Hi. I think you did this wrong. What you can do is list a few examples here then link to your swipe file. I have no idea if I even want or need your swipe file. But thanks for sharing.

Ivraa,

The gesture is appreciated. I debated whether or not to post anything in response to this, but for the sake of newbie copywriters who may download your swipe file, I felt it necessary to give some constructive criticism

I find the majority of headlines in this swipe file to be very vague and mostly useless.

For example, 126) The Hottest ____ Anywhere!

It means nothing. The Hottest Cat Anywhere! The Hottest Shirt Anywhere! The Hottest Ebook Anywhere!

Other equally useless swipes are:
112. Secrets of (some kind of expert) Secrets of Doctors, Secrets of Cats.
111. Read This and (threat). Read This and DIE!!!! (lol)


However, there are a couple here which are tried and true. One example:
127. The last __(hammer)___ you will ever need. - An oldie but goodie.


Now, I realize swipe files are intended to be springboards off of which to brainstorm ideas. So my point here to the newbies: feel free to download. Just make sure you realize that there are some very vague and wholly useless, over-generalized swipes here mixed in with several decent ones, so proceed with caution.

All in all, thank you for sharing with us I know it's free, and we appreciate your time.
Danielle

Thanks for your valuable feedback Danielle. I fully agree with you. Templates are for getting ideas and of course there need to be a process of shaping the perfect headline. However it can be hard to start with a blank sheet and templates really can give ideas and speed up the process.

I've been holding myself back, not to comment on this thread, but I couldn't any longer.

It's obvious this is the work of an amateur who knows nothing about how/why/when words and phrases work in copy. I almost think this was a bad, clueless attempt at my "Head-Libs."

If anyone wants to see how this is really done, just go to my blog in my signature and sign up. You'll get my Head-libbed versions of the currently best-selling headlines on clickbank. Certainly more meat and more usable than "The Hottest __________ Anywhere."

Like I said... I wasn't gonna say a thing. I sort of sat back and have chuckled at this, but it seems some newbies think this is something worth having. I just felt compelled to call a spade a spade.

Hi lvraa

Thanks for sharing. I needed inspiration like this. Of cause I know that I have to work with the headlines and make them my own - to make it work.

MontelloMarketing I appreciate that you talk honest to me, but it is kind of not fun to be smashed by a big warrior promoting his own site... I understand you may have some really good stuff on your site so I'll check it out and give you fair feedback.

I think The Big Yellow Guru reluctantly helped you and saved you some time as well. I don't know him, but I have heard his advice is solid.

Lightbulb Re: 150+ Headline Templates, faster and smarter Headlines!

MontelloMarketing I checked your ebook (required opt-in). Look like you put a lot of effort into it so thanks for sharing it for free.

I have to ask you to explain however why more or less all of your headline examples are more like a section of text. Headline needs to be short for complying with SEO guidelines and in my experience the max. is 100 chars to avoid being cut in SERP.

This is a random picked example from your ebook. It is 138 characters long which if way too long in my opinion...

I'm trying to get on top of headline writing and I appreciate feedback. I did not call myself a Guru and I would like to continue the conversation here so we can all learn and not just send everyone to his site and opt-in to pick up an ebook....

Although it's a great resource for an experienced
copywriter, I think it can be greatly improved
by supplying real life examples under each
headline.

And on a sidenote, 154 formulas are too many, too much choice, if you
can nail it down to 25, it would be gold.

Remember: less is more!

Okay... you go complying with SEO whatever. I'll continue writing copy that pulls in millions of dollars.

Um... really? Do I have to teach you this? Seriously?

Lars... let me just take a deep breath and slow down here.

You know what? Not worth it.

I've been schooled. Thanks Lars. Please teach us more about this copywriting thing. I hope to someday be able to get SEO traffic like you!


sigh.

Spot on that is how I fell too, I'm sorry that sharing my swipe in good faith ended up with a conversation like this.... Not really brining any value to the table.

I completely agree! We just find it hard to communicate.

I'm not aware of your money sites but your blog could use a hand. Alexa 384.000 is not a lot. My main blog (tripwire magazine – Graphic and Web Design Blog) has alexa 7.600... and yes I know it not a exact technology but it gives a pretty good indication and I'm pretty happy about my 320.000 visits last month.

Hope we can share ideas and experience some other time in a friendly tone and without being called an amateur.
