first two but I do with the third. The title is great but don't make it every posts, readers might be p**sed off. What if your title is so catchy until it is not that related to your post any more? :razz: <strong>@ Kitkat</strong> Thanks. <strong>@ Sean</strong> This is true but some catchy titles like I bombed Petronas Twin Towers will get you many attention. :twisted: @ kljs

Well, I'm not sure if these count: http://ahkong.net/2007/11/07/hellgate-london-vs-guild-wars/ http://ahkong.net/2007/11/17/is-hgl-worthy-of-the-subscription/ http://ahkong.net/2007/11/19/almost-drank-a-snail/ Are these titles "catchy" enough? "Mind to share the permalink of the articles?" See above. :razz: "What have you done before a catchy title is being written as the title of your article?" I google search to see if I can find any results using the title that I intend to use. If I can find results with that title, I will attempt to modify the name of the title to make it "unique". "Do you have something to say about my tips above?" Them all looking good. Except for this one: "Content First, Title Follows" Actually, for myself, I build my content around my title. :grin: So all your tips are good. Cheers! “Have you tried using a catchy title for your articles before?”

Don't need to be tricky, just interesting should be good enough, unless the person doesn't understand it that is. A more straight to the point title would be the best. In my opinion.
