Five Great Places to Find Your Next Blog Post Title

Do you struggle to come up with titles for your blog posts?

You might not be short of topic ideas … but somehow, the actual titles end up sounding boring and bland.

Here are six great places to find the title for your next blog post:

1. Other Blogs

Now, I’m definitely not suggesting that you should steal another blogger’s title … but you can definitely use one of their titles as a template.

That is why it is important to understand the psyche of the majority of your visitors and write accordingly.

1. Analyze Comments

This could be the first step in this process. Once in a while, lets say once every two weeks or in a month, sit and analyze the comments made by readers on your different posts. Also check the comments on the popular and most commented posts. Try and understand that what exactly in the post, the readers are appreciating.

The Blog Post Checklist: Use Before Hitting “Publish”

How many times have you published a post, only to find out you forgot to proofread and that many typos slipped through? What about when the links you included are broken, when you used the wrong keywords, or when you forgot to optimize the post title?
