36: Benefit X and Benefit Y

This is the “how-to” format but with a twist, emphasizing two distinct benefits. While everyone else is giving one benefit in their titles, you’re giving two. Lose weight and feel great. Save time and money. More examples:

  • Shed Pounds and Boost Energy with This Revolutionary Fitness Routine
  • Have the Most Gorgeous Lawn in Your Neighborhood with Less Work
  • Save Time and Money by DIY Bathroom Remodeling
  • Ace the MCAT and Secure Your Spot in a Prestigious Medical Program

37: Science-Backed

If your topic is backed by science, then you can use it in your title to enhance your credibility.

A valuable starting point for your scientific investigation is Google Scholar (http://scholar.google.com/). It serves as a searchable repository of numerous academic and scientific journals. While you might often encounter only the abstract (a summary) of the article, some journals might request payment for the full transcript. Nevertheless, before contemplating that, perform a search for the article’s title and author names. Occasionally, authors themselves host articles on their personal websites, such as university pages. Examples of science reports:

  • The Science of Safe and Swift Weight Loss
  • The Scientific Solution to Look a Decade Younger
  • Muscle Mastery: The Scientific Approach to Bodybuilding Excellence
  • Unraveling the Science of Becoming a Top-Notch Pool Player
  • The Science Behind Positive Thinking and Achieving Success and Happiness

 

38: Specific Money Amounts

Using an actual number is eye catching, and even more so when you place a pound, euro, or dollar sign in front of it. Instead of saying, “Enjoy a luxurious vacation on a budget,” provide specific and eye-catching figures like “Indulge in a Luxury Getaway for Just $50 a Day.” More examples:

  • How to Travel Europe on $50 a Day
  • How to Build a $5,270/mo Income through Self-Publishing
  • How to Slice $200 Off Your Monthly Grocery Expenses
  • How to Buy Your Dream Home for $125,000 or Less
