Quick! What is "Dirty Sexy SEO" you ask?
It's a revamped Cosmo title. Would you have looked at this post if the title was:
Make Your Titles Resemble Those on Cosmopolitan and See How Many More People Read Your Posts!
Fact is, enterprising SEOs have done some research, and have discovered that making your blog titles resemble those on Cosmo really do pull in a lot more readers.
I've been doing a little research of my own, and when one of my posts gets poor readership, I tweak the title until it goes up. So if you thought you were losing your mind, relax, it was just me.
Using the January 2008 Cosmo cover, these would be my titles:
- How to Stay Hot for SEO
- Google Astrologer 2008 - SEO Predictions
- Fab Directories
- SEO Diva - the Secret Reason I'm Smiling
- SEO Sessions That Ended in the ER
- Feel Happier! 20 Ways to Make SEO Even Better
- Yowzer! 40% of SEOs Do This in Their Sleep
- Top SEO Experts Share New and Naughty Link Strategies
Ya know, I really like some of these titles - I may be using them in future postings!
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!
P.S. Six hours later, I rank #1 on Google for the keyword phrase "dirty sexy seo." What an accomplishment!
See my challenge in Stay HOT for SEO.
