Insert Controversial Title Here

Everyone on Triond wants more views. It improves your viewership, gives you more feedback and increases your royalties. Different writers use different tactics to get more views. Some people try to write a series of articles, to keep former readers coming back for more. Other people load their work with keywords, to attract new readers. A few writers link back to their older articles in their new articles. One of the quickest, easiest and most effective ways of getting more viewers is to use controversial topics.

People love controversy. People love reading about the latest gossip and the newest scandals. If you want to get a lot of views, you can tap into this market. By using controversial titles, you can attract a large audience, even if there is absolutely nothing controversial about your article. If you are writing an article about a pop star, you can use a title like “Pop Star dies suddenly at age 25″. Even though it isn’t true, the title will have a link to your article, in the form of the pop star’s name. It is also highly likely that people who find your article looking for news of the pop star’s death will enjoy reading your article. Odds are that they want to read all the news and gossip they can on this person.

Controversial titles are simple to come up with. If you are talking about food, you can claim there is some link between a certain vegetable and a serious disease. If you are talking about the economy, you can come up with an article title along the lines of “*Bank Name* Collapses” or “Sterling Currency inflation reaches 1000%”. Sometimes the key to get more readers for your articles is to “play with the truth”, and that is what we all want really, isn’t it?
