200+ Traffic Generating Headlines and Blog Titles

You may not realize it, but far fewer people are actually reading your blog post than you think.  And in fact, you could be losing a substantial amount of traffic to your blog simply because your headlines suck.  I would argue it’s all in the headline.

However, if you have an awesome headline?  An awesome headline can increase click-through rates, multiply traffic to your site, increase engagement and result in more subscribers.  An awesome headline appeals to the target reader, answers questions they have, offers promise to provide value, grabs attention, and/or is intriguing and compelling.

Here I’ve created a template for high-converting headlines to increase your click through rate.
