Importance of getting an attractive title

This nite I went to post some of my stories to digg.com. It was simply one of the articles from my ezine directory. My ezine does not rank well, and simply got no traffic from SE. so I use a little help from digg.com for promotion.

The article I posted was "26 Things You Currently Do with SQL That You Shouldn't"
Hey the response is good ! Only after half an hour I got 8 diggs. The max diggs I got from my previous stories never exceed 10 ! Now it has got 8 already. I wonder is the quality of my story so good ?

Then I went on and post another article "10 Things You Could be Using Photoshop For, But Probably Aren't". It does not bad and jumped a few diggs immediately.

You may have already realized what conclusion Im trying to make. YES, title is the point ! What is an attractive title ? The above example proves that the kind of "Top 10 reasons", "10 mistakes" that comes with an accurate number is usually successful in attracting readers' attention.

Well, the article content should of course match with your title. The reader already get a picture in mind and by reading the article their list in mind is filled. It is a great way to help readers to under the contents quickly and effectively.

I have composed a full article about writting an attractive title in my ezine. Welcome to have a visit.
