When it comes to social media, and assuming that you want attention, you need to command attention.

If you are generating the content, spend some real time coming up with an amazing title. Folks that are submitting UGC have the luxury of changing the title to be the most suitable for where they are submitting to.

Nice post Brian. It’s always fun to see creative minds masterfully created unique and compelling titles......and thank you for the mention!  (I on the other hand just get lucky once in awhile with a fun title)  :P

Great post (can’t believe I missed it until now). Need to get my head out the clouds.Thanks Brian and Shana for the mention. Valuable examples there of how powerful a title can be. I’m sure Jeff’s title change (as well as his profile) was one of the instrumental factors in one of my earliest blog posts going hot, here at Sphinn.
