The article title or the newsletter title is the key to getting people to open up and read your article. Catchy titles for science projects can make the reader enthusiastic. A good title sums up what the essay is all about. With the help of a nice title, you can influence a book buyer to buy your book. People do judge the book by its cover. Without an attractive title, the rest of your words may be in vain.
- For writing impressive titles, you should first take into consideration the subject matter, how you are going to argue, etc. If you have chosen one word, then you should look for the synonyms; as you may get a catchier word than the original word you've chosen.
- Your title should not be either too long or too short. Don't cram too much information into the title. Re-read your title aloud and check whether it sounds like a paragraph, cut out some words to make it as concise as possible. The title should sound catchy.
- Being specific will make your reader pay more attention to your articles, essays or newsletters. The title should reflect the things which the audience is looking for.
- Determine your audience and then decide on a title. For writing a better title, you should put yourself in the reader's shoes.
- You can then try puns or play on words which can give your title a clever element as long as they're not overly cheesy.
- You may try imitating any famous TV show title or select a phrase from any famous song which can work as a catchy title.
- You should avoid 'difficult to pronounce words' in your title. The language should be simple.
