Topic titles are sometimes the most difficult thing to write. There are some that are compelling and make you want to click and open up, while there are some that are just plain boring. Additionally, there are some titles of posts that are just poorly written. Even though I am not 100% guilt-free, I still plan to post this because I believe we will benefit from it.
#1: Be concise - Don't try to cram information into your title and don't try to communicate more than 1 key take-away in your title.
#2: Minimize the number of words in your title - Good thing that the Forum allows for only 80 Character limit.
#3: Be specific - Do not beat around the Bush
#4: No punctuation marks - especially full stops
#5: Use an active verb
#6: No filler words - Examples - Very, Basically, So, Just, Really, Highly,
#7: No acronyms -
Do you have any other rules you follow when writing a post title?
Note - It was
Dr Anna's post that gave me the idea for this post.
