As a website promoter or affiliate marketer, your primary goal is to grab and retain your reader’s attention. You grab their attention with a title that packs a punch.

Additionally, as the marketer for this website, you are hoping not just to get people to try your product. You want to convince them that they want in on a piece of the action. Which of these titles do you think will grab your prospects attention the most?

Acai Berry Secrets Revealed! Lose Weight and Build a Residual Income While Helping Improve Lives.

Notice I didn’t say, Acai Berry Secrets Revealed! Lose Weight and Get Rich While Helping Improve Lives.

There are two legitimate reasons for this;

1. Get rich is definitely designed to grab your attention. But that promise is made by virtually every other work at home website on the internet. It is entirely too over hyped and under delivered. And you’re not trying to sale hype. You’re trying to sale a business opportunity.

2. In article submission, you will be asked to submit key words to make it easier for your potential reader to find your article. In the case of the first title, your key word terms are acai berry, which is rapidly becoming a very competitive search phrase and residual income. Why residual income? Good question. In using the word residual income you are now marketing to people who are looking to make money on line in addition to those hoping to lose weight. Residual income is not only a less competitive term, but it may also grab you that one marketing genius as a part of your downline. This should be making perfect sense to you as an MLM marketer.

Say you are promoting the weight loss aspect of acai berry. And your website is based on direct rather than MLM sales. Consider these titles;

Here’s something to keep in mind if you are new to article writing as a way to promote your work at home business. The longer the title and the more relevant it keywords are, the better your chances of getting ranked high and increasing your article’s longevity in the search engines.

Final note:

In structuring your article’s title, you want to include at least two keyword phrases in a non-obtrusive way. For instance acai berry, lose weight or acai berry, residual income. If at all possible, you want your primary keyword to be at the front of your title. This gives the internet spiders something to munch on immediately. You’ll be amazed at how well this will help your article’s ranking. But above all, you want to create a title that packs a big enough punch for the reader to want to click on the title to continue reading.
