With a significant increase in interest for content marketing comes a corresponding rise in the amount of digital content that readers see on a daily basis. To stand out among the many headlines a person has to choose from, it’s important to understand how to tailor blog headlines to attract readers.

1. Catch the reader’s attention by standing out.

  • Avoid phrases or text that limit potential readers.
  • Use list posts to provide an easy-to-follow format.
  • Assess the Emotional Marketing Value (EMV) of your headline.

2. Clearly state what the post is about.

  • Provide an accurate picture of what the reader can expect.
