I suddently got a doubt. Am I titling my blogs right? Are there any guidelines on blog titles? So I went to my new favorite search engine and typed “blog titles?”.
I liked what I got. So I am going to list them here with my comments.
"I know a lot of bloggers try to get quirky, cryptic and creative with their titles - I personally have nothing against this - but over the past two years have decided that it’s probably not the best way of attracting readers considering the above four points."
The entry is simple and to the point. I got what I wanted. I got a lot more when I started reading the comments.
This was an unexpected bonus. I use a wiki a lot and I normally put the topic keywords as the title. I never seriously thought about blikis (blogs+wikis).
This was much closer to what I was looking for. Fairly detailed post with lots of useful information. I will go with the author’s opinion that blogs are your ambassadors. Every blog reveals a bit about you.
Blog Titles should be Song Titles
I could not really resist that one. I think it is cute. I wonder whether this works internationally?
Finally here is my search link. If you find anything interesting, please let me know. In India, we are familiar with the fragments of a song or song title being used as movie titles and vice versa.
In addition to these, I did some analysis and found that the tags are the next most important way to promote your blog. Blog services like Wordpress (where my LearnLog resides) provide tag based browsing. So I can pick a tag like Learning and get lots of posts and articles related to Learning.
Finally try this search and see whether you can share a few tips too.
