The two titles I've most recently gotten the most response on my blog were "Don't Buy Into Blogger Fear" and "God Bless Susan". Another favorite was "Thank You." I think a key is to make the titles short but also evocative. Nettie www.nettiehartsock.com Hi Mike,

interesting question. The two titles I’ve most recently gotten the most response on my blog were “Don’t Buy Into Blogger Fear” and “God Bless Susan”. Another favorite was “Thank You.” I think a key is to make the titles short but also evocative.

It's the title that gets me to click open any particular blog post since the title is all I can see. Consequently, I've been working really hard to improve my own blog titles!
