Finding the right title for posts in evergreen niches.

5 replies
Of course in niches such as weight loss, acne, etc, there are a super-huge amount of posts out there. All types of names, titles, blah blah blah. I want mine to stand out, of course, but not stand out as in not ever be seen in search engines due to their seemingly randomness.

Thus...

Okay, lets take this as an example: "Best At-Home Gyms".

I know it's good to use numbers some times, and as 3 are discussed, say, "The 3 Best At-Home Gyms".

But then again, it's not very appealing... as in it doesn't "wow" me. Does it "wow" you?

What about something like... "3 At-Home Gyms You Can't Live Without".

Comparing these, what do you think would be best in terms of SEO, being clicked on when seen, just overall. Thoughts? Advice?

Also!!

Say the site is called "Muscle Building". Does that mean in search engines the post would appear: Muscle Building | Best At-Home Gyms? That's always how it works, right?... the site name, then the post name?

Mucho appreciated.

    That's usually done by SEO plugins, such as All-in-one-SEO.

    They'll format your page titles in this format:

    yourpagename | yourpagetitle

    (or the other way round, plus you can chose the separator...)

    Cheers,

    You need to develop a compelling title that is fascinating to your target audience. In order to do this, you must understand your target audience.

    A good title will not appeal to everyone. Developing a title that is broad in nature will not do as well as one that aims directly at someone with a specific interest. The goal is to find out more about the people who are interested in what you have to offer.

    Something like "Best At-Home Gyms" is hardly inciting.

    This will probably work better:

    You should check out the thread here.

    It's mostly about catchy subject lines in emails to optimize your open rates but it's interchangeable with article titles. There's a bunch of advice in there that would probably be of use to you.

    I agree with Eddie. You have to know your audience in order to come up with something compelling. Also, try to stay within the character limit. Search engines usually only read the first 60 characters.
